Close Your Eyes

Another little dump near the end of the year :)

Happy anniversary to Rapture, 1 year old!

I guess i'll just put a little update here, I've been working on another album and I've got tons of super promising ideas! 
But honestly ive recently gotten into the "Real World" with work and whatnot and im starting to understand how terrible life really is lol
As much as I love music and I would love to do it full-time, I really can't see it happening at this point with work eating up so much of my time, like it truly pains me to never be able to just like sit down and write something because I always have that looming fear of work or something else. Recently tried getting into dating too so thats another thing added on top

kinda do miss just being a NEET out of college grinding music near daily lmaoooo

well either way, hope you're all doing well :))

the picture of the boat is real btw! saw it during a driving lesson and just had to get a snap of it haha

also sidenote but this is the first song ive ever done where i didnt use any autotune at all! kinda minor W i guess lol

13 writers putting pen to paper, 65 musicians composing pieces inspired by their writing, and 26 visual artists tying everything together with a cover illustration. From April 23rd to May 13th, 2023, these 104 creatives came together with one goal: to tell a story. The result amounted to thirteen beautiful tracks, rich with emotion, excitement, and wonder.

Stories take on infinitely many forms. A child's drawing. A home-cooked meal. A recount of the day given by someone returning home to their spouse. They do not have to be written, nor spoken with any amount of poetry or decorative language; they simply exist. Here's to the stories we tell. Whether written, drawn, or sang, whether a fantastic fable or a solemn look into the human experience, they all carry weight. We have no greater obligation than to simply tell them in whatever way we know how. 

All proceeds from Storybook: Chapter 2 will be donated to Active Minds, an organization supporting mental health awareness and education for young adults.

僕らいくら泣いたって
答えは向かい風
点と点

じゃあぼくら意味はないって言っても
ここには嘘ないさ

(Running along, counting the stones
Feeling the sun, blow off the dust
Finally see, reach out for me
You won't forget)

I'll remember the times
Running along, counting the stones
Escaping from here
Feeling the sun, blow off the dust
Make it all there
I finally see, reach out for me
Before I am gone
You won't forget, I will be here
Until the dawn

(Please, don't forget me)

It all comes back to you!

As we follow the signs
That’ll split us apart to our lives
We’ll remember this moment
Like it was last night
It’ll soon be fine

It’s okay to be
To leave this place and breathe
Finally free to move on
Don’t worry 'bout me
I’ll still be in reach

On the bright and early morning of August 12th, 2023, over 1,000 creatives began their 24-hour work session that resulted in 558 unique songs and 66 album covers. Musicians bounced out stems for each other and shared samples, visual artists scoured the Internet for fonts and graphics, and everyone excitedly buzzed about what would come of it all. The final result? 45 of the most outstanding, creative, and genuine tracks our corner of the digital world has to offer—with an equally beautiful album cover to match.

The real enrichment lies in the act of creation. A piece of art does not have to be forward-thinking or never-seen-before, nor does it have to be better than the last; it simply has to be. To create something without worry of what others might think, to have fun with your work, is one of the greatest things this world has to offer—digital or otherwise.

All proceeds from All Nighter Vol. 8 will be going to Out & Equal, an organization dedicated to workplace equality for LGBTQ+ individuals.
