Birdwise/Fousek – Freedom to Fail [CS] Ambient / New Age It's not until the title

from the shifting rapid-fire muted textures of ‘Overtime’ to the ghostly bowed tones and ominous swells of the title piece (developed from a track on Guthrie’s solo Nist-Nah release)

A Sunset for Walter was conceived as a loose tribute to the piano works of Walter Marchetti

As I made the four-track recordings I made cassette mixes to listen to
