I’ve gone
Slipped down that hole
I’m never coming back
Driving deeper
Caught the corner of reality
Got a firm grip
Held on tight
Pulled it all with me
Dragging it all down
Spearing downward
Down
Down
Down.
Hey John338, thanks for your feedback and question. Seeing that I wrote the album almost 10 years ago it’s hard to remember just how long it took. Probably about 9 months of fiddling with ideas on and off. Most of these songs were truly effortless for me - I was just following intuition and focusing on the “space” of each piece. This contrasts to other projects where I have put much larger amounts of time into things like carefully building narratives, rehearsing complex musical parts and recording them, and fussing deeply over sonic balance. A dream diagram has gotta be quick: the more we labour over dreams the more they slip out of our grasp.
The remastering took about 6-7 hours over one week. A lot of care went into getting the analogue saturation just right.
