Virtual Riot is to dubstep what Armin van Buuren is to trance. Not the one to popularize it, but certainly the GOAT of the genre

This is the year I really feel like all this hard work comes together.

2024 was the warmup I needed to get all my remaining music out and wrap up the first decade of Paper Skies. Stepping into 2025; I've never felt so rewarded with the opportunities coming my way - going to take full advantage of every single one, I've never felt so confident in the brand I'm building, and I've never been happier with the consistent new sound of all the music I have coming up. I feel like each of my descriptions on my releases is like a log where I just talk about however tf I'm feeling RIGHT now that I know only my real supporters read, so this will be a good one to look back on. None of what's gonna happen this year is possible without the support of you, reading this right now. Not to "big things coming soon" I'm just really excited.

Obviously always loved Knock2's song writing so I really wanted to spin a cut off his new album. Hope you like my take on this one and tried a few different things across the track.

In 2021-2022, despite my newfound success in the electronic music scene, I ironically found myself at a creative low point. It was like I was cosplaying a distilled marketable version of myself. At some point, I stopped creating music for myself and instead started shaping my sound based on what I imagined others—fans, managers, friends, industry executives—wanted from me. It worked on paper and I still managed to write some music I love - but it was far more strenuous on my mental health than it needed to be. I convinced myself that anything I created that didn’t fit within the “Skybreak Coded” mold had to be ironic.

Through creating ironic art, I realized that only I can define what “Skybreak Coded” really means. It’s a thousand times repeated cliche, but by truly letting go of others perceptions of me and allowing my subconscious to take over, was my path back to creative nirvana. I figured it’d be kinda meta to write this song about that struggle to let go and become the most honest version of myself NOW. Toronto based Ana and Tyr seemed to resonate with this theme greatly. Since starting this tune, we’ve all become great friends, even performing this tune on stage together at the Rampage festival in Belgium.

In preparation to write this project, I deep dove into the roots of the genre to pay my respects to pioneers like Benga, Skream and Coki. The original Dubstep music that came out of Croydon, UK in the early 2000s just has a certain swagger and viscerality to it that I’d never explored in my music before. While it’s a little different sonically to the work these pioneers put down, CAN’T LET GO is my honest attempt to harness that swagger and fuse it with my signature colorful sound design. I hope you enjoy it <3
Lyrics:
Can't let go
I can't let go
Can't let go
I can't let go

Can't let go
Holding on to a part of me
Lost in identity
Only one that you know

Now I'm telling you honestly
Just who I wanna be
How can I let this go

And I'm trying to change
But my mind's playing games
And I'm hiding, I just can't show

How I'm feeling inside
All the words I can't find
And I'm breaking, I can't let go

You only see the highs, not the lows
I'm trying to free the lock on my soul
I'm not the one you think you know
Think you know

Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go

Get up

Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let
Can't let

This garden can’t bloom when I’m with you.

STREET GARDEN is about the sea sick feeling after you break up with someone. When a relationship becomes so wilted that you just have to put it down, but you spend weeks if not months second guessing your decision, fantasizing about if you could have salvaged the good times if you ‘tried harder’. 

Of all the tracks from HALF BLOOD, this one means the most to me because it literally helped me grieve one of the most tumultuous times of my life. Finally releasing this one to the world feels surreal; I can only hope it means as much to someone else as it did to me at my darkest points last year.

—————-

Paper cut on a train ticket to nowhere
In the end, you still found a way to bleed me dry
Sea sick on the waves of my decisions last night
The cities pass by
Could I be your light if I tried?

Could we be more than our mistakes?
What did you see through the decay?
We tend to the seed
But the soil's concrete

And maybe we're stained by our mistakes
Pesticidal love can't be maintained
We try to make do
But this garden can't bloom when I'm with you

Love sick on a subway ride to somewhere
Full carriage but I never felt so damn alone
Your stop's next
Remember when we used to ride?
I hate myself 'cause sometimes I still fantasize
The day you step onboard and I apologize
"Could I be your light if I tried?"

Could we be more than our mistakes?
What did you see through the decay?
We tend to the seed
But the soil's concrete

And maybe we're stained by our mistakes
Pesticidal love can't be maintained
We try to make do
But this garden can't bloom when I'm with you
