This track took about 20 hours to record in July 2009. The 2011 edit/remix/master took about 4 more hours, during which process I removed about 34 seconds and tweaked things a little. This track came together with very little fuss, and revitalised my confidence in my ability to put together a tune.

The eagle-eared(!!) among you may recognise the main motif from an earlier track.

Beautiful - very dreamy and slightly mysterious mood, and those filter sweeps are just hypnotic.

When I snap my fingers you will wake up and remember nothing.

Now where was I?

Which filter sweeps were you referring to?

Glad you liked it.

That was gorgeous.

You really have captured the best of the 80s while remaining totally contemporary.

Every works together 100%

Beautiful harmony and choral sounds at 5:00. Really nice when the main theme comes back in at 7:00.

Another good piece. Parts of it put me in mind of Sisters of Mercy. I enjoyed it. Thanks.
