Release date: 29 February 2012

Bing Satellites Soothing Images 31-47 BFW recordings netlabel

Total running time: 1:37:48

The third in the series of live, improvised ambient albums.

Another 17 quiet ambient songs - mainly piano and baritone guitar - with 17 accompanying photographs.

How the music is created:

A 16 bar phrase is played.

That phrase is fed into a slowly decaying 16 bar loop, similar to the one used in Twilight Sessions.

That loop is fed into a slowly decaying 6 bar loop which repeats the first loop every 6 bars, so that soon, there are several layers of the original phrase that interact and create new themes and melodies.

They seem to appear from nowhere, but these new melodies are destined to happen as soon as each note is played in the original 16 bar phrase.

A tasty mix of ambience with melody.
I'm so pleased that you're making use of that gear - I knew I could count on you to deliver and give it a happy home.

Nice stuff Mr BingS.
It's nice to play in the background as I'm typing away and doing my writing up things. Very relaxing. Thanks mate.

Wow that's pretty cool. Can't wait to hear this. Really enjoyed your contributions to the BFW Recordings Christmas Albums where I became acquainted with your music. I often want to create this type of music setting up a looper in a similar fashion but I seldom let myself to take the time to setup looping devices with varying lengths.
