Rise

Kind of a celebration that we can do the work and make things better. Together, we can rise to greater places. I like to remember it's a choice sometimes. Every minute. To be hopeful or fearful. To give up or to keep doing the work that's in front of us. Hard choices, but choices that can be made. Also a celebration of flutes. Flutes like this seem celebratory to me. I like to have a little "let's get up and do this" flavor but also some "let's also party" reminders. I started out with an older song I wanted to play around with. A lot of the drum samples were missing. Ended up making a whole new thing. Just did the vocals off the cuff. Flutes and some of the percussion from Behr's free santuri safari sample instrument pack. Female voice is chops of my wife chanting asatoma sadgamaya ... kind of translates into "lead me from darkness to light", goes along with the feeling I had of getting to a better place.
