I was thinking about euphoria in pop music, that simple, single-minded ecstatic feeling you get from so many love songs. I found some vocal samples I liked and slowed them down and looped them, imagining each one as a kind of sculpture, gently rotating round and round in a neutral, dream-like space. Still euphoric, but frozen like TV static, repeating obsessively like prayer ritual.

1. I STILL FEEL
2. YOU'RE ALL I NEED
3. DON'T RUN FROM ALL THE THINGS YOU FEAR
4. THINKIN' ABOUT YOU, I'M THINKIN' ABOUT YOU
5. WE AIN'T GOT NO PROBLEMS, PROBLEMS, YEAH. I LET 'EM GO
6. TELL ME I'M YOURS
7. AH, JUST DON'T WALK AWAY
8. I DON'T WANNA LOVE YOU BUT I CAN'T SAY NO
9. I WANNA BE WITH YOU
10. YOU TOLD ME YOU WOULD NEVER, EVER FADE AWAY

Tenebrae

“Sun Sets” is an instrumental piece I wrote while processing my grandfather’s passing. It’s built on guitar and piano with some ambient textures, and to me it feels like the journey of a spirit, gently returning home. Hope it brings some peace to whoever listens.
