Really liking the vibe you’ve got here. Like a sort of low key tension going on.

My family is Sri Lankan. One of my favorite places in the world is Dambulla Temple in Sri Lanka. The temple is full of caves containing massive gold statues of the Buddha, with ancient skeletons of the original people who lived there before Buddhism's arrival to the country. I created a song that tried to capture the ethereal, frenetic energy lingering within a silent, echoing cave - the memories of the dances of ancient golden bones.

My biggest inspirations were both video games - Final Fantasy 6's World of Ruin theme for chords that reverberated through a haunting, empty space, and Sly Cooper on the Playstation 2 for the glockenspiel evoking a sense of motion in the night.

The album art is my modernized rendition of another nearby Sri Lankan landmark - the Lion Rock, Sigiriya, an ancient, crumbling palace atop a massive rock in the jungle that awakes millennia later and finds itself in a world that has left it behind.

first beat ever.

didn't really know where this was heading to, just got into the flow and let things happen.

lo-fi inspired, some Mac DeMarco and IGOR vibes on synth, Gorillaz, and of course, the biggest inspiration: TAETRO.
