Uncle Maarten

Story Behind The Song

As a kid, I had an uncle that was basically drunk all the time. He was a "good" drunk though. He used to drift into these unintelligible rants, talking only to himself. I thought (at the time) it was pure poetic magic. This is for you Uncle. I hope they're serving Korbel in heaven.

Song Description

Low fi atmospheric sounds envelop a rambling drunk, with a dark haunting, even chilling effect. The rambling seems to be placed sonically in the "head" of the drunk, as he essentially talks only to himself.
