I'd rather go blind

Only the Shadow Remains

Everyday Pretender builds on a 5/4 jazz groove — a modern nod to Take Five — blending dreamy vocals, neo-soul warmth, and experimental R&B textures.

The vocal performance was created with Synthesizer V Mai², adding a soft, human-like tone that drifts between clarity and fragility.

The song tells of the quiet performances we give every day — the little acts of pretending that help us survive.

I wanted to capture that bittersweet balance between control and chaos, between what we show and what we truly feel.

An alternate mix with a brighter vocal tone (“Alt Mix”) is now available here:

Feel free to listen and compare both versions — each brings out a different mood.
