Had almost forgotten this video - it's the kid that makes it.
We were out hustling the new tracks - always thought this track had a chance:

Back after a lazy labor day weekend (yes - American spelling but it is their holiday ya' know!) and already fighting the heat. 101 yesterday, promising to be 106 later today - so - up early and getting stuff done before it gets too hot. I really like this tempo - 107 bpm for the piece and may end up using it although the track sounds good at 67 / 134 bpm too - it's somewhere in that range. I'm still working out the form of the piece - there are two distinct halves and I have yet to really define the front half. The string melody is well established but this is the first time I'm working it up with the reason string patch so it may take a little while to dial it in.
This clip looks at the transition between the two halves - very basic at the moment but should sound pretty good when it's done.
