Just a test post. Here’s my latest track!

This week's disquiet was about creating a track that reflects the climate where it was created. The weather here today is usual for December in the UK- white-grey skies, gentle rain with occasional heavier showers, cold and damp. Many would find this weather depressing - but there is an inherent beauty to it, that I have a soft spot for. And it makes you appreciate the warm lights of home all the more. So, back to basics this week for me, with a piano improvisation. To make it sound more wintry, I rolled off a lot of the high end and boosted the bass of the piano, added a touch of very long (20 second) reverb which had most of the bass rolled off, and played large sections with the una-cordo pedal down to dampen the sound further. My first take got me pretty damned close to where I wanted to be, but I recorded it too hot and it distorted in an ugly digital way. The second take, as is often the case, was lacklustre but I found a few more thematic ideas in it, and this was my third take which I feel captures the mood.
