I wish I could take the girls back to our younger selves to show them, to make them understand how fast time moves and how quickly life changes. I could impress upon them the things I think I’ve learned. And yet again, I don’t wish that at all. Let them find out on their own...
The last version (C) is where I added some harmonic seasoning. The song has an ABA form. I had to redo the first A multiple times to strike the balancing act between “artificial sophistication” and “chords that sound fresh and convey: don’t take this too seriously”. For B I was...
And yet, there’s still activity there. The first “song,” A Confusion So Thick You Forget Forgetting” is mostly just…silence and emptiness. But not quite. Listen carefully; there is a distant dull droning and occasional bursts of static and heavily distorted musical chords recorded at such...

At first the chords were low and tragic, haunting, and filled with subtle anguish. Gradually, they rose and fell with ore power and passion; they filled the huge space and my chest with awe and terror. I could sense and see God creating endlessly one Big Bang after another, an infinite...
