A Memory Hole

I called this piece ‘A Memory Hole’ because I feel like I completely zoned out and went to some other mindspace while working on it.
The loop came from the piano part of ‘Open Again Eventually’ (from 2020’s Bird Rib) and I used SLATE+ASH's Cycles software to make it performative and malleable. From there all I remember is a dreamy blur of sound unspooling, running forwards and backwards… I must have I sat there staring out the window listening to these loops for hours and hours. Through the swirl of notes I felt like I could hear melodies and harmonic footings suggesting themselves, so I picked those out with some gentle overdubs.
This is part of Perceptions, Vol. 6, from Bigo & Twigetti- the full compilation drops July 4.
