This is crazy but in a good way. You certainly capture me and maybe I thought it was a little bit to short. Very good indeed.

Thanks Eko! 'Crazy in a good way'...I'll take that! 

Purple Rhapsody


Really enjoyed the variety in this, James. Great piece. Is this what modern instrumental prog-rock is?

Cheers,
Terry.

Thank you Terry! I don't really know..I listen to a fair amount of prog, old and new, so I guess it rubs off.

this project is really taking me places James. very nice to hear you doing something outside the usual SMB/AS aesthetic. mix wise it is your usual great job. i would maybe HPF the bass drum a little just to get rid of the uber-bassiness. The Weirdstone of Brinsingamen, eh? worth a read?

Ah, Mark, always makes me smile when you drop in for a listen. Wish you were around a bit more, and posting your own music.


The bass drum is actually a 'bombo' and I did HPF it a little, maybe I'll push that a little more.


'Weirdstone...' is a 50 year old fantasy novel, for kids, but it's stuck with me ever since my sister read it to me when I was about 7. It has roots in a lot of different mythologies, including the Arthurian legend, and what makes it for me is that it's set in a real place (various towns and villages around Alderley Edge in Cheshire) Give it go.

well i don't get too much time to record stuff now though i do the odd thing, don't post here though I will if i become more of a regular. i will try that book, some of the best fantasy books are written for kids.
 if you like that kinda fantasy, try Holdsworth's Mythago Cycle, it's for adults and can be a bit hard work, but for fantasy set in reality it's great. and of course, China Mieville's stuff is awesome...The City and eht ytic and Un Lun Dun are amazing examples of reality-based fantasy!

Wonderful track James. 

As usual from you the mix is superb and your insrumentataion is excellent.

My fave part by far is the piano section after the ambient intro. Thats really atmospheric in a great way and very moving musically.

Wonderful guitar playing and tone.

Top stuff.

Very kind John, thanks so much. You're one of the people I go to for inspiration in terms of synth textures.

Enjoyed the listen. Really liked the guitar. Seemed muddy to me, especially the kick drum.

Hi James,

Really cool! Great vibe. I love the vibrato guitar part...well, it all sounds fantastic. Excellent.

Very unique and cinematic sounding...like the soundtrack to a movie that hasn't been made yet. Excellent work...love the guitar
