Worked this one out at the start of the week, really happy with how the blend turned out. On my most recent listen of this album, this track really hit me in a different way. Perfect way to close the album imo. So dope how Rae and Ghost are bouncing off each other, reminds me of the 3rd verse from ‘Fast Life’ by Nas and Kool G Rap. I think as an outro the OG defo works being at such a slow BPM (like 70 something), but for this remix being a standalone thing I knew I'd want to speed it up and go for a different vibe. Defo happy with how it worked out, the flow fits the bounce of the drums really nice and the acapella blends well with the key of the sample, especially on the outro when Ghost and Rae are shouting everyone out, love how they both sound together there, vibe is on point imo. Very different to the OG but still got an emotional feel to it I think.

Let me know any thoughts on this one, defo keen to hear what you think of my take on this one. Peace!!

Heaven or Hell

Soft Like Sunday is a sultry neo-soul and jazz fusion slow jam that invites listeners into a world of softness, presence, and intentional love. With warm Rhodes textures, laid-back jazz guitar, and soulful harmonies, this track creates a gentle sanctuary where emotional safety and self-care meet.

Written for those practicing mindful love—both for self and others—it’s a love letter to the kind of relationship that honors peace over pressure, tenderness over urgency. This isn’t just a vibe—it’s a lifestyle.

Perfect for quiet mornings, slow dancing in the kitchen, or unwinding after a long week, Soft Like Sunday is a sonic exhale. It speaks to the grown, the grounded, and those who understand that grace is the new luxury.

Late Night Confession
Lyrics By: Thomas W. Peterson AKA RedHeart 
©COPYRIGHT 11–30-2025 All Rights Reserved © 


[Intro: Warm electric piano and soft brushed drums]

[Verse 1]
Your breath draws slow across the sheets
Streetlight paints your shoulder gold
I trace the curve your fingers keep
From all the stories left untold

[Verse 2]
Coffee rings on yesterday’s mail
Your sock lost near the bedroom door
I folded it without a word
Like I’ve done a hundred times before

[Pre-Chorus]
And the clock keeps turning pages
While my voice stays locked away

[Chorus]
HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY HOW MY HEART STILL FINDS YOUR NAME?
IN THE QUIET, IN THE DARK, IT WHISPERS JUST THE SAME!
Not with grand words or promises spun in the air—
But in how I leave your side of the bed just right there

[Inst: Electric piano solo with gentle cymbal swells]

[Verse 3]
You stirred just now, half in a dream
Mumbled something soft and low
I didn’t answer—but I held
The silence like a vow I know

[Pre-Chorus]
All the things I never speak
Live inside the way I wait

[Chorus]
HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY HOW MY HEART STILL FINDS YOUR NAME?
IN THE QUIET, IN THE DARK, IT WHISPERS JUST THE SAME!
Not with grand words or promises spun in the air—
But in how I leave your side of the bed just right there

[Bridge: Strings enter softly beneath piano]
Maybe love’s not in the saying
But the staying through the gray
The laundry folded, lights turned low
The choice to face another day… together

[Chorus]
SO HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY HOW MY HEART STILL FINDS YOUR NAME?
EVEN WHEN MY MOUTH WON’T SPEAK, IT CALLS YOU JUST THE SAME!
Not with grand words—but hands that know your favorite mug
And mornings where I watch you wake, and say nothing… but love

[Outro: Piano fades with light reverb, drums dissolve]
(whispered)
...love

Zatoon Presents: Rob Manga Mix

Back with another Wu Banger! This one has been in the works since 2015, and since then it's been at least 5 different versions with completely different sounds. This final take is centered on a massive drum break and the original "Daytona" sample, and includes a few homages to artists who've sampled "Nautilus" over the years. #mercuryraps
