unwinding prophecy (stafford)

this is another very odd duck, featuring several samples from the "prophet" series of sequential circuits synths (hence the title) - the other half of the title is an homage to roger powell, a reference to a lyric from his song "emergency splashdown" in which he sings "life chain unwinding..." - so "unwinding prophecy". another unique and impossible to replicate fairlight "instrument" and sequence - like nothing else on earth.

it may be worth mentioning that this is the first piece where I delved heavily into the later fairlight “III” samples (which can be recognised by the use of mixed case and more than eight characters, as opposed to the earlier samples that all have names that are all upper case with a maximum of eight characters) but you will find that they appear more and more regularly, although I do tend to prefer the original library of sounds.
