When I started this piece, I wanted to compose something that felt significantly
different than any of the preceding Flights of Fancy jams. After the first session, I
needed to name the file something, even if I changed it later. I listened to the first
few seconds again and really liked the warmth of the guitar synth tones I had
chosen, so “Warm” it was. As it developed, I focused on giving the piece life and
dynamics but keeping it warm and somewhat ill-defined with less structure than its
predecessors. At around 3:30 into the piece, I turn up the heat by musically
simulating the building of a cozy campfire. Close your eyes and listen as the flames
swirl and the logs crackle...until the flames slowly die at the end of the jam. Ahhh...
