I recently bought a monstrous old Emu keyboard sampler, and this is the result.

This piece is the result of me trying to widen the influences on my music. It is an experiment to see whether an old dog can learn new tricks, or, in other words, whether I can write something that doesn't sound like Depeche Mode or anything else…

My evening challenge: compose and record a piece in an evening. Song titles will reflect the time of day when the day's light slips into the darkness of night.
