This is unbalanced with bold, recurring phrases that give way to an eerie sense of instability, tracing the unraveling of confidence into tragedy. Dramatic and unsettled, the music lingers between conviction and doubt.

very cool Ken. i definitely get the "unraveling" vibe from this. i see what you mean about the feeling of instability
Thanks Budo! I hope this retained just barely enough structure to not be heard just as noise. Thank you for having a listen, it means a lot to me.

Your own words actually say it all. At first, I wondered what more I could say.
But, "The Unraveling" generally means that an existing structure, system, or situation is completely falling apart.
But I don’t agree in this case. I think you keep the control and stability. Listening I can imagine a person under severe stress but not loosing her emotional stability.
The piece uses an "unbalanced" framework. You used a Steinway Model B preset to deliberately contrast "bold, recurring phrases" against an evolving musical breakdown.
So, from my perspective there is ”enough structure”.
Excellent work again.
I'm still amazed that every time you have something completely new, it's completely different from everything you've done before.

Thank you Stig, I really appreciate your insights!! Great to hear there is enough structure here. There is a constant balance struggle in my system even more than before with recent updates I have done where it can be too mechanical or too random and my system is slowly migrating from a roll of the dice to a nudging and shaping of a performance with still a lot of audience of experiments.
