Wind is probably the darkest song on the album, in my opinion. It's to do with sexuality and self-discovery, but it's also about a time when I was raped, and other dangerous encounters I've had in a similar nature.
Being queer is already such a difficult landscape to be in, and the community being so unwelcoming and having such damaging standards makes it very difficult to feel wanted or worthy of any kind of affection or love.

Maybe it's just me but I really hate being queer and being in that community. I've never felt welcome and I've always felt like an outsider no matter how hard I've tried with dating or just finding a friend group. I guess it has to be something I'm doing wrong personally but I don't know, it just sucks.

Of course the most queer people get is meaningless hookups which is where an app like Grindr thrives. I've had plenty of incredibly questionable encounters from the app, and of course a few that I'll never properly forget.

It's difficult because it wasn't violent or intensely forceful, it was a case of me saying no and someone doing it anyway.

There is no kind of silver lining in the lyrics, a lot of them are just to do with anxiety around these meetings or small anecdotes.

[LYRICS]
(Little Faith)
Figure it out, I just can't decide
just figure it out, before I fake myself out
I said figure it out, oh
oh, oh, oh

'cuz I didn't think it'd be this loud, winding down the back of your house
and there's all this black water
you're telling me to go
there's so much black water

one, two, one two three four

'cuz I didn't think it'd be so loud, winding down the back of your house when
there's all this black water

Sprinting through a pitch black park
covered in mud and ejaculate
didn't think I'd get this far

'cuz I didn't think it'd be this loud, winding down the back of your house
and there's all this black water
you're telling me to go
there's so much black water

Maybe I should go
lay down in the snow
if I'd just said "no"
but I didn't, 'cuz I didn't think it'd be so loud, winding down the back of your house
I'm not here to play the part
so much black water

There's all this black water

In nature, a whale fall is an event where the death of a large animal such as a whale causes the surrounding ecosystem to flourish, it's a whole phenomenon it's super interesting.
The idea of a whale fall inspired the idea of letting something go to allow yourself to move on and flourish, so that's what the main theme of the song is.

The song is also inspired by "House Of Leaves" by Mark Z Danielewski. It's my favourite book of all time and truly changed my outlook on life and art in general. One part that absolutely stuck with me was near the end of the book, so spoilers ahead haha.

The main character finds out that all of his suffering ended up helping people around him. He finds out that a band was inspired by his project, and finds the will to go on living, and how things eventually turn out ok.
Anyway, in some kind of meta-way I guess this song partially IS that song from the book, and the theme of suffering not being worthless also ties in with the idea of a whale fall. I just found it so emotional seeing what this character went through, and for them to finally find some kind of peace with it and knowing that things are ok just resonates with me and a lot of things I've struggled with in my life.
Seriously, the way this book analyses itself, scrutinises itself while building itself in a believable way, incorporating all these strange elements and theories woven into this cohesive story with another story in the background? it's mind-bending, emotional, terrifying, and deeply enrgossing. And the fact it came out in 2000? just insane, so ahead of its time.

The lyric "maybe i'm the limb" comes from a song by Typhoon, called "We're In It", where a lyric asks "I feel cut off from all I have been, but am I the stump or am I the limb?"
(I also sampled this song in Portal way back when)

More related to the song though, I've always wanted to make a sort of shoegaze-noise-esque song, and I think I got it in a way that makes sense

The scream at the end was also me which I'm super happy with, my brother has an original recording of it and honestly it scared me a little!

[LYRICS]
Divinity, defined by an echo
Acoustic light, drawn around my salt-baked heart

You dropped the ball, feeling the claw marks weigh on your chest
maybe meet someone?
And so many things are my fault, maybe I'm the limb?

Diving down, I feel it all
Chain myself, so spiritual
Diving down, I feel it all
Chain myself, so spiritual
Spiritual

How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?
How do I let go?

I live at the end of a five and a half minute hallway
my house has far too many walls
and the sky's been the same old blue for far too many years now

And I'm trying to break through
trying to find the line, just so I can cross it
I'm standing in the doorway with a rifle in my hand

It's funny, talking to the girls.
I see myself in each one of them, you know?
they all wanna make a living, they all have the american dream,
and what's wrong with that, you know?

Whale Fall

different flavors, same feeling.

lyrics:

Let's go off the grid
I need to breathe, I need some oxygen (Ihh)
I need to keep me clean
So pleas, help me before my voices help me talk again
And if you want to try again
We, we can go to a place, where we all used to be friends
Maybe we're not like we used to (I can't control)
You're still acting up and you don't wanna make amends

You feel like acid and you're burning on my skin (yeah)
I am at your door, please let me in. I feel so lonely as you're passing through like wind. To make me feel again, I'd do anything

They always say don't get hurt, you'll get used to it, you'll get over it, you keep falling back (sorry I'm not used to it)

You feel like acid and you're burning on my skin
I am at your door, please let me in. I feel so lonely as you're passing through like wind. To make me feel again, I'd do anything

Why is killing yourself the only way
To guarantee you peace of mind?
I can't understand
All hope and bliss I've made
And all of my faith...
It's gone. Just gone

On the morning of August 16, 2025, 1,327 unique musicians and 73 unique visual artists began the countdown on an all-day endeavor to create. This time was different, however; aside from being the 10th installment of All Nighter, there would be no 11th installment the following year. Creatives of all kinds seized the opportunity and put their all into the next 24 hours in front of their computers. The results of their hard work? 47 outstanding tracks that bridge genres and represent some of the most wonderful creations that this corner of the Internet has to offer.

FORM celebrated its seventh birthday just a month prior to All Nighter, Vol. 10. What began as a small group of friends collaborating on a piece of artwork has evolved into a 10,000-member community, 574 released songs, and over $100,000 raised for charity. By celebrating seven years and the 10th edition of our flagship event, we celebrate *you*— your unwavering support, your brilliantly executed ideas, your donations, your ability to create, and your limitless kindness to the likeminded creatives around you. A community is determined not by its popularity, power, or leadership, but by the character of its members. Time and time again, the FORM community proves itself to be a welcoming and joyful community where individuals push each other to be better and take pride in what they create. That is all thanks to you. You have made FORM the place it is today, tomorrow, and every day thereafter.

All proceeds from All Nighter, Vol. 10 will be going to World Central Kitchen, a charity dedicated to providing fresh meals in response to crises and disasters throughout the world.

lyrics

you can tear my life apart
i will just collect the limbs

stitching souls and hearts
gathered to create some sin

you can channel your whole energy
into another fault
shaking up the room
they just won't really give a fuck

loosen up your tongue
and give it up before you fall
ending up to be
a diamond in the rough

and you'll never get to talk about it
and i'll never get to talk about it
keep pressing on the issue
i'm immune to breaking up
yet, i'm crawling back

there's a ritual where we stand
and nobody gets to see

you could bury me alive
and then forget to dig

you can harness what you want
i am simply yours to keep

is it only me?
we were everlasting

sometimes you would leave me be
to search the open seas

i was never chained nor bound
yet you pulled me all around

there's something about your touch
that just makes me wonder so much

i swear you've noticed

i will run to you
whenever time is due
and i'll keep searching and searching through

maybe i'll show myself
and then you'll learn the truth
maybe someday i'll find out too

and you'll never get to talk about it
and i'll never get to talk about it
keep pressing on the issue
i'm immune to breaking up
yet, i'm crawling back

it only hurts cause i loved you
it only hurts cause i loved you
it only hurts cause i loved you
it only hurts cause i was dead by design

Townsend marker

green light

im more of a listener than a producer

no i didn't loop that one song like 50 times why would you ask me such a thing
