about

Of my various music aliases, Piston Quints is easily my partner Dio's favourite: songs done under the name always rate very well with her, and the quirky character paired with it endeared himself to her pretty quickly. Which is why it kinda surprises me that, of the 12 potential songs she suggested I finish up for the album, only one Piston Quints song made it to the list; "Selected Parafin Works 11-14".

Comparing the sketch to the fully realised song is like night and day, honesty. The original sketch was abandoned due to quickly running out of ideas- and affliction that leads to most sketches or demos getting dumped- and it's a somewhat dreary downtempo piece that's a little too moody for its own good. By comparison, the ideas for the remake formed in my head relatively quickly and, though I was unsure about the direction and arrangement several times in the composing process, the track gradually came together smoothly. Also, it's now a sorta experimental-ish synthpop-y IDM-esque piece of... something. Gonna level with you, I wouldn't know what genre to classify this as, but it's upbeat and it's in a Triplet time signature, so hey!
