About This Album
2024 Remastered Version
A short album of two halves, although all tracks have a theme of technological change in society. The first two songs are novelty songs about social media; the Cat Phone Song inspired in part as a satirical rebellion against the art-of-the-obvious. Sonus is an instrumental piece about the ecological destruction created for experimental radio show ArtsLab. Rhapsody On A Siren's call is a previously unreleased romantic tune for solo piano, originally composed for the ArtsLab opera I, Leviathan. The final track, The Glass Screen, began as a fast-paced, catchy computer game theme of the sort that I had been composing for twenty years or so. Live piano parts, and a new narrative was added to create a contemporary piece of music that reflects on my musical past. |
