EP.1

Skin

so, don't close your eyes
we can talk til dawn while you stare through the wall
raised you to raise questions
you don't listen anymore, too wrapped up in your thoughts
so cancel out, do you try? 
since you left the nest you've done nothing but forget
tell me what i'm supposed to do
you just drift along, your shadow gone

say something, in the house
i feel something running out
no boundary, come between

sweet and on the side, i know the blood
i'm masking love, hesitate
the wheels were never on the bus
well that's us
i never needed more, there's a heaven in that thought
some kind of forever more, there's a heaven in that thought

you say something, in the house
i feel something running out.


Cameo

I Never Will

lyrics:
Years ago, you found her dead
Can't you see her, can't you feel her pain
As she goes to heaven, the life you never knew
Can't you see her,
The last regret  she ever had 
Was not the same in your head

Hold the door
You know we're sleeping
Dreaming of places i wish to be
Can't you see me, can't you see her face
It haunts me up till night
Can't you feel her, can;t you talk to her
It becomes your greatest fears

Can't you see her (pale blue eyed stare)

I wrote this in 20 minutes ago and just wanted to put it out - it's not mixed or mastered or anything but I just thought "why the fuck not"?? I've been very choked up for a long time about putting stuff Out There, often really reluctant to until it's flawless but I've recently realised that that day may never come and that I can't live my whole life keeping secrets until perfection arrives because what a waste of time that would be.

The cover art is a painting that I saw at MCR Art Gallery a year or so ago and couldn't get out of my head (description below) and a few months ago I found a postcard of it framed in a charity shop, with some hidden relationship memorabilia in the back from someone else's relationship and now I love it even more.

"Sappho was a Greek lyric poet born circa 600 BC. She wrote about love, yearning and reflection, often dedicating her poems to the female pupils who studied with her on the island of Lesbos. According to legend, she threw herself herself into the sea from the cliff of Leucadia on account of her unrequited love for Phaon, a young man from Mitylene. [...] The expanse of sky is storm grey, broken only by a sliver of light on the horizon."

Sappho (Demo)

a moody bassy boi this one. feels like a quite well rounded song this, trying to not over complicate songs atm and try make each part sound great. Still finding mastering a weird process and not sure if mastering your own stuff is good practice, its hard to stay objective for sure. 
Enjoy. Be kind to each other <3

Snailed it

Bit different to anything I've made so far this one. I absolutely love the song Dark Jewel by Gallops and i think this song is partly influenced by that tune. 

Still using basic ableton bits and bobs. 

Enjoy, be kind to each other <3

"Something Broke Inside" narrates waking from a nightmare, coughing blood laced with shards of broken glass – the psychological aftermath of contaminated intimate relationships, angst, and isolation. Surging with complex visceral textures, and an unparalleled fusion of hurdy-gurdy, Ukrainian Bagpipes, and avant-garde electronica, simultaneously potently dark and despairing, Something Broke Inside travels on a stark rhythmic beat enhancing Eugene's piercing vocals, infusing the tune with feelings of oil-and-water, while layers of sound assemble uneasiness.
lyrics
Awoken in fear
By my silent scream.
I dreamt of spitting shards with blood.
Did something break inside?
What was that?

Something inside,
Made of glass,
Something fragile,
The body didn’t hurt.
But inside all torn
And screaming: “What was that?”

Have you ever heaved up blood,
Shattered like glass,
Shouted silently?
What was that?
