Liner Notes
Today I buried my mom, aged 85. She lived her life with integrity, was highly intelligent, focused, and a generous soul.
Unfortunately, she had a pretty rough go of it the last couple of years and especially the last few months.
So while this track I made this morning is quite sad, and I will miss her more than I can say at this time, I’m not that sad right now, knowing that she is at peace and I take solace that I was able to be there for her when she needed us most.

I used Pianoscaper for the #generative bed of the track and added in ThumbJam strings, and horns. Recorded and arranged in LoopyPro with some fx added for a little more oomph.

Ohh I'm so sorry to hear about your mum, I hope this was ultimately cathartic. You've created a really beautiful soundscape here. Eno-esque.

Thank you for...well...ALL of your comments! I've said it before, but I love your work so my intention was to wait until the end of FAWM to listen to it all at once, but with our shared loss this is something I had to hear.
Genuinely beautiful. You got me tearing up with those soaring strings. I can feel your mothers life floating through all of this. Thank you for your kind message specifically on Daylight, but all of them bring me so much joy and recognition.
She would love this tribute so much. You've got this beautiful knack of speaking without words, and telling a moving story without actually telling anything. This makes me really excited (as if I could be more!) to hear it altogether once FAWM is over.
What you do is important, and what you do is immense. Thank you so much for putting it out there so we can feel it.

So sorry for your loss. You distilled the essence of so many emotions: extreme sorrow, extreme grief, but also hope and even a tiny spark of joy. This is catharsis in a bottle.

That's OK, I think generally speaking my longest and dearest friends on FAWM post on my "wall" or whatever you call this thing... listening to your Mom's song right now... I think I need to crank it, on my studio speakers... aaaahhh nice. Very hypnotic...

I sat down and listened to this on headphones this morning, looking out at the snow that was a soft blue grey in the early morning light. What a profoundly beautiful tribute using this soulful musical soundscape of your Mom’s love and passing. I’m very touched and grateful you shared this, thank you. My deepest condolences.

Sorry for your loss, this is a lovely tribute to your mom. It's very meditative and peaceful. I'd never heard of Pianoscaper and I went right to the app store! I actually have LoopyPro and ThimbJam (which I love).

FAWM has been a creative and emotional break from the chaos.in my life outside my studio door. Your story and the meditation of this song brought me back to some of that real world I still need to be with. I lost my grandmother (99) only a few weeks ago and this was the perfect song to contemplate that with.
Thank you and my condolences.

This sounds beautiful. And the story behind it is beautiful too. It is a tribute to your beautiful mom. The music goes deeper after a while. That’s nice.

I'm so so sorry for your loss Steve. I spent those 6 minutes listening to your cosmic-travelling landscape, thinking of you and your mum. Sending you love and light for the journey ahead ♥️ Thank you for leaning into your music and sharing it with us all.

Oh friend. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom but so glad that you were able to capture this today. It's wonderfully gentle and yet complex and I felt it living in my chest. I hope that you can come back to this when you need it, this moment of your here and now in this difficult time.
