"The recording and the story behind it were so pure and real that I couldn't do much. I used the recording with almost no processing and then a simple melody came out naturally. The drone of a Lyra 8 sustains the entire piece and it blends perfectly with the soundscape of the recording. "Promises" is a statement about leaving, coming back and imagine a different end of our stories."
