Tom Rimshot A haunted soundtrack for a wet night on a city street, filled with dimming bulbs, Lynchian cigarette smoke and interdimensional fog from Silent Hill. Speaking of, this track would massively appeal to fans of Yamaoka's work for that series.

about

This piece has been put aside for a very long time, maybe for about 4 years. The intention and the story go back to a time when I was inspired by melancholic swing and jazz records from the 20s/30s/40s and I wanted to compose something different, but yet simple. I was completely a beginner in this genre but felt I could contribute something to it, as I never stopped listening to those old records I am still collecting. The main reason to write this piece was all about mood when sitting in a cozy café house between late afternoon and the early evening with all its unobtrusive environment sounds. The setting of time is somewhere between the age of coffee houses with its ladies & gentlemen and the modern era, which was the reason to use organ synths and typical jazzy beats and a wonderful e-piano on top of it.

And finally, also this track lives from the involvement of the vocals by Jeremy Clarke (jeremyclarke.bandcamp.com), who spent an early field recording memo in a very suitable sound quality with perfect words for this work, completing the deep background of the dreaming protagonist in this song, who perhaps is seeking for solace or a last moment back in the good old times.
