Download Panopticon EP here: http://alekdarson.bandcamp.com/
Here's a first Dual Playthrough from Panopticon! It's great how the music turns out different when energies coexist in the moment. I had a major pleasure of doing this video with Hadrien Pierson, the original drummer for this song on the studio recording.
The song came to be from a creative response assignment for a literature class I took at Berklee. Dr Douglas Kohn had us read a great book by Alexie Sherman, called Flight, and create under impressions. My assignment was the song you're listening now.
Enjoy this alternate take of "Flight Impressions"

about
During my last 10 years of professional music experience I went through many emotional states. Being in numerous different projects and acts gave me insight into a large scope of personal mindsets, ranging from experiencing the lowest of disapproval and despise, to the highest bliss of love and acceptance. This EP’s musical realm depicts all those emotions about the world and what they came down to. I look at it as a Panopticon, a perfect all seeing prison, where a single guard is the omni-observant. The big question stands: are we the guard, or the prisoner? I hope this music gets you a bit closer to my innermost world.
