There Are No Words (A Lament for Josiah)

By Matt Patrick on March 10, 2012 3:30 pm

This week I attended a funeral for one of my best friends newborn son, Josiah.
He had a chromosomal abnormality called trisomy 13 and he was on this earth a mere eight days.
There are no words to describe the anguish, there are no words to comfort, there are no words.

Recorded at my house on an M-Box and a single C1000s microphone

Works really well.  Amazing high frequencies cutting in there - so well layered.  Hope Josiah's family are doing ok.
