Fireflies at Dusk (Shelter In Place no. 4) for ambient synths and Animoog

Begun as an ambient drone software synthesizer improvisation, during mixing I added a solo lead part, which brought the music into focus. As I played the lead track, I envisioned the many evenings in later summer when I went out to watch the fireflies rise from the grass into the trees at the edges of fields. Often the evening was silent, except for insects and songbirds. The fireflies became ever brighter and more numerous as the sky darkened to indigo, and the first stars came out.
