the first single from my new EP "wake". personally my favorite song to create :)

rift

i wrote this song to reflect the passing of time and endings - fitting for the last song of the EP.

fleeting

"a flower blooming among metal skeletons". I don't do much live recording, but i decided to experiment with it by humming at the end of the song.

solace

i know that i previously have released this, but i remastered the track (after i learned how to master in the first place) and made some slight technical changes to the sounds (there's some twisted bass/sound design in there now!). this was also the first of my original electronic songs that I have ever performed live, so i felt that it would be fitting to include this song in the EP.

nox (remastered for wake)

Inspired by a plethora of my favorite sci-fi movies and video games, I wanted this song to be reminiscent of an ethereal, grandiose score. To add continuity to the EP, the last more electronic bass line is actually a synth shared throughout all songs of "Disillusion".

affectation

Sharing the melody of the first track of this EP, I wanted to create a darker spin on "Translation", in order to unify the tracks.

translation (reprise)

As the very first song that I have added my vocals to, I was admittedly a bit nervous to release this. Unlike the vast majority of my songs, I went for a bit of a peppier tone in order to show the contrast between the beginning and end of the EP.

Lyrics:

Somewhere under this quiet
Your ego begins to slow

If we just break this secret
Maybe we could just let go

Of all of these things that hold us back
Of all of these pretensions and afflictions

pretension

As a transition from the Wake EP and an introduction to the mood of this EP, I wanted to make this track lighthearted, yet reflective and ambient.

translation

disillusion

consternation

i'm back! here's a little something that i made a while ago - more is to come :)
