I'm still nowhere near.
However, I have a riff based on the central guy's body shape. His floor hand, other hand and knees, roughly make the shape of how a dominant 7th triad falls on a guitar. His feet stick out. So i have a riff based on dominant 7th with a little sticky out bit.
I'll have a mystical section and maybe some mystical sounding melodies. Also the contortion/twisty idea. I'm gonna twist the scales I'm using as the piece goes on.
Hope I can get it done in time
