about

Awakening
The main sound on this is a 100 year old pump organ that had found it’s way to my studio a few months before Diana and I began working on this album.
A pump organ is essentially an enormous harmonica. The reeds are similar to harmonica reeds, but much bigger, and you pump bellows with your feet that push air through the reeds (Pressing a key on the keyboard lets the air through to that note.) It has a big, resonant bass sound, which is used on this track. It sounds a bit like a prairie church service in House of the Grandmother (A pump organ or piano would have been used in small town churches 100 years ago, if they were lucky enough to have a keyboard) and like a circus calliope in Thirteen Ways to Free a Crow.
