| Summary |
"Created during the 2020-21 pandemic, 'Sunrise' derives its title and lyrics and more from 'The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise, ' a popular tune written during the 1918-20 influenza pandemic and subsequently recorded by many noted performers (including Fritz Kreisler, Django Reinhardt, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Les Paul and Mary Ford, and Willie Nelson). 'As we watched the world unravel around us, that song really resonated, ' Bradshaw notes, and the two used it as inspiration for Sunrise, with melodic and harmonic material from the song itself appearing in phantom traces and its lyrics reconfigured. Sunrise's starting point was a soundscape that Cooper sent to Bradshaw. Bradshaw then layered it with melodies, motifs, vocal scrapes, hisses, whispers, and screams before sending it back to Cooper for sonic manipulation and the adding of new material. Their compositional-improvisational back and forth continued for a year, resulting in Sunrise's inviting yet intense multilayered sonic dialogue."--Bandcamp.com |
