Story

One of the tracks on my last EP, "sruti marta layah pita", was written in a rather 
distinctive fashion.  Mashed out of my head, I felt like making some ambient, and in 
three hours it was done.  In a similar state two days ago, I decided to try and do the 
same thing again (being rather sick of spending several months on each track).  

I didnt quite manage it - it took me about 10-12 hours instead.  Still, I'm very pleased 
with it, much more so than most of my tracks.  I think there's a lesson there... ;-)

I wouldnt be surprised if it comes across as happy to some people, but I think its
bleak as fuck.
