The Persistence of Memory - official

- morphs into a sort of late-stage Romanticism with twists...
This at times seems to channel Debussy, the Debussy fascinated by Wagner.
(as the title refers to)
This exploits the library Amber (downtuned & messed-with string quartet) by Orchestral Tools in SINE Player. Kind of space grunge strings yet lush. The lead voice is bass flute believe it or not.

I'm contemplating the painting while listening to this. Is this the music the dreamer heard as he slept on the beach? There's a sense of the ocean and melting clocks....

[@Civilizashum]

in fact if it means anything it would refer to the music and remembering Debussy, music I shouldn't know how to do but came to the fore unconsciously. I have a vague recall of not immediately remembering what the title originally was attached to after deciding to use the phrase. I may have been trying to remember "Remembrance of Things Past" and this is all that came.

some of it is a bit melting clocks anyway, though

from 1:47 or so I'm also getting some ocean, and fitful slumber. Jamie Muir on drums punctuating splashes of near consciousness while Dali nods approvingly and sharpens his brushes...

@@edwardgivenscomposer I do so relate to the daunting wide open spaces in certain Dali, for sure.
