Hi everyone,
Lonely Blackbird is out today.
It began with a sound — a blackbird singing in my backyard in Vihti, recorded on a quiet morning. It just arrived, as it seems to do every year. That recording opened a door for creating this song.
The lead voice is a sax-type sound from the ASM Diosynth, a digital wind instrument that has become one of my favourite ways to play melody. Underneath there's a Rhodes-type sound, bass, and a softer voice filling the space between. Instrumental, unhurried.
You can listen and download it here on the site, or find it on Spotify or other major streaming platforms.
Thank you for being here.
