Hi everyone, i'm finally happy to be able to release this track, i've been working on it for about 5 or 6 months now, and i've hit several walls during that period of making it, until eventually I had much more clear ideas on what I wanted to make of it, and it turned into this final product.
This is my longest song so far, and I'm pretty satisfied about the fact, considering i usually just make things that are like 2-3 minutes long, so being able to make something that's 5 minutes long is quite an achievement for it, usually in the past i'd be very hesitant about making something like this, especially because I struggle a lot with making sure everything in the song is coherent, but this time i was able to have a lot more courage and just work on it despite the fear i may not be able to string everything together, and it worked pretty okay!! This is far from the extent to which I would like to take this, but it is a massive stepping stone for me, being able to make something that makes you feel like you're going through a 5 minute journey, and that it's something to reflect on.
The way I ended up structuring it was having the middle part kind of have a lot of switchups, while the part towards the end and the beginning was more structured and typical artcore that you could hear from me, and so I just ended up having fun with it instead of worrying too much, if transitions weren't going to be much of an issue anyway, since a lot of people said they surprisingly liked the transitions, which means i succeeded in my goal in stringing the whole song together in a way.
The outro has got to be my favourite part of it all, since it holds a lot of thematic meaning in a sense, and the quote itself has become something that i'm really attached to and that I resonate with. "The world is too noisy, don't listen, don't look, don't care just move on"
and those of you who do speak japanese can maybe create an interpretation of the song from that quote alone, but more or less it was about personalizing the song more and giving it more of that journey feel by adding a human voice for a more touching ending, and I think it works really well.
I decided to go for Λlstroemeria as a title since a lot of my artcore so far has been based around flowers, and so I thought relating this title to my other tracks would be a pretty cool thing to do, and again add to the whole astolsko artcore lore:tm:, kind of like how fery would have artcore titles that are similar in some way.
And finally I want to dedicate this bit to talking about my friend, who passed away sometime while this song was still in the making, I had showed it to him when the song was still only around 1 minute and 20 seconds long, and all he said is that it reminded him of pixiv artists that drew similar art, it doesn't stand out but he still liked it, the song is obviously very different now, so i hope that I was able to address that issue, it's the least I can try to do, even though he's not here to listen to it anymore, may you rest in peace.
This was a lot of work so I hope you guys can enjoy this track, I had a lot of fun making it, so I hope listening to it is an equal amount of fun!
I have other things in the future that I am pretty excited to show off, so hopefully I will be able to get it done!!
enjoy!!!!!

Hey everyone, it's me again with a new track, after having released my first very big project which was alstroemeria, I decided I just wanted to have fun with my next song and not overthink it much, and just do something I haven't done before, so I decided to go for this sort of 3/4 electronica kind of vibe with east asian instruments that I had gotten recently, overall the making of this song went extremely smoothly so I may not have as  much to say about it.
Starting by the intro the key and the intro chords are directly referencing one of my older tracks, "スピリット ガーデン", the intro is almost exactly the same with some changes, just because the songs means a lot to me and it was created in a similar fashion of just trying to have fun.
The rest of the song is mostly just mix and matching instruments, I decided to have the chorus part be more drawn out this time around, because I thought the chorus sounded good enough that it wouldn't be an issue if I repeated it while changing the instruments. 
And I chose the title just because I haven't released anything witch related in a while (I won't feel at rest until i release witch content somehow)
Hope everyone enjoys this song!!! I've been working on some collabs that should come out sometime this summer! byebye

Your Mental State

Made, a wrong turn lost my way
Lost myself, where, I don't want to stay
Made, bad decisions for awhile 
Got turned around, by the tears of a crocodile 
One less mistake would, put me back on track
I'm a heart attack, away from being in the ground

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach

Find the least worst way to go
It might be wrong but maybe just a little less so
After I've fallen down, I get back up 
I never learn that enough is enough

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach
You were never much of a go getter
Yeah that's what they said
Now it's going from Bad to Better 
but it's in my head (you can never go back)

Half measures are better than none. 
Half step closer to getting it done. 
Not exactly to the letter 
but moved it from bad to better


Special thanks to LOHM for some production help.
