I haven’t been well the last few days, mostly sleeping and dreaming.
One day I was remembering an old friend of ours, who still is very dear to us, but to whom we haven’t spoken for a long time.
Around the time we hung out, I was trying to make a film about a Toad that sat underneath a giant tap to keep itself alive. I needed a soundtrack, so I stealthily rigged up the old Juno and programmed it up with a crazy organ noise. S’ was out at the previously mentioned friends house and came back in a rather chilled mood. Unprompted, she sat at the keyboard and straight out played this, I had the 4-track ready to go and caught it.
Many years later I finished the film, and here it is.
I watched it a few days ago and realised that behind the toad thing it’s a concealed love letter from us, to our dear friend.
This post is for her.
