‘Sunset Thinking’ was written and recorded by myself and Jon in the summer of 2023. Genre-wise I'm calling it 'Post-Yacht' but then, I'm an idiot. 

Every element of it, as with all our stuff, is home-recorded, mixed, produced, mastered, sleeve-designed, “promoted” and released by our very own clammy little paws. We remain proudly DIY even if we don’t sound like Shellac. Which, much to my consternation, we do not.

What we didn't make was the beautiful accompanying video by our good friend lejuanix. Check it out, it’s perfect.

'Sunset Thinking’ is my attempt to depict the experience of someone who finds themselves in the role of carer, in a situation where they believed they were a partner, a friend, or family member. It’s a song about dealing with the frustration which arises from trying to help someone suffering with mental health issues. It’s about the strain of attempting to show someone the value in the small, beautiful moments in life. It’s about the tiny victories these wonderful people achieve when they can show you the light coming in through the cracks, if only for a moment.

I’ve been lucky enough to know people like this.  I hope I was able to capture some small part of their experience.


‘Sunset Thinking’ is a hymn to the people who help you when you can’t help yourself, those who stand by you when you can’t stand, the people who show patience and kindness and ask nothing in return.

Thank you.

For those on the other side of the coin, the side I know best: 

When you’re at your lowest and fear there is no-one there for you, there is. When you are down and believe you can’t get back up, you can. When you think there is no way to continue, there is a way.

There is always someone who cares. 

There’s another single coming in May. It’s a disco banger about a haunted music box. I’m not joking.

Keep It Weird

Sunset Thinking (Single Edit)

Eor Drahcyr is a rapper and producer (Chuck Da Child) from London who recently relocated to the West Midlands in England. A skilled lyricist touching on real life experiences usually with a humorous undertone. He has released 2 E.P's (when formerly known as Richard Roe) - Silent Witness: The Voice of No One in 2014 and Richard Roe Vs. The Strawman in 2021. He later released a mixtape titled Odds Off: 1/1,000,000 in 2022 and is due to release his debut LP at the end of February 2024 entitled 'Silent Witness Vs. The Strawman'. His storytelling paints vivid pictures, distinct voice and witty delivery, coupled with his ability to range from a plethora of topics make him hard to forget about.

Martyrs are Jon and Michael. Raised in Wales, now living in Kent. We make big music in small rooms. Proudly DIY, everything from writing and recording to releasing and promo is done in-house. Literally, in our houses. Our last album LUMINISM sold out of physical copies and garnered over 100,000 streams across online platforms. Which was nice.
Our latest single The View From A Memorial Bench is the first in a series of ten singles on which we'll stretch our music across a variety of genres. We're restless like that. Enjoy.
