For Christine
In the winter of 2010, a season marked not only by chilling winds and snow-covered memories but also by the profound void left by my grandmother's passing, I found myself underneath a tumultuous wave of sorrow.
No words could adequately capture the multitude of emotions that I found myself wrestling with. I found myself in the very late (or early) hours of the days, I would explore resonant sounds that would connect to how I was feeling.
The choice of "Ardour" as a title perfectly summarized the passionate fervor that echoed the inner emotional upheaval I was experiencing. I distinctly remember how much the creation of those original recordings felt like the death of a lullaby. A symbiosis through sound.
Recently, I merged these musical pieces into a singular, cohesive track - enhancing its resonance through Dolby mastering in anticipation of a reissue.
Now titled: "For Christine" and adorned with new artwork, this record stands as an invitation for all who are willing to embark on a heartfelt voyage through their own emotion.
