Gently Gigantic

from Miscellany by Michael Bentley

/

about

This track was constructed entirely out of samples of Gentle Giant tracks, and was produced for the compilation Knots, issued by Thousand in 1999. The descriptor of that release was, "thirteen electronic artists from North America create new music from samples of one of prog rock's giants," and so we did. Immensely fun to work on, though I suppose I was less a fan of Gentle Giant than several of other prog bands. I recorded this in Boston while staying with my fiancée (now wife) in March 1999.
