Dreaming in Analog, one of two synth-inspired space odysseys on the album. These two synth odysseys are inspired by the ambient music I was turned onto over the course of the pandemic from our weekly Holotropic Happy Hour live streams. I was only marginally exposed to this genre prior to these streams, but I gained an appreciation for chill, meditative, and often trance inducing nature of its free form, ever-evolving droning tones. In an attempt to capture the analog warmth and generative nature of the genre, this track was recorded in one single session, with very little editing or post-production work in an effort to leave the track in a real and raw form. And while I have limited access to analog hardware, I did my best to use software synthesizers which are modeled after their hardware counterparts, hence the title “Dreaming” in Analog.
