P.S. (a relaxing piano improv - off the grid)

Post by jonetsu »

This is a piano improv done with any metronome disabled. Off the grid so to speak. Once recorded I thought on making it fit the grid since that's the way to go, and then add all kind of other instruments, maybe percussion ?

Then, listening to it several times when doing active relaxation (tai chi, qi gong, etc) I noticed that the 'off beat', the hesitations here and there in the improv were actually expressions by themselves. So I dropped the idea about 'fixing it to the grid'. I'll be quite certainly be adding ambiance synth(s) later on although hopefully this will be done in balance (and respect dare I say) with what's actally recorded.

Here the soundcloud page is playing the following after "P.S." which I find is quite fitting:
