about

The challenge for this Tunesmiths track was to write a piece connected to water. This composition is split into three parts, all of which contain original instrumentation and sound effects without the use of sampling. The first part aims to evoke the image of the ocean on a still night with perhaps a full moon reflecting off the water.

The middle section, still set at night, sees the focus change to the murky depths of the ocean floor whilst the final part finds us back on the shore as the sun comes up.

The instrumentation on this recording includes a synth wash and keyboard vibes for the first part. For the underwater section: a low keyboard note, bass guitar, ukulele and mandolin (strings scraped instead of plucked), my youngest daughter Martha’s toy piano for the submarine sound and me thumping Martha’s bedroom door whilst the last part has a synth wash, acoustic guitar and the sea at Broughty Ferry beach near Dundee recorded especially for this piece.
