A curtain of gloom Like evening mist of autumn Hangs in poetic brain.

This was recorded in September 2017 as I first experimented with the four HD camera setup. Things were not coming together easily or going well. This darkened my mood. I must of been daydreaming of 16th century festival music mixed in with my own swirling thoughts.

Solo live improvised performance, Kurzweil K2600R MIDI module, Infinite Response MIDI controller digital keyboard. I put on the walnut veneer on top of the keyboard since I was so very tired of black metal. Yes, that's a Korg NanoKontrol sitting on top where I change my sounds, connected to a Mac Mini running Plogue Bidule which makes everything work like magic.

A curtain of gloom Like evening mist of autumn Hangs in poetic brain.
