Another track from my first album, Plague. This one is called "Monstrous moonshine" and it's probably the most straightforwardly joyful track I've made

New album progresses slowly, so I'll reshare some old stuff. This is my recording of "Aquarium" from Saint-Saëns's Carnival of the Animals, from my first album, Plague. I worked from a MIDI file arranged by Ramón Pajares.

When I'm pulling together musical ideas I'll tend to come up with a placeholder album name and cover art to kind of conceptually hold it all in place, though I might completely change them later.
This is my current placeholder and I'm still deciding whether or not I like it
