#instrumental #drumnbass #birdsong

Last summer my family vacationed in western Maryland, and we went to Swallow Falls State Park. In the woods there, we heard a hermit thrush, which has a very distinctive song. Very musical, kind of like a flute, but the bird sings these ghost notes at the end of its melody that sound like it's singing it's own echo/delay. I thought it would be interesting to incorporate the thrush's song into some kind of electronic track, and that's been on my to-do's for this FAWM

To make this song, I found a sample of the hermit thrush at naturesounds.ca, and then slowed it down / pitched it down to where I could figure out more or less what the thrush was singing. That became the main bass line/theme, and then I added other parts around that

Kind of short, because this is about as far as I'm interested in taking it. This is another #undercat production. Sable is too zonked right now to care that I've got birds in my headphones
