We Travel By The Stars
Dreems “In the Desert”
The vocal sample at the start of this track sets up the idea of traveling a great distance with Moses promising to lead the Israelites across the desert, and the music follows through by sounding like a journey. The track has a strong sense of lateral progression, and moves through a few distinct phases while keeping a rhythmic thread through the piece. I’m particularly fond of the bit midway through with the slick lead guitar and a bass part that suddenly sounds quite confident. That’s like the part on the arc of a learning curve where you’ve done enough to feel sure of yourself as you move along.
