recently i've been struggling to make music, ESPECIALLY for myself. even though i still enjoy making music and want to make music all the time, it feels more and more difficult to sit down and work on music.

i’ve been wanted to make a proper ep/album for a few years now, but progress has been slow. however, this ep was made in just a day (ish*)—just a big explosion of emotion and ideas—and was meant to be wacky, but still genuine and emotional. i just wanted to tell my brain:

“HEY!!!!! you still got this!!!!!!!!!!!! stop putting yourself down!!!!!!!!!!! if you can do THIS, you can do ANYTHING!!!!!!!!”

the artwork and is inspired by an accidentally profound thing a friend said:

we were at the park drawing together, and i said "dang, why are trees so hard to draw.” i was trying to draw one of the trees at the park as accurately as i could.

but a friend quickly replied: "what do you mean? trees are easy to draw, see!" and drew a super simple tree.

i think about that a lot.

EMBRACE IMPERFECTIONS! IGNORE EXPECTATIONS! JUST HAVE FUN!!!

*okay!!! the fourth track was written last november, but i worked on it more to make it fit the aesthetic of the ep.

this should be easy!!!

letting something go (go) ((go) (((go)))

Hey there! I haven't been too active lately, as motivation to write new music doesn't always come easily. I came up with this track quite accidentally - I was originally going to make a calmer, Paper Mario-esque tune, but I got carried away and expanded the track to a wider concept (an aircraft which takes off to explore the vastness of sky). I had a lot of fun using N64 and SNES sounds in this one.

Also, just hit 300 followers on Soundcloud! Thank you!
