about

I wanted to revisit “Mirage”, a track off my Hideaways III EP. This track is a special one and I thought it deserved something of a spotlight, so I returned to it and the result was two new mixes and a remastered version of the original.

A tribute to the late James Calvin Wilsey, the original “Mirage” is a surf-tinged instrumental ballad. Wilsey is perhaps best known for his work with Chris Isaak, though that’s far from all he did. A lover of Wilsey’s approach and tone, I wanted to make something of a tribute for a long time. I finally got the chance in 2020. Myself and a talented guitar player named Randy Clark teamed up for this track and Randy did a wonderful job paying homage to Wilsey’s tone and style.

The lead off track here is “Mirage ‘21”, a new rendition of the original track. A number of changes and tweaks have been made to the synths and drums involved, with the addition of a subtle nylon guitar. The second track is of course a remastered version of the original, as I wanted to adjust some small things and present the song slightly differently, while still in its original state. The third track is the “El Dorado Mix”, a smoky and atmospheric rendition, spurred on by Wilsey’s solo album of the same name.
