Is She Waiting?

Written and Recorded in 2000

By the time when I worked on writing the D-E-C-D Suite in circa 2000, most of my equipment relating to play; write and record music has been replaced with digital stuff. In this particular composition, everything you hear came from those digital stuff; rhythm machine, digital sequencer and digital synthesizer, except for the guitars (I used both electric and acoustic ones). All parts were recorded on a digital hard drive recorder and mixed down to a mini disk (and a cassette tape for the backup purpose).

The tune was written under the common rule shared with other materials within the Suite and focus was placed on the contrast between machine-cold and human-warmth - in other words, digital and analog - with showing my interest for the minimal music. I have to admit that the length of this track is too long to present relatively simple and poor amount of actual contents as a composition.

The title was inspired from then my girlfriend... or, in general, through observing her as a woman from a close range.
