There Are No Answers - Only Choices

about

I wanted to continue the feel of ‘Suicide’ but in a different context. The same rules were applied here, no drums, ambient soundscape, long song-form, loop based theme, LFO automations, and musically emotional drones. Much inspired by Cliff Martinez’s soundtrack to the film Solaris, I was going for a slow introspective piece using glockenspiel samples and slow strings. About half way through morphed and filtered transient noises flick backwards like a sci-fi tape recorder playing memories over and over. The title of the song is a catch line from the film, and has much to do with dreaming process, desire and understanding. Each wave of strings forms a new dream emotion. The track floats through to a bass-tonic resolution of acceptance, but a sadness still lingers unexplained.
