With the holiday weekend unfolding, I opted to keep the same typical schedule for this week's composition: two or three short sessions, and then an editing/arranging session. This one's got a slightly faster tempo than last week, but is a bit more sparse. Guitar this time is the Res-O-Glas Belmont I built in 2015.

I'd had the thought of doing more DAW processing here--I'd dropped in and then deleted some instances of Ableton's new Tremolo-enabled auto-pan. The Lace Alumitones on this guitar seemed a bit harsh in the bridge position, so I put that track through Ableton's Roar plugin to give it a bit of compression and clipping. There's also the latest version of Valhalla's Supermassive, with a long reverb based on the new Sirius model. (And, as usual, some multiband compression/eq on the stereo.)

The title comes from Mount Sarakura, which has a summit elevation of 622 m.

A synthwave/electro/arp cyberpunk track. How original.
