about

Probably my most successful attempt at making music if public response is anything to go by. I like this track. It was sort of an evolution from an older track of mine called Antilove* where the aim was to find one basic bass line and see how many ways I could explore it without making the track dry. People tell me the opening piano riff is very beautiful. I played it on a computer keyboard. Tee hee.

It samples a recent video game character who's dialogue I completely rearranged syllable-by-syllable because I think that kind of thing sounds cool. Halfway through the track I realised I had gotten her to say "Spark Minder". And that's how the track title was born.

I want to make a video game now where a boss or mini-boss is called Spark Minder. That's for later though.
