This episode comes from the livestream on May 16 2024, the last one before a brief hiatus from streaming. Things start off with the throwback sound of the earlier days of streaming, with a percussive loop created on the cello fingerboard, and the piece develops into a nice acoustic exploration with some nice vernal arco layers. The next piece uses the preloaded percussion sounds I have, and expands on some of the ideas from the first piece, with more effects, and takes things to a more developed place. Things take on a slightly darker tone for the third piece, but with some nice bluesy forward movement in the bass line, which then propels the arco. The fourth piece is a bit jauntier and more upbeat, but not without a sense of wonder, and this piece has some nice development. The fifth piece has a bit of an explorative vibe, with a bit of an eery alien world sound to it, like the theme for some funky otherworldly space exploration. The 6th and 7th pieces are related, and I think at the time I had a concept of being able to edit these two together somehow, which I may eventually do, as the 6th has a brighter sound and the 7th explores a bit more somberness, but both pieces have the same beat and could be intertwined with some production magic. The eighth piece has a bit of a western showdown vibe to it. The final piece has a bit more cosmic brightness, with some fun pizzicato and arco parts popping out of the background radiation.
