about

This song started with the three chords -- (Badd11 – D/F# - Amin7) -- that I came up with while practicing one evening in Sofia. The sequence struck me immediately because of its shifting, unstable quality. The melody came right behind it. I recorded it quickly and left it to stew for a while. When I thought to include in on "Prime?" I wanted to galvanize the song’s instability and the tendency for the melody to shift. I topped it off by putting in some contrast – a Bulgarian dance in 7/8 followed by a chiming chord section to lead back to the main body of the song. The song fluctuates between 11/8 and 7/8 time signatures, but I wanted it to be a subtle transition and leave the melody to lead.
