a track from my new album coming out in january

Little Window

The 51st release of katharsis is the album Afterlife by Danish artist Johan Carøe. The album takes shape through a collection of synth vignettes and spectral landscapes, where fragmented strings and ephemeral pads merge into weightless, hyper-lush forms. Created in a period of both new life and impending loss, Afterlife lingers in the space between presence and absence—a fragile transmission of shifting states, quiet relief, and fleeting sonic imprints. It stands as an isolated relic of a time that no longer exists—a collection of echoes, projecting the paradoxical nature of life and death.

Created in solitude on headphones and a MIDI keyboard in a transitional period in life, the album embodies a raw and intimate catharsis—the word in its truest sense. Without the usual studio space, these pieces emerged through line-in synths, VST textures, and fragments of old recordings—saxophone, cello, violin—stitched together like distant memories resurfacing. The absence of microphones and monitors lends the music an eerily virtual quality—a small life in a small box, a stretched-out portrait of a passing moment. It is introspective yet expansive, a meditation on the transient nature of memory, sound, and being.

Midsummer Glow 한여름의 빛

The light of midsummer—
when it settles upon a quiet heart,
forgotten emotions
begin to softly awaken.

Your gaze,
the ripple of light that day,
the hours that flowed in silence—
all remain within this glow.

This is not the end.
It is the beginning
of summer’s song, once more.

The waves of feeling
gently brush the soul,
and a sudden urge to drift away
calls forth the memory of you.

Between light and shadow,
a tender afterglow
revives the summer
that once
lived in my heart.
---------------------------------

한여름의 빛
그 빛이 고요한 마음에 내려앉을 때
잊고 지낸 감정들이
은은히 깨어난다.

그대의 눈빛,
그날의 빛의 파동,
말없이 흐르던 시간들—
모두 이 빛 속에 머문다.

이것은 끝이 아닌,
다시 시작되는
여름의 노래.

감정의 파도는
잔잔히 마음을 스치고,
어디론가 떠나고 싶은 충동은
문득, 그대를 떠올리게 한다.

빛과 그림자 사이
따뜻한 여운은
기억 속 여름을
다시—
불러온다.

Midsummer Glow 한여름의 빛

I began this piece around 3 years ago, when I had hit rock bottom mentally and emotionally.  I had only created the intro portion and had forgotten about it, only to resurrect and finish it this year. This is part of a series of deeper, more moody, but uplifting pieces that I plan to release as an EP.  I hope you enjoy the journey, and stay tuned for more!

And as always...
~Thank you for listening~
