Make it Rain

from Wires in the Sky by Sleet

about

Guitar drops pieces of song here and there, and then ramps up a blistering head knocker. The kick drum comes up under. A simple groove develops, growing an increasingly complex drum pattern under it. A mosquito buzzes through here and there. Tiny soft high bass notes decorate the melody. Before the five minute mark a faster groove comes in, with high bass triplets. The guitar scratches it all out, and the synth whistles a lonely alien lullaby in the background. At six minutes it snaps into a Sleet pump, and the bell-toned synths drops notes into a deep water well, the bass smoothly ripples under until the drums pop the bubble and the guitar comes back in with an urgent message from some faithless bankrupt sponsor. Around nine minutes Sleet takes the drums down to a one-legged cripple march, and the guitar decides to make one last stand for art. The synth sweeps it all up sweetly, and weather makes a final desperate plea for our distracted attentions. As we approach the eleven minute mark things get very low and dusty. The synth shivers into flight, the guitar blasts way off in the distance and Sleet pulls it back. It finishes in jerking spurts and one last note struck high.
