"Raikou is an Electric-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation II. The rain clouds it carries let it fire thunderbolts at will. They say that it descended with lightning. It races across the land while barking a cry that sounds like crashing thunder. Along with Entei and Suicune, it is one of the Legendary beasts resurrected by Ho-Oh after the burning of the Brass Tower. Of the three Legendary beasts, Raikou is said to represent the lightning strike which ignited the fire that consumed the Brass Tower."

i can finally check "write a song from start to finish" off of my list of tangible goals for 2022 :’) have been slowly falling in love with chillhop all over again. it's a genre of music that fills me up with love. and makes me feel totally at peace. i've always been inspired by gentle soundscapes such as those.. so i sat down with the intention of creating one. no pressure to create a full song. just experimenting. and this came out of it. sounds like the intro of an EP to me, but idk :’)

thank you for listening ⚡️🤍
