Circlejourney: (booklet commentary)

Another track from the same abandoned project that The World as We Know It was meant to be released on, Frosted Glass quotes two of my old tracks: Frost and Clockwork (again) and Hyalomancy. The title is a combination of the titles of both. I always thought the two were oddly compatible, and this piece bears that out.

Just like the previous track, Frosted Glass is nostalgic in both style and content, sort of an account of gazing through broken windows into a blurry past with a distinct sense of loss for what one left behind there.

It’s inspired, as a lot of my work is, by the works of Joe Hisaishi, legendary composer of the soundtracks of such films as Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke. His work formed the soundtrack of much of my childhood and was one of several things that inspired my love for the major pentatonic scale.

It was incredibly satisfying to draw and adjust blending modes on the glass shards in the image, which form a half-mask over the face.
