    Craig aalders

    answering some questions. We have already observed his ambient / electroacoustic work here.

    [1. IDEA]

    ■ The A. O.: The track from “After the Slow Fade” that we prefer is “Footprints”. Can you tell us how it came to light?

    ► Craig Aalders: Footprints came to light in a moment of inspiration based around a particular sound combonation of electric guitar, modulation pedal, and tape delay. Compositionally it began with the opening trem melody that starts the track and continues throughout.

    ► This is a weightless dream. We move seamlessly between the tonic and subdominant major chords in a vast atmosphere, that feels both intimate and infinite. Each moment dissolves delicately into the next, reminding us that beauty still exists and asks no questions.
