"The idea behind 'Hearing Is Seeing' was to take a complex Music Theory device, like serial tonal structures, and make it feel more approachable. 

Along with that, the song was inspired by the idea of synesthesia (the phenomena of seeing sounds), in a few different ways. It’s a nod to the feeling of gaining wisdom, insight, and understanding from being open and listening deeply – but also, to seeing things first and hearing them second. 

Taking a more literal approach to the latter in this case, the harmonic structures that form the base of the song were designed to look aesthetically pleasing on paper. For example, in the chorus, the tonal centers for the chords are spiraling notes circling inward, and then the “B" sections of the song make use of symmetrical modes. 

But, perhaps more importantly – both the top-line and the groove of the track are there to glue it all together – to remind us to not get too caught up in all of the technical stuff that's under the hood here, and to instead just feel it."

As heard on Spike Lee's 'She's Gotta Have It' season 2 (episode #8, 2019)

 
Lyrics:

Mom worked two jobs to make sure we had
She never took a day off, even though she can
Long days and nights, she never cried in our face
When you lead by example, you do it with grace

Help me find a healthy way out of here
Somewhere safe where I can save my mind

"If this world is mine, I design this world,"
said a young black boy and girl
Did we come from the sun, or beyond the skies?
What will become of the young black mind?

Father had problems, he lived on his own
Stepfather became father, choice of his own
He’d tell me stories about wars between Egypt and Rome
He said there’s loves in these projects, but the rest of the globe -
you must know, you must go as far as you can go

Help me get healthy and get out of here
Somewhere safe where I can save my mind

"If this world is mine, I design this world,"
said a young black boy and girl
Did we come from the sun, or beyond the skies?
What will become of the young black mind?

As far as you can go…

Help me get me healthy and get out of here
Somewhere safe where I can save my babies and my mind
Living in this system that wasn’t designed for you at all
From the moment you’re born, till the moment that you fall

She said "I can’t give you much, but I’ll do what I can
One day you’ll be a family man, you’ll understand"
Life moves so fast, the future becomes the past
The day becomes the memory that barely lasts

But I have to thank you
You gave me everything that I needed to survive,
to survive...
And I know you’re watching

---------------------------------------

Special remix collaboration from two of Bastard Jazz's brightest upcoming international artists, Kumail from Mumbai and BRISA from Fukuoka come together for a very special cross Asia remix. BRISA takes the original lo-fi longing vibe of Kumail's "Kkwy" and bumps up the tempo and brings in an element of future funk, with a bubbling bassline, arpeggiating synths and big drums blending into Kumail's ghostly vocals and special vibe. This release sets the stage for the worldwide vinyl release of Kumail's album "Yasmin", dropping in late April.
