how it feels to look back to the last 2 months of my life

time heals <3 have patience

lyrics:

i wish i could convey
the feelings i have felt
the striking light
of my heavy broken heart 

the pieces of myself
the memories i've held
it all comes back to me
like the cold in autumn 

how can i explain
that April is just a fiction
that i cannot remember 
the sweet sound of your voice 

oh did i screw it up?
or am i freaking out?
it would be nice to talk to you
to put an end to this 

(...)

so i will write a letter
as a tribute to our romance
and say the things that you'd expect to hear 

i just wish i could hand it to you
let you know that i regret the way i acted when it was over
but i'd rather keep quiet instead

(spanish blabbering)

1,000 unique artists. 24 hours. On August 6th, 2022, the FORM community came together to make the most ambitious All Nighter yet. With tracks ranging from metal, to neuro funk, to acoustic and heartstring-pulling tunes, there is something for absolutely everyone across these 44 tracks. The hard work and groundbreaking ideas of the FORM community never cease to amaze.

One thing remains true: All Nighter is a testament to our ability to be unapologetically creative. Despite the sleep deprivation, render errors, and tirelessly waiting for your collaborator to wake up and submit the finished product, the process and the result are equally worth it. To create something out of scratch in a single day-- to create at all-- is an enormous feat. You simply have to get started.

All proceeds from All Nighter, Vol. 7 will be going to COPE, a charity dedicated to eliminating health disparities for the Navajo Nation.

Lyrics:
Rain falls on me
And everything i see
I can't lie, i don’t wanna die 

Your bones have turned to dust
It’s hard to adjust 
I’ll sleep in for now

When the sun comes seeds will grow
When the sun comes
When the fence fall down we’ll repair it
When the fence fall down

All i’ve collected 
Will be discarded
It hurts to know it will end

In a century i’ll be gone
Will I meet you if I don't believe in god?
Or just live in my sons head

When the sun comes seeds will grow
When the sun comes
When the fence fall down we’ll repair it
When the fence fall down

When the sun comes seeds will grow
When the sun comes
When the fence fall down we’ll repair it
When the fence fall down

Let it grow, let it grow
I’ve never felt so lonely
Until you found me
And grabbed me by the hand

Let it glow, let it glow
I’ve never left so empty
Until you saw me
And put your arms around me

Let it grow, let it grow
I’ve never felt so lonely
Until you found me
And grabbed me by the hand

Let it glow, let it glow
I’ve never left so empty
Until you

Lyrics

I miss days where I would play games in my room
Your hazel eyes are nothing I’ll forget anytime soon

It rained so hard, water is up to my neck
And without your lies, I wonder if anything will last

If you go I’ll surely die
If you go I’ll surely die
If you go I’ll surely die
If you go I’ll surely die

Could it be different?
What happened?
Could it be different?
What happened?

Oh my god, it seems like this will never end
Blink your eyes and it was nothing to begin
Oh my friend, who am I to talk to when I’m sad?
Hazel eyes, please listen to me one last time

If you go I’ll surely die
When you go I’ll surely die
If you go I’ll surely die
When you go I’ll surely die

Could it be different?
What happened?
Could it be different?
What happened?

Serendipity

@kokogane @pivot1

On the bright and early morning of August 12th, 2023, over 1,000 creatives began their 24-hour work session that resulted in 558 unique songs and 66 album covers. Musicians bounced out stems for each other and shared samples, visual artists scoured the Internet for fonts and graphics, and everyone excitedly buzzed about what would come of it all. The final result? 45 of the most outstanding, creative, and genuine tracks our corner of the digital world has to offer—with an equally beautiful album cover to match.

The real enrichment lies in the act of creation. A piece of art does not have to be forward-thinking or never-seen-before, nor does it have to be better than the last; it simply has to be. To create something without worry of what others might think, to have fun with your work, is one of the greatest things this world has to offer—digital or otherwise.

All proceeds from All Nighter Vol. 8 will be going to Out & Equal, an organization dedicated to workplace equality for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Kogane & Park Bird - Monotone

i should've stopped holding things back when there's no guarantee if there's ever a good time to ever show things to the world

things change so quickly, and you may never know where you'll be in a year or two, let alone how the world will be in less than that

..

..

this is a song i made last year, probably one of the only ones I made that is of full-length, and I felt like that was a testament of how life has been these past few years - and perhaps life had finally caught up to me, or I have lost my love for music or both.

i wish i didn't hold back so many of my releases over the years because of short-sighted, ambitious endeavors because i feel like i probably would have improved as an artist way more if i did - a streamline of ideas is way better than the unfulfilled promises, 6 unfinished albums, and friendships lost over the last 10 years.

looking back now, I'm just left frustrated about what could have been - and the lasting impression that this shit isn't worth it anymore. The times caught up to me. All of my internet music heroes are all but gone. The internet music listening scene is no longer how it once was.

I know how brash and embarrassing it is to dump personal garbage onto a piece like this, but I always felt like it was strangely appropriate to the art - I always saw 'keyseeker' as a project, a journal of sorts told by woven stories. I felt like if there was a way to solidify the context in which we create as something we can look back on, we can understand and appreciate things more without falling knee-deep into the cynicism of how the modern audience digests art: there's only 3 ways we take in art these days: masterpiece, mid, trash. And that's the worst way to ever see the world.

I do appreciate y'all for sticking around. It's unfortunate that I still feel so burnt out these days about music and the surrounding community at large - so much so that I hardly listen to much newer music at all.

that being said, I do find this a bit of a cop out for announcing a "new song" when this song was finished for over a year and I just felt like it wasn't good enough. I'll dig up some more older songs and maybe finish some newer ones for a final demo compilation later this year. this will be my last music for a long while. I had so many ideas and stories to share through my music but I personally can't take the pain of lost opportunities, unfinished projects, skill issues, software limitations, and FOMO anymore. i'll be focusing on other things in life after this.

thank you for 10 years of keyseeker. I don't know how else to say this but I really did appreciate everything from everyone. from every message or comment, to every shared experience in between.

I'm sure I lost so many people along the way. But for those unfamiliar, we will end it the same way we started - by quitting when it felt like things had just begun.

.

maybe someday, we will take our place again.
but it's time to take the long path back home.

Love without a name

In the hush after the storm, the forest begins to breathe again.
Northern Soul: November Air is a collection of songs about that stillness — when the air clears, the work is done, and mercy feels like wind through pine.
Written and produced in the cinematic folk-soul language of THOCE, these tracks blend acoustic guitar, felt piano, brass, nyckelharpa, and strings into warm, human stories of endurance and grace.
Each song is a reflection of quiet strength: the sound of light returning to cold air, of hearts mending in their own time.
No grandeur, no noise — just the pulse of the North rediscovering its soul.
Listen slowly.
Breathe.
November air is enough.

The Sunset Song

This is Track # 3 of my album Christmas In Montana.
