This is my first album using only soft synths. I still employed the Triton as a MIDI controller, but all the instrument sounds are 100% virtual.

In terms of songwriting (or lack thereof), it's pretty much the same old test-level formula of repetition and improvision that you've come to know and love ignore all these years. The instruments, effects, and mix just sound a little different.

So we can think of this album as a learning experience, like a city walk is a warm-up to a hike. Hopefully the real hike will come next. And not just yet another warm-up.
