An instrumental inspired by early to mid period Genesis. The use of multi- layered acoustic 12 string guitars, keyboard, keyboard bass sounds and dreamy e-bow gives this tune an instant nostalgic Prog Rock sound.

Story behind the song
Greek and Roman Mythology was a 'go to' place for inspiration on early Peter Gabriel / Steve Hackett period of Genesis recordings. Here I've taken the story of Narcissus and Echo as the starting point for this instrumental. As you'll know, Narcissus rejected Echo in favour of his own reflection in a pool. To further enhance the dreamy quality of the tune I've included the sound of lapping water.
