Congruence Asserts Its Presence (1:08)

7-string

"Congruence Asserts Its Presence" got its name because it actually follows "Sahara" on the master tape, exactly as you hear it on CD, but how that happened was a freak thing. "Congruence" was all recorded on one track, but it was too long and I ended up wiping most of it so that I could record "Sahara". It turns out I must have wiped exactly 7:29. The last sound on "Sahara" was NOT on the same track as "Congruence" (I think it was on 2 and "Congruence" was on 4), and as I usually do to cut down on hiss, I'd stopped recording on the other tracks when I'd finished them. So anything underneath would have shown through. And I certainly hadn't timed either what I'd wiped off the tape or the new recording. Yet somehow I faded out the very last note of "Sahara" so that it coincided exactly with the sudden beginning of "Congruence"! Couldn't have planned it if I tried. So the segueway seems normal enough, but isn't- it was a very extreme sort of coincidence. Perfect for this album!
