Meeting a Deer God on Yonah Mountain
By sleepside on May 24, 2026 11:59 pm
This is inspired by a hike in which my wife and I saw a deer less than 20 feet (6 meters) away from us, totally unbothered by our presence, majestic in the golden hour light. We both agreed it must have been a deer god.
The bridge directly uses part of the 1928 recording of Vaughn Williams's "The Lark Ascending." (In the USA, this recording is considered public domain).
Other than this, I have used Christian Hansen's Tunnel Bodhran sample pack for low drum, noise for snare, my own lyre for the main lyre part, a triangle synth bass, an FM-based organ, my own recording of a rainy forest, and bone and bug sounds from MrdrCat
