This is a note I wrote to myself on how to play this song.  I’m playing trumpet/flugel in Spaceman Spliff:

This is the Aperion version of the classic Donald Byrd track, “Blackbyrd”

The numbers in the title of this piece of music refer to pitches on a 12 note chromatic scale. A 12 sided die was rolled to generate 4 random pitches to use for improvisation. Therefore, a Bb instrument like the Trumpet on this recording uses the pitches G-A-Bb-D.

We’re working on a new album.  Its definitely experimental.  Perhaps some of it falls under the sub-genre “dark ambient” as well.
