Description: Up here my eyes are green leaves, unseeing.

"The desire produced in most visitors to the library, is to discover what they do not already know – to find the lost gospels, or the cures of diseases, or the true story of one’s own death. All of it is contained on one of the library’s pages – all you have to do is look"

Loved working on this one with such an amazing producer <3

Produced, Mixed and Mastered by Eputty & @Faelow

///POEM///

"Pure bliss, not realising everything in your life is perfect but realising your problems characterise you. Get lost in your mind, let your consciousness leave you, enter space and beyond. When your eyes are closed is when the mind is revealed, you negate all outside stimuli and you can roam free in your ideal, yet not quite perfect universe"

-afterglow, Cosmo batley.

I started this track more than a year ago after reading a poem a late friend of mine had written. He had such a profound impact on the people around him and never failed to inspire me whenever we spent time together. The track is wildly different from other stuff I've done and I'm sure Cosmo would've appreciated the heck out of it.

I hope something in this piece of art resonates with you in some way as I am sharing a part of my soul with you all.

Please close your eyes and roam free in my ideal, yet not quite perfect universe.

From listening to "sleepless nights" in the rain, crying to the track "timid" at a bus stop while the sun set, watching the sun rise to "kalypso" I really cannot express the profound impact sorrow has had on me as an artist. I put alotta love and care into this one.

Sorrow 21.12.2012 (Eputty Remix)

I started working on this piece in 2018 during one of the lowest points in my life. I was isolated from friends, going through a breakup, using substances to escape my problems, and grappling with complex mental health issues.
The process of remixing and reworking this track became somewhat excessive. I had to deal with subpar stems that had been processed countless times, navigating different laptops and setups, and fixing things that seemed almost impossible to work with. At one point, I didn't even know which key I was in (shoutout to Nate for the help). Releasing this track feels profound to me, especially considering the difficulties I faced along the way. It was a challenge to recapture the same mindset I had when I initially started working on it.
 I can't quite explain why I held onto this piece for so long, but it represents the first time I could express myself in ways words couldn't capture. That alone made it a deeply powerful experience for me. I hope that listeners will find their own personal connections and meanings within this piece. 

Enjoy <3

Moss's Lilypad

"There came to me in this case a melody which the air had strained, and which had conversed with every leaf and needle of the wood, that portion of the sound which the elements had taken up and modulated and echoed from vale to vale. The echo is, to some extent, an original sound, and therein is the magic and charm of it. It is not merely a repetition of what was worth repeating in the bell, but partly the voice of the wood."

- Henry David Thoreau
