"Things are as they are. Looking out into it the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations."

CharlestheFirst - The Summit

Week 27 of S O M I C O SINGLE SATURDAY comes from Californian teen, @charlesthe-first.

CharlestheFirst // Papers |SSS027|

“No Hiding” drifts through shadows with a soulful melancholy—layered chords ache with memory while dusty drums carry the weight of quiet hope. It’s a beat for rainy nights, late regrets, and the slow rise back into the light. Raw, reflective, and resilient—there’s no hiding from the truth, but maybe, just maybe, there’s healing in the rhythm.

CharlestheFirst - Let Us Forget

Being lost is profound.

To be lost is not to be in a state of helplessness or distress, but rather to embrace the notion that wilderness is all around us. That there is magic in the forest. That we inhabit a planet full of other worlds. That there is euphoria in rain. Enlightenment is to find yourself lost, to relish the glowing embers of a rosen sunset and to venture deep into an abyss in search of unearthly things. 

Transcendence comes from acceptance that the most solid foundations begin with the intangible.

That to see is to explore the ethereal realm that can’t be held by our hands. That to hear is fundamental, but to listen is revolutionary. Beauty lies not in the beholders eye, but in the minds of all of us, the lost beings hurtling through space dust, spinning wildly and loving madly, eternally…

CharlestheFirst - Vimoka

Sometime in the late spring of 2018, I had a chance between shows to stop over and hang out with Charles in Tahoe. He scooped me from my flight in reno, and we hit the road. One of the places we stopped on the way was Mt Rose. 
This track reminds me of how nice it was to get to relax and hang out for a few days outside of our typical shows and tour life. It's one of those jams from a night where everything feels all good, where you just fire up the studio and make music straight up for the enjoyment of it.

To friendship, mountains, laughs, creativity, stories, games, huge lakes and music.

Mt Rose (Goopsteppa & Charlesthefirst)
