MAXIMUM COPE

🍂 Nymphs Peering Down 🍂 (.sf2)

I've been working on this record for the better part of 3+ years. Much of the over-all concept was born out of a response to things related to the COVID-19 pandemic, either with themes of 'Escapism' and 'Isolation' (and the comfort that can come with it at times), or wanting to mentally remove myself to a safe space away from reality, as well as binge-watching trash TV with my partner, like 'Love Island', which definitely inspired the album cover and some of the track titles (such as 'Villa Dreamin'). Aesthetically there's also some loose nods to the liminal spaces present in "Hyperbolic Time Chamber" vibes from 'DBZ', the digital world as depicted in the 'Digimon' movie from the 90's, and my love for Pokemon (with 'Rare Candy'). I hope you enjoy this journey from start to finish!
