Samples I Used

All the samples are mixter, except that my friend Sky Goodwill recorded the coyotes and gave me permission to use them.

Original Samples

I used existing mixter samples and my friend's sample from my sample set.

Process

I morphed the crickets and the piano files in Wave Goodbye into MIDI, and then assigned them new MIDI voices. Then I added the coyotes and teru's wonderful rhythm track.

Other Notes

The coyote sample was created using a cell phone to record.

I wanted to meld disparate pieces into an ambient work, but when I remembered the wonderful loop track, I shifted gear immediate into minor-key groove territory.
It's a total departure for me, except for the coyotes, which are a favored morph subject of mine.

Our Texas coyotes howl now, too,
and rabbits flee everywhere.
