Enter State is Avaline Ingels’ most experimental and intimate work—
a consciousness-splitting concept album told from the inside of a mind learning to reorganize itself.

Across twelve realities, each track is sung by a different “state” or internal narrator, each with their own tone, rhythm, and worldview. These personalities drift into Avaline’s body like temporary authors, writing their fragments of the album in their own styles—anxious, analytical, melancholic, dissociated, childlike, restless, methodical.

Through all the fractured voices, a second current runs beneath the surface:
Avaline’s true voice, appearing only in brief melodic interruptions marked by a detuned piano triad that bends the music for a heartbeat. She enters a line here, a chorus there—slowly gathering control of the album itself.

By the time the final track arrives, Avaline has become fully present.
Track 12 emerges as a singular, confident indie-rock anthem where the scattered identities no longer compete—
they collaborate.
She doesn’t silence them.
She integrates them.
She steps into her name for the first time.

Enter State is a quiet superhero origin.
A meditation on multiplicity.
A journey through internal landscapes where the music carries as much meaning as the lyrics that survive the noise.

WEIHNACHTEN, DU FEST DER LIEBE, FEST DER CLUBS UND DER BETRIEBE

DIE MEERE - gewidmet meinem Freund Achim Reichel

Away Message is about choosing quiet without shutting people out. Not lost. Not gone. Just taking the long way through the day. Focusing on yourself and taking a breather. 

[Verse 1]
Phone lights up on the kitchen table
Coffee hot, let it buzz
Sun comin’ in through the back door
Radio low, I’m good right now
ummm hmmm 

Been busy, still nowhere fast
Let the minutes linger
Nothing broken, nothing heavy
Just don’t feel like talkin’ right now

[Pre-Chorus]
If you’re lookin’ for me
I didn’t disappear
I just turned things down
So I could hear myself clear

[Chorus]
I left an away message
Didn’t mean it cold
Just takin’ a little quiet
Where the bars read low

If you hit me later
That’s alright with me
I’m not gone, I’m just gone still
Just livin’, let me be

I left an away message
Yeah, just for today
Not pushin’ anyone out
Just givin’ myself some space

[Verse 2]
Windows down, same back road
Same song, still works
World keeps movin’ on its own
I don’t gotta do the work

House feels right with not much on
Floorboards creak when I walk by
I’m not hidin’, I’m not off
I just don’t need to reply

[Pre-Chorus]
If you’re wonderin’ where I went
I’m right here, slowed it down
Some days don’t need a reason
I’m not lost, just not found

[Chorus]
I left an away message
Didn’t mean it cold
Just takin’ a little quiet
Where the bars read low

If you hit me later
That’s alright with me
I’m not gone, I’m just gone still
Just livin’, let me be

I left an away message
Yeah, just for today
Not pushin’ anyone out
Just givin’ myself some space

[Bridge]
No doors slammed
No hard lines
Just me listenin’
For what feels right to me

Everything don’t need words
Everything don’t need now
I’ll be back when it makes sense
I’m good right now

[Final Chorus]
I left an away message
Ain’t nothin’ cold
Just givin’ me time
Let the day unfold

If you come back around
I’ll be right here, same place
I’m not checkin’ out
I’m just movin’ at my pace

Yeah, I left an away message
Just for today
Me and the quiet
Do things our way

[Outro]
Away message
Yeah, it’s all okay
Away message
I’ll talk another day

VELVET MIDNIGHT

ETUDE AT THE END OF THE DAY

A FESTIVE SONG OF ALL-AROUND CHRISTMAS ACTIVITY

Hesitating
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[intro]

[instrumental

[verse]
I have spent my life waiting
I could never say yes
Every time hesitating
And settling for less

I was hoping for someone
Who would make it so clear
What I want and what I need
They never come near

[pause]

I would race and try to get you
But my mind will never let me
And I feel the old fear 

And I feel the old fear 

[instrumental

I can get, oh so close
We can breathe the same air
But I get an overdose
And I fall off my chair

You can hold my hand tight
But something always says no
And I'm saying "Good Night"
And I have to let you go

[pause]

I was hoping for someone
Who would make it so clear
What I want and what I need
They never come near

I would race and try to get you
But my mind won't let me
And I feel the old fear 

And I feel the old fear 

[instrumental

I was hoping for someone
Who would make it so clear
What I want and what I need
They never come near

[outro]
