Seiko Hayase asked me to create music for a performance that would see eight dancers moving with enormous brains on their heads to high-light mental health. The piece also embodied a transition out of lock-down and back to creating and performing. The first half of the piece is a slow air, which I composed, called “The Noisy River”. In the second part of the piece the dancers awaken to two traditional slip-jigs.

I produced the track at my studio in Driminidy. I played all parts except the Slip Jigs which Jim Molloy played on the uilleann pipes. I had the track mixed by Tom McCarthy at Baby Forest Studio. www.babyforest.co
