I fell hard for the opening of airtone’s disOrder, in part because it reminded me so strongly of the Fahey/Cul de Sac album “The Epiphany of Glenn Jones,” which I wasn’t prepared for when I first acquired it, either. So I took that as an excuse for a theme, and Fahey’s late life poverty as the organizing principle and set out down whatever road that was. I was after dynamic range and a little drama. In the end, Vulpes’ piano wraith carries Blind Joe’s soul away from this mortal plane.

The rain was found on Sound Transit, which has a lot of interesting field recordings published with minimal restrictions. I hope that’s not an issue as the site doesn’t seem to be “in the family” at this point.

Stems are posted start-aligned for easy dissection and rearrangement.

Thanks, airtone, and I hope you like it.
