recorded Dec 15-29 2020

we've turned a corner on a new year...
ready for it? i certainly am!
approx 9 months from the initial lockdown, our little side series turns 18!
ready to vote and think about moving out of the house for sure.
thinking a lot these days about how we define ourselves.
what makes us who we are and who really gets to have the final say.
here is a hint: you see them everyday when you brush your teeth.
thanks for making this music part of you.
viva 2021 and beyond...
oxoxoxo
Barry
ps
the cover photo is from our new years eve hike at waterfall glen.
one positive pademic note...taking NYE hikes with wife!
that certainly wasn't a go to NYE party plan before.

about tracks:

Side 18 fission v fusion:
been spending many evenings with the headphones, the rhodes, and the wavdrum lately. here's a glimpse to what what that has been sounding like. fission v fusion. taking things apart to put them together again...

Side 18 saw 6:
sometimes in the midst of a daily ritual, something strikes your fancy and you know whats going on with the rest of your day. The name? the bass line reminds me of a Saw and of course this old modern dance accompanist plays a lot of sixes...

Side 18 choreopoem:
this piece was created through a commission from The Voices and Faces Project to score their crowd sourced poetry film for the World Without Exploitation virtual gala. The 7 min film features a whole bunch of talented folks and will premiere Jan 28th.
