Erstwhile...

The fuzzy effect of both the rhythm and bass passages lends a buzzing energy to this piece...an upbeat mood tinged with the frantic importance of something hinted at yet just beyond perception.

Oldschool techno beats. I've been told it sounds like NES music, which I certainly think is a good thing.
[ 2 6 - 7 6 ] can best be described as simple techno, or perhaps simple electronica. I have always been a fan of very basic techno, such as the simplistic looping tracks of the Mega Man and Metroid video games, and pushed the style in that direction. With the exception of my first piece, the songs were created entirely using 's built in synthesizers and filters. The resulting style is unadorned and reminiscent of earlier video game soundtracks. I've tried hard to give each song a distinctive mood and feel. While I am personally a fan of darker techno, my work tends to be more upbeat and energetic. Each piece has darker passages to it, but there is always a light at the end of the tunnel in a manner of speaking.

Story behind the song
One of the first people to hear this tune described it to me as sounding Jewish. At first I thought he was crazy, but after forcing myself to listen to this piece objectively, I had to agree. There is something about the progression of the central theme of Erstwhile... that indeed sounds, for lack of a better adjective, Jewish. The fuzzy effect of both the rhythm and bass passages lends a buzzing energy to this piece that is a close compliment to VARIABLE E. Both this piece and VARIABLE E share a similar upbeat mood tinged with the frantic importance of something hinted at yet just beyond perception. Give this song a listen, and if you like it, be sure to download it and crank it at the next bar mitzvah you happen to attend ;)
