My third folk music inspired piece... Inspired by Celtic music and
traditional Norwegian music.

The trilogy consisting of "A Voyage", "Mechanical Forest II" and
"Sleepless Valley", has much in common both in styles, sources of
inspiration and also samples. They are built much in the same way, but
still each of them has elements that the others don't have.

The intro chord progression was inspired by an old unfinished work song by
me. The main melody came to me so easily that I almost feared that I had
ripped it unconsciously, but at the end it seems that I simply had a lot
of inspiration when I wrote it =)
Unlike in "A Voyage" and "Mechanical Forest II" I put heavy vibrato on the
flute to make it sound more Celtic in this song. I also used the Exx
command to make that "falling down and fading away" effect.

The accordion samples are a bit noisy, something that can be explained by
the fact that I sampled _SK's mini accordion myself using one of those
standard PC mics =)

In this song I tried to get the drums as minimalistic as possible. I think
this makes the song kinda nice ;)


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I started this song back in September, and I finished it sometime within
September/October. The reason I didn't release it until now is that I at
one point was thinking of making more out of it. Anyways, because I have
been busy playing around with sequencing I never got the time to do that,
and I never had the inspiration either. 
        Now it's maybe 4 months or so since this song was finished, and it
wasn't until now I listened to it and thought "wow, this song is finished,
this is how I want it to be". So now it's time to get it uploaded ;)

        After this song was finised I have finished one more tracker song
(The City in The Ice Caves), and I will soon release around 4 sequenced
songs in MP3 format. The sequenced songs include a Synth Pop song (Made
using my Yamaha CS2x), an Arabic inspired experimental song (made using my
CS2x), one Jazzy/Poppy/Rocky song (made using my CS2x) and one 80's Synth
Pop thingy made to try out my new Roland D-110...

I hope some of you enjoy this song and that you will also listen to my
new stuff when it is released (even if the MP3 format means bigger files)

=)

 him.
