Music from sleeplessness
Sometimes I just can't sleep.
I lie in the dark trying to shut down, but it doesn't happen. I try to relax, but I end up estimating the total wall area of the room and the area taken up by the furniture, and then working out one as a percentage of the other, to a few decimal places. I can't help it.
So I get up, sit in front of my computer and start messing around with cheesetracker. Usually this just results in horrible noise, but sometimes I end up with something I like.
Last night produced "Yet another" [ogg|mp3]. I might have been listening to to much Wagon Christ. Or eaten too much cheese.
Have a listen. It starts out with a metallic drum'n'bass beat over distorted piano, but quickly changes to something else entirely.
