Floating Twice

This tune was written during an intensive solo practice session in the basement rehearsal space I leased near Berklee College of Music. It was a cold, grimy basement along Boylston Street with wires hanging from the ceiling and fast food kitchens above. As it was well after 3:00am, my mind was slightly in a dreamlike state and I nearly fell asleep twice while practicing. I remember the peculiar, floating sensation of drifting off while still playing notes, and I developed this tune from that feeling. The strong riff at the end, featuring Felix on bass clarinet, is a nod to my roots in rock music.
