The songs in this album:
Dimtr the Imp: A happy imp skips through a forest meadow, then something gets him irritated, leading to him going full demon, and then back to a happy imp again.
The Engineer’s Daughter: A song in 11/4 time
Blood on the Stones: I saw the movie “THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN” which inspired me to write this Irish like song.
Can’t Wake Up: Did you every have a day where you just could fully wake up? I did one day and I wrote this song
Ipso Facto: The name came to me after I wrote this, Kind of goes with the recurring musical phrase
Glow at the end of the Hole: My mother-in-law recently passed away from Alzheimer’s. It was really tough, especially the last few years. We knew the end was near and could see the “Light at the end of the tunnel”, but darker for us. I wrote this song to represent that chaotic time
Estrange: This is my first tango
Wisps of Mist: This song alternates between a Hungarian Minor in A scale and A# Lydian with #2 #7. I use my scale program I wrote in python to find these two scales that overlap well. It uses scales commonly used in exotic surf rock
Don’t Tempt Me: This is an example of a song that started from something simple; use grace notes in melody. It has a sort of contemporary swing revival feel to it
Mystic hunter: Originally titled, “Stalking Otherworldly things”, a Folk/Fairy Tale type vibe.
