Wraith

Title:Wraith
Music: Stuart Herring and Nick Hulskamp
Year: 2003
Links: mp3 sample

This piece came about from a guitar riff Nick came up with, and the name, which he also provided.
The clean, ringing, apegio riff combined with the name gave me an image of a pale, waif of a girl, on a horse...riding out through the mist.
I had a pretty good idea of a chorus straight away...and in writing the verse, I discovered that the girl was recently dead, and was wandering aimlessly between this world and the next.
Musically, we have a pretty good start on this..although I need to do something about vocals, my voice just isn't quite capable of what this song needs.
The sample is of the chorus as it currently stands...
