This particular track is a pure experiment, I was recording my acoustic piano, using some mechanical rubber mutes for a different project, and did this take just for me as a test. I didn't know what to do with it, and abandoned. Then, I overdubbed many different instruments over the past few months, an upright bass+acoustic drums rhythm section, an unexpected old-schools synth. Later I added an orchestral section.

There's a lot of work on this track but still I don't know where it's going nor what was i attempting when I started it. An experiment, a true one.
