So the other day things warmed up. Now, as much as I love winter, and I do, I must admit that the first warm night of the year, well that night just fucking rocks. Everything is alive, the streets were practically vibrating with energy. People were outside past midnight just hanging out, it was great.
I took a long walk and listened to Brian Eno. He recorded some really cool albums here(Hamilton) in the eighties. As I walked around I thought about the various samples he may have took in the same places I was exploring and whether or not he treated them or used them in his ambient series.

this is too awesome for words. you realy nailed this peice. i love the use of texture, especialy the way the light floats around the stoplight. eno does some wild music, i especialy like the ablum he made with david bryne. i think it is epecialy interesting that you were thinking of eno when you did it because like eno you captured the feeling of the environment. keep up the good work TWC.
Thanks man, I am glad you really like it. I was actually really frustrated by this for the longest time, I almost considered not loading it, I am glad I did.
Yeah, "My Life in the Bush with Ghosts" is one of my favorite albums of all time. I especially love the song 'Mea Culpa'. I was lucky enough to hear an old radio session from 1980 where eno played some early experiments from the album and un-used stuff. If I find the link I'll send it to you.
Yeah, Eno's use of environment is one of the reasons why I am attracted to his work.

Thanks man! Ugh, watercolours, I never could do those, they always turn out muddy for me.
Cityscapes are fun though, there is something about all the modernist architecture from the 1960's and 70's which has an interesting nostalgia to it. Twilight is my favorite time of day.
