Ranne
Antti, a friend of mine, broke his wrist in a soccer
game. Right after he had called and told me the news,
I got an inspiration, went to my piano, started
playing it and found the idea for this tune quickly.
Antti's wrist has been well for many months now but
I got this song finished not until now. It's a bit
sad to realize that injuries heal more quickly than
I make music :-/. Well, I have been learning the
harpsichord and Francois Couperin's classical hit
songs. To hear my output on that matter, try using
Napster. Look for Couperin. Or then you can go to

When composing this tune,
I think I got some influence
from Les Lis Naissans composed
by Francois Couperin in the
1700's.
Go listen to that!
ranne = wrist
The instrument is sampled
from a Roland C-80 digital
harpsichord and deliberately
degraded not to take too
much space.
Play this tune on repeat.
The "ending" is not that
good :). By far the best
part is at 0:29-0:58, IMHO.
