About This Song
An experiment with intertwined piano and guitar riffs.A 12-beat loop is played against an 3-beat arpeggio. This creates an interesting structure that a melody can weave through.
Audio Recordings
Raven Nostra and I collaborated to produce this version:
dappled_sunlight_2025-08-25.mp3
Twenty years earlier, I showed these intertwined piano and guitar melodies to Greg Blake, and he recorded me playing them. Greg and I collaborated on the piece, and he produced this version:
dappled_sunlight_2005-12-29.mp3
Change Log
2025-08-15 I migrated the song from Nuendo to MIDI and audio stems. Raven Nostra set up the Ableton Live session using the template that he had created for us previously and imported the MIDI. Raven and I collaborated on sound design. Raven mixed and mastered, and played drums on one track using my Roland VQD-106.
2005-12-29 Greg Blake and I used Nuendo to complete this piece to a certain point.
