expected nothing less than perfection.  wasn't disappointed

“I’ve been a long time fan of On Planets. I’ve loved hearing the evolution of Sean’s music over the years. Both of our styles have evolved into something that’s super compatible with each other! So Long is a beautifully written piece of music. I’m honored to have been able to put my spin on the original.” - Tails 

“This track is super exciting for me because it's the first ever official remix of an On Planets tune. Tails totally nailed the vibe and I can't get enough of it. It makes the song feel extra-complete to see the track through his eyes, and to hear how he rephrased and expounded on the core feeling and message of the original tune.”  On Planets

✧ Lyrics
From a tangle of intention,
Decision and dead branches,
I did my best, but couldn’t pull out any answers
Was living in the lurch behind this fear of going backwards
To close another chapter
 
So standing on the pier
At the shore of all I’ve done,
Nothing left except to wait
And hope the tide would come up
Isn’t it a shame how much I've left upon the dock?
In the name of moving on,
I cut the ropes and cast off
 
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon 
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
 
In a haze of aimless rest,
With the crutch of coming last,
Caved and craned my neck
As a year went floating past
Crawled out to the edge,
It was time to leave the raft;
Forever on a crest
On a wave that couldn’t crash
 
Had a hard time coming back,
Forgot the taste of salt
Was grasping at a chance
When I got dashed upon the rocks
I’d been casting seams across the bricks in my façade;
Cracked up, smiling at the tideline,
Washed up back where I belong
 
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
 
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
 
I know, I know
There’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Don’t lose sight of where you started from

On Planets - So Long (Tails Remix)

"Dark Places marks the beginning of a new perspective on how I view the world alongside music. Feelings of nostalgia have overcome many of us, including me in the past two years and I wanted to explore that realm through this song. After hearing the initial vocal demo, I immediately knew that I wanted to draw inspiration from brooding, moody and dark influences and Kwesi's haunting voice and lyrics offer a glimpse of hope that I molded the instrumental production around." - Manila Killa

"We have choices to make every day and sometimes, the mind can go to dark and strange places that are often unhealthy and destructive," said Kwesi.  "At one point or another, we find ourselves scared and confused about the past and what it means for the future.  This song is about finding our way out of that darkness and working to be better for ourselves and those around us every day." -  Kwesi

Feels incredible to be releasing my Debut Album, it's been such a long process and such a long challenge it kind of felt like this day would never come, but it did.

Conceptually the album is about romanticizing a naive world view. That naiveness and ignorance is something to be cherished. There's something really beautiful about the perfect worldview you have as a kid, that the world is harmless, beautiful and good. The more you learn and experience though the more you realise everything isn't perfect. So the less you know the more beautiful it is, it's the things we haven't done, the places we don't know, that have this unquestionable beauty to it. it's this world i'm trying to mirror with my album, the one that stays in your imagination.

Musically i knew i wanted to do a sonic representation of the concept, blending worldly sounds with small bedroom type samples and soundscapes. I really loved the idea of those two polarizing things being the two main factors that would lay the ground for the album.

LYRICS
V1:	
Running on the streets like a misfit, I miss it, so do you
Lately I’ve been good at reminiscing, wishing you were my view
My god it’s so good to see you, it’s been so long 
	
All the days we would talk at the cross walk, 4 blocks was the way home 
Looking out the window at it all like - in a big world all alone
My god it’s so good to see you, it’s been so long 

Pre:	
But we were younger then
And now I can’t pretend
Like I don’t miss the way that it felt with you
Yeah we were younger then 
And I can’t pretend 
That I don’t miss how it all (just) felt brand new 
 
Chorus:	
I feel younger with you 
Younger, younger
I feel younger with you
Younger, younger
It felt brand new
Younger, younger
I feel younger with you (x2)

V2: 	
I don’t know how we got so far from all the ways that it once was 
But I love when you say that it feels good to come back here, because it does 
Looking at you through that rear view, it’s been so long
	
And I know and I know that time went by yeah we got older
But to be here and look into those eyes head on my shoulder
I feel alive again, just like I always said, alive with you, ooh

Pre:		
But we were younger then
And now I can’t pretend
Like I don’t miss the way that it felt with you
Yeah we were younger then 
And I can’t pretend 
That I don’t miss how it all felt brand new 
 
Chorus:	
I feel younger with you 
Younger, younger
I feel younger with you
Younger, younger

Lyrics: 
Losing time
Thinking about you and nothing more.
I hang around,
There's nothing else I'm looking for.

I'd give you more then you could take...
Promises you know I'd make...
Can my heart do more than ache?
Alone is asleep; in love is awake.

All those wishes
That I made on stars for you,
They all fall down,
Fade away and it's so far from true.

I'd give you more then you could take...
Promises you know I'd make...
Can my heart do more than ache?
Alone is asleep; in love is awake.
I’d give you more then you could take...
Promises you know I'd make...
Can my heart do more than ache?
Alone is asleep; in love is awake.
Alone is asleep
In love is awake
Alone is asleep
In love is awake

Surveying the wonders of cultures from across the globe, Chris Gavino, best known as Manila Killa is a well-traveled producer inspired by his cross-continental upbringing. A now decorated producer with an expansive repertoire of accolades, Manila Killa cut his musical teeth as a high schooler in The Philippines by combining self-taught Ableton lessons with a penchant for electronic music. Guided by emotion-driven soundscapes and the connective nature of melodic dance music, Manila Killa excels at synthesizing the foundations of human passion. In 2014, he formed the successful house duo Hotel Garuda and co-founded his own independent record label Moving Castle which has since housed acts like Slow Magic, AObeats, Khamsin, and many more. Since his departure from Hotel Garuda in 2018, Manila Killa refined his solo craft with his 2019 debut EP 1993 which garnered praise from media heavyweights like Billboard, Forbes, and Ones To Watch adding to a laundry list of critical acclaim joining tastemakers like Complex, Paper, and NYLON. With official remixes for Chvrches, The Knocks, Tegan and Sara, and performances at festivals like Firefly, Ultra Miami, Electric Zoo, 88rising's Head in the Clouds, and more, Manila Killa is defined in equal parts as a producer, performer, and in-demand collaborator. Dedicated to the consciousness of contemporary dance music, Manila Killa released his debut album "dusk" the summer of 2022.
