about

I began composing 'Finite II’ in December of 2016, not long before I released its predecessor. The idea of it commencing with the closing notes of “Whitman’s Challenge” occurred to me and it simply snowballed from there. The EP is comprised of some back material, an old demo written by Zack Ordway (just like FI contained one as such), and quotes from my back catalog, but mostly fresh material. It is perhaps my most harmonically dense release to date, and undoubtedly the most demanding string arrangements I’ve ever composed.

I recorded the drums in late January/early February of 2018, then Cam and Sophia tracked respectively. After they were finished, I constructed a mock-up of the EP in Pro Tools and knocked out all of the sound design components (a continually burgeoning interest of mine) and cover art over a period of about twelve hours, purposefully flirting with mild sleep deprivation. Following this, I flew to Florida to begin mixing with Patrick in late March. As with ‘Silly String II’, he later finished up said process and mastered it on his own, doing recalls with me in a mobile fashion.

After listening to this song from beginning to end with his eyes closed, my son (6yo) said... first I was flying in outer space in a monster truck blasting out fire. then i was floating in space with a cat and we were both in space suits. and then i was fighting a giant robot and it turned into 80 more giant robots. but then my fist grew super big and i punched the giant one in the face and it died. music of exceptional creativity, color and virtuosity. :-) ache-horn
