I&#8217;m not saying the 2 will sound similar or that the new track will be in any way derived from this one; it won&#8217;t. But the feel&#8230; this is the closest i&#8217;ve come to the feel i want.<\/p>\n<p>Both songs speak of&#8230; a sort of spiritual plane. In the Jasper song case i mean to be vague, dark and impenetrable, with a hair of children&#8217;s far away, impossible dreamland thrown in. With this older track i was speaking as concretely as i feel possible about\u00a0these\u00a0matters.<\/p>\n<p>The entire Amnesis album is a reflection on spirituality and religion and this track comes near the end. Rather pompous subject material i realize, but it tried REALLY hard to keep it defracted and fresh. In other words, i had no intention of hitting anyone over the head with\u00a0the\u00a0subject material. It&#8217;s subtle, avoids as many cliches as i could, and is carefully planted throughout for the discerning.<\/p>\n<p>Hmm&#8230;. i&#8217;m not helping dispel the pomposity am i?<\/p>\n<p>Okay, never mind. Today we have a a track i made a few years ago that has the same ballpark feel i want this new one to have and since i gotta fill posts day in and day out (with a week off here and there. yes, i&#8217;m back) i&#8217;m a&#8217;playin&#8217; it.
