I made this South African dream house track imagining the first blood lilies coming out of the soil, weeks after a wildfire. In the fynbos biome, underground bulbs and seedlings need fire to grow, and burst out of the ground afterwards. So the track is about that sense of hope of new beauty after a difficult event. The piano line takes influence from South African Marabi music,  I’ve incorporated cut-up and rearranged samples of local church choirs, and the synths were definitely inspired by 90s Eurodance.

I make electronic music inspired by nature around Cape Town. In to hauntology and the eerie, also 90s house and pretty melodies.
