about

I miss Vangelis. Usually I slave over tracks but this one arrived relatively complete... I guess I had been doing some background processing about his loss, or perhaps I just opened the right mental doorway when I sat down in the writing room.

I LOVE Dan Hartman's New Green/Clear Blue album (released on Private Music in 1989 shortly before Dan's death) and there's something about those spontaneous improvisatory pieces that really connects with me. "The Void" draws from that world and from the deep textures and long reverbs of my favorite Vangelis pieces.

Vangelis, to me, was the kind of master that comes along once in many generations... the kind of master whose own language becomes part of the common one. There is an empty space where a great musician once was.
