Vernal Passages by d york
Go figure! An "ambient piano" album from d york. This is a first for me but likely does not sound quite like what you would think for the description. These tracks were created April 28 - May 5 (hence the track titles). I never studied Latin but I like how it worked for these tracks.
Piano started the tracks and a minimum of synths were added. Morning and evening field recordings from outside my house were utilized. I used the same process for all the tracks but I hope there is sufficient variety and moods.
The album starts off quite "happy" sounding but goes through a number of progressions. By the end, the rain has come and things get a bit darker.
A special note of thanks goes to Paul Mallatratt and Pietro Zollo for previewing this album. In fact, Paul suggested combining the tracks which led to the continuous mix. This is my preferred way to listen to this album since given the identical method of creation, all the tracks flow together rather nicely. That's why it's first vs. last.
I hope you enjoy this diversion from my usual modular synth centric music. As always, thanks for listening and your support.
