Coming Undone

COMING UNDONE (PROD. EEM TRIPLIN & STEVEN SHAEFFER)

Closer Than Close is about taking the risk to know somebody. It’s about that tipping point in a relationship after getting know somebody where you ask whether you want to invest your time and energy into making your bond something greater. As an artist, a friend, a lover, and a human, the bonds I’m creating with people are sacred to me, and something that precious doesn’t happen overnight. We’ve all got insecurities, worries, fears, skeletons in the closet that we hope to move forward through in an effort to make our mark on the world, but if I’m sharing that with you, it’s special, and you’re special to me. And if you’re special to me now, I want you to be special to me forever. As I sing in the hook, “I only ever want it with you.”

The song essentially asks the question: Are we gonna be close, or are we gonna be closer than close?

I wrote and produced this song in Atlanta in a creative frenzy, my approach shifted by new energy. It’s got everything I like from the best of N.E.R.D and Daniel Caesar, plus older inspirations like the Pixies and Queen sprinkled in too. Really excited for everybody to hear this new sound I’m cooking up.

On his sixth studio release Roulette, the prolific producer, songwriter, pianist and MC Alfa Mist has created his own sci-fi universe - a vast dystopia where themes of revenge, forgiveness and redemption loom large.

Alfa Mist’s albums have always tackled big themes. This time, however, he explores an imagined near-future in which reincarnation is discovered to be a potent tool linking dreams and past lives. But with this discovery comes consequences: ethical, moral and philosophical. “If reincarnation is real, how does that shape society?” he explains. “If reincarnation means accumulation of knowledge, would you share it and enable everyone to understand more about the world? Or do you struggle for power? And do some people want to stop others from remembering who they were?”
Over 15 tracks, Alfa explores these ideas with heady potency. Each song is a spin of the wheel – a different song and character. The musician’s signature is still there – lambent keys, intuitive groove, free-flowing jazz improvisation – but Roulette is imbued with a smoky psychedelia. An immersive listen, this album is designed “to feel” on every level, says Alfa. It also contains some of his most impressive arrangements yet - see the eight-minute title track that effortlessly flips through time signatures – “because life’s like that,” says Mist; it’s not always linear.

Roulette underlines Alfa Mist as one of the most forward-thinking composers in UK music, with poignant, plaintive melodies that lodge deep in your psyche. “I’m exploring different parts of myself,” he says. “But obviously, as I grow, all of those parts change. Music is a constant; it’s my state of mind that I constantly chisel and work on and make sure that’s always growing and staying interested in new things. As long as I do that, it’ll come out in the music.”

Lyrics: 

Jeep in the fall/
I bet it won't stall/
Girlfriend and all/
Aint worried bout yall/
Proving em wrong/
One step at a time/
Giving your all/ 
I bet they can't even face it/

Gimme what i wanted/
What i needed/
What i thought it was to be free/
Gimme what i wanted/
What i needed/
What i thought it was to be me/

Something has broken in the atmosphere/
No need to worry/
You should have no fear/
So many lies told to us as people/
When will he come and save us/
From ourselves/

Ever wonder how i had/
The time to know/
Which one to choose?/
And every step i take towards the answers/
Time is moving faster/
Dont know what to do.
