Brecon Half Light ( Video by Nick Cobby)
A lot of the tracks on this EP stem from ideas that have evolved over a long time, however Half Light is fairly new and came together pretty quickly. Its hard to pick a favourite from the EP but this track definitely does a good job of showing what were all about and has established itself as the EPs lead track. The building atmosphere in the background for the intro is made from layers of time stretched samples, pitched all over the place and then sent through one of the Micheal Norris plugins which gives a feeling of sunrise. The track started with the drums and bass and we added layers and layers of percussion and snare elements at different pitches to almost create a melodic phrase. There were loads of previous versions of the main melodic parts that didnt quite work but after the skippy feel of the drums established themselves, the rolling and delayed brokenchord arpeggiated synth parts came fairly naturally.
