	Story Behind the Song Valens Lake, my video documentary was filmed shortly before the sudden death of a 7 year old child who accompanied us on the trip. In my sadness, I composed a score for the video which produced these beautiful little soundscapes such as Smoke Ribbon. The soundtrack was recorded over a period of weeks and I believe Smoke Ribbon was recorded in one take. First the bass, then the haunting guitar. Lyrics No lyrics were ever written. Words I felt, would get in the way of the music.
