about

This album started a few years ago with some skeleton ideas for the tracks.
I intended to enlist the help of some friends but, mostly due to the size of
the room that I use as a studio, that never happened.

Consequently I filled areas of sound I wanted with anything I had to hand.
The majority was done on a few keyboards, ( Korg Sv1, Microkorg,
Yamaha CS1X, vintage Bina Harmonium), various trumpets and horns,
congas, percussion, tea cups, saucers and bits and bobs.

I hoped that it would develop an identity as it grew. Maybe a singular idea that would give it
cohesion . And for a while it looked like it was going to be some sort of musical/ zoological
study, as animals seemed to feature more than once.

However, over the time period that this was made, we lost a few good friends and it dawned
on me that the album had, largely, become a response to that indiscriminate plucking of life
and the sense of loss that accompanies it.
Importantly it includes joy and I hope the overall feeling that is conveyed is one of thankfulness
and playful positivity.
