So I spent a day in my parent’s basement, a Takamine tuned to open D, played through a Fishman Aura 16, an SM57 and Native Instruments Komplete and tried to record something that has been in my head for a few weeks.

Not sure about all of it. It is definitely a rough cut, but some ideas are  nice. My flatmate Russell suggested trying to get a mandolin feel into the middle 8/16, not sure I managed to pull it off, but the over laying of the guitars hopefully makes this bit sparkle…..it is meant to get over a feeling of pervasive optimism and excitement that you can feel when you’re in the chase.

There is something distinctly cliche about it all, but I’m not sure how else to go about this one…may need to start from a different angle….

Enjoy!
