" ... just another 'exercise' to end-out the hallowed month of April [2023]. April always holds much promise for My creative musical output -- has since I was 17-years-old in '87. Cheers to April!!!
This tune utilized the chirps of tree frogs for its percussive background, and the simple, rambling twiddlings of dreamy synths and percussive accents.
In the [humourous] [paraphrased] words of a Friend ... : 'these sound[s] may or may not have been altered via stretching, scrunching, delaying, reverbing, panning, EQing, distorting, frequency filtering, layering, cutting, chopping, truncating, and altercaton via numerous, other sound-processing techniques.'"

My pitch for Spotify radio:
"A meditative, calm, and soothing, ambient-electronic piece adorned with the hallowed sounds of nature, "Jaded" features Boards-of-Canada-ish textures and loops, yet tips-its-hat to nature, as it features -- for percussion -- the soft, rounded chirps of tree frogs and other night-time jungle beasts! It began -- like most of My works -- as an 'exercise; that is, I don't ever await inspiration to strike, but actually sit down intentionally to compose, audience to peaceful, inspiring 'randomness.'"
