about

'Cocoon' (Released Friday 08/05/2020) is the new single from 'Waiting Space' (which is an audio & visual project - and the alias of Waterford [Ireland] musician and creator, Chris Falconer). The new release is accompanied by a self-produced drone video, assembled from footage of an almost-empty Waterford City, Ireland, taken in April 2020, during COVID-19 - shot within 2 k.m. of Falconer's home.

About the Song:

Due to a heightened-risk arising from immunosuppressing medication which Waiting Space (Chris Falconer) takes for an autoimmune disease - like many others, he has been undertaking the practice of 'cocooning', during COVID-19. ‘Cocoon’ takes its name from this - and it is the first solely-instrumental release from Falconer, as Waiting Space - having decided to leave the song lyric-less, as it’s likely the most 'hopeful' sounding piece of music I’ve written - and thought it was timely to leave it as is.

The song began life as a demo entitled 'Piano Vs. Synth' - and this previous title sets the scene for how the track unfolds: starting with a gentle, close-mic-ed piano progression, before swelling into a hybrid of electronics and acoustics. The song rises towards a crescendo, eventually reaching a peak (musically attempting to reflect the breaking of a new dawn), before a returning-coda eases us into the new (normal) present.

A huge thanks to healthcare-workers, shopkeepers, media, cleaners, & other frontline workers who have given so much, during these unusual times.
