Hey Exit – Else 2

A half hour of instrumental music for baritone guitar, similar in vibe to the first Else tape. It was recorded in a single session in May, not quite improvised but not quite composed, celebrating a creative / spiritual birthday of sorts.

"So writing is the method of using the word as bait: the word fishing for whatever is not word. When this non-word — between the lines — takes the bait, something has been written. Once whatever is between the lines is caught, the word can be tossed away in relief. But that’s where the analogy ends: the non-word, taking the bait, incorporates it. So what saves you is writing absentmindedly."

"What I’m writing to you is not for reading — it’s for being."

– Clarice Lispector, Água Viva
