➔ About the Track
Originally a flip on a random Rhodes sample I downloaded from YouTube, I haven't been able to locate the video ever since. Started August 2023.
The main rhodes in the drop is duplicated and pitched up an octave, with volume automation, giving it this guitar-like tonality. One of my favourite sound design technique since, which I've reused in tracks such as Sirens (never released but iykyk).
The vocal is made using Synthesizer V, with this being my first experience with lyrics, up until my remix of Bad Seed for YOKAI's album. I wanted a deep voice, similar to that of DRS which I was (and am still) addicted to. Unfortunately not quite what I envisioned but it worked.

➔ About the Album
Collection of Liquid Drum & Bass works from 2021~2024.
This album is a testament to almost 4 years of producing, while still not finding what I truly enjoy making. Perhaps, one could say I'm lost. But at the same time, I've been lost forever yet I've never felt like it was truly a problem. So Let's hope the next few years are equally filled with both ups and downs - I think this is what makes my life so interesting.
Liquid DnB has been a great genre to produce over the years, with inspiration by Makoto, LSB, Harry Shotta, and many more. While being a genre I sometimes consider as 'lazy' or 'uninspired', I still think it's one of the widest subgenres of drum & bass, considering the range of instruments---both synthetic and acoustic---which can be used.

The cover artwork and video visuals are a love letter to my magnificent country and region - the French Alps, and showcase something I really enjoy: taking deep breaths outside through driving, hiking or cycling. The photo was taken in 2023 during a bivouac and is the westside of Taillefer from the Plateau des Lacs, and various videos were taken from 2021 to today on various trips and hikes, by car, foot or bicycle.
