about

Performed on Knutsen harp taropatch & tenor harp steel guitar.
Like PM1 above, an example of “pure music” – i.e: it’s not “about” anything; it’s a simple little experimental study (though what exactly I’m supposed to be studying I have no idea.) This one began with a pattern of rapidly arpeggiated randomly fingered chords I kept noodling with on a uke. Ultimately, I think the double-strung taropatch gave it a bit more fantasy. As often my case, I studiously avoided thinking theory or even acknowledging the “math” of the fingerboard; to this day, I don’t know what these chords are! I couldn’t even figure out the root key, so pretty much picked one out of a hat, tuning the little harp steel’s two “sub-basses” to a mid-range and a high C. The slide melody on the neck strings is pure fantasy.
