Consider it a little wave from the final piece. Tracked piano and string parts again last night - this is the raw mix - been living with it - should finish the mix tomorrow:

Planning on publishing on Monday - so watch your inbox.
Have a killer idea for the visual too - based on the image that accompanies this piece - it's a coyote wave - but more on that later...
Further development of the Coyote theme this weekend threw up this charming little lullaby development - needs work but I think it is going to sound fabulous with a couple of string patches underneath it.

This set of developments all worked around 108, 109 and 107 Bpms - 108reflects the numbers I'm actually working with but 107 and 109 are both prime and as you probably know - I love prime numbers!
Final piano track this week and strings by the weekend - hope to have this posted and out a week today.

So I'm working through the piece and it's beginning to come together - the main theme and first variation are dialed in and I'm beginning to flesh out the second theme. As is my practice I'll fire up the metronome and start playing the themes at different Bpms to see what comes out and this little blues clip appeared on Sunday. The left hand is a super simple walk down but it's the right hand that caught my ear.

The track's in B minor & I realized that I don't think I've ever played the blues in this key before - which is kind of odd really. Although technically playing the same relative notes - different keys sound completely different to one another - the positioning of the different black and white keys and how they relate to each other change depending on what key you're in - think I might play in B minor a little longer!
The second theme variation comes in at the end - I'll post later on this week the development of the primary theme.
