There is no one who, if he listens to himself, does not discover in himself a pattern all his own, a ruling pattern, which struggles against education.
– Michel de Montaigne, quoted in How to Live, or, A Life of Montaigne by Sarah Bakewell (translation: Donald Frame)
Hope you all are having a good week so far. Today’s offering is an “Odds and Ends” track — i.e. a recording that doesn’t belong to any particular project. Actually, “Ascension Hall” was — I think — under consideration for my Java St. Bagatelles album (2006), but it was too alike other tracks. It also doesn’t have a strong ending (as you’ll hear) though I actually sort of like how it falls apart now.
