The end of the Matt era--I started this disco project back in 2020 when I first went college, and now as a college graduate, I am releasing this last major funk project for quite a while. 

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey.

[INTRO]

"From Far Away" was first written on a mid-August evening in 2025 and completed in November. The sparseness of the melody and somber chords create a forlorn feeling... like a vague memory; just out of reach and observed from a distance.

From Far Away

Dreams.

“Sorry Shannon” is a cinematic solo piano piece inspired by classical themes and emotional storytelling. Built around expressive melodies and a somber harmonic progression, this track conveys grief, remorse, and reflective sadness—making it an ideal underscore for drama, documentary scenes, character moments, or emotional storytelling in film and video.

Sorry Shannon

Counting Galaxies

there are two narratives for this song: A feeling of when someone is laughing at you - A final front in a losing battle

The Feeling of Schadenfreude

We go through cycles like it's heavy rain
We go up we fall down
I know I know I know yeah
We go through cycles hoping things will change
We go up we fall down

And it was last week
You said you need me
Have your heart completely
Then you switched up
Dropping all the missing pieces
I know
I know your weakness
I know you better
You change your cars just like the weather
I know
I know

Said you'd rather live another life
Another time
How you don't wanna hurt
Baby is this really bye
Let time fly by
Until it's right

Said we have these phases in our lives
All the time
I don't want it to change
You will always be mine
We'll have our time
Don't let this be goodbye

Don't let this be goodbye
I don't wanna say no more
No no oh no
Don't let this be the end 
I cannot take no more
No no oh no
My brain's filled with memories
About how we used to be

We used to drive down the road
Doesn't matter where we were
Making nowhere our new home

Said you'd rather live another life
Another time
How you don't wanna hurt
Baby is this really bye
Let time fly by
Until it's right

Said we have these phases in our lives
All the time
I don't want it to change
You will always be mine
We'll have our time
Don't let this be goodbye

Last week
You needed me
Love of my life

This week
You're better off without me
Until we die

Said you'd rather live another life
Another time
How you don't wanna hurt
Baby is this really bye
Let time fly by
Until it's right

Said we have these phases in our lives
All the time
I don't want it to change
You will always be mine
We'll have our time
Don't let this be

We go we go we go
Different head spaces
We go we go we go
Through our phases

Phases

Without You

Song about reflection and milestones in life.

Remembering

Finally made something after a long dry spell.

aware

if you want me
walk in
if youre leaving
dont spin
im right here 
unmoved by your storms

if you feel me
lean in
if you doubt it
dont spin
i wont fold
just stay close 
or dont 

hold tight	  the drones are falling
one spark 	 well outrun the following
no chains 	 just static behind us
one chance 	 before the grid can find us

if youre coming
come bright
if youre leaving
leave tonight
no more smoke
no more half truths
just take your time
and you do you

i wont chase you
i wont turn cold
ill hold my ground
if you get bold
if you reach out
i wont let go 
but i wont drag
what wont come home
    
hold tight	  the drones are falling
one spark 	 well outrun the following
no chains 	 just static behind us
one chance 	 before the grid can find us

if youre coming
come bright
if youre leaving
leave tonight
no more smoke
no more half truths
just take your time
and you do you

if you love me
come through
if youre leaving
then fuck you too
no more smoke
no more half truths
just take your time
and you do you

i wont chase you
i wont turn cold
ill hold my ground
if you get bold
if you reach out
i wont let go 
but i wont drag
what wont come home

Come Bright

Use It Just Credit Me (The Guitar Is Based On Once A Flowers Solo) 

White Void - Random LMS

Drew is a lonely, devoted fan whose whole world has quietly collapsed, and the only thing holding him together is Mio’s music.
One rainy night, after being ignored online, abandoned by his girlfriend, and feeling like his hero doesn’t see him, he starts driving too fast with a head full of anger, alcohol, and hurt. 
As messages to Mio pile up unsent, he types one last text “Dear Mio! Everything’s a blur and I don’t think that I’ll last..” but the phone slips from his hand in the chaos, landing on the wet asphalt, screen glowing in the rain while red and blue lights strobe in the distance.

Only Love Remains

Drew (Bonus Track)

This song is a reclaimation of peace with your Soul, with God, with feeling alive finally in your life, wanting to capture that feeling of intense love with life, and even in love. Love 4 You is the love you hold inside you, and you can give it to everything and everyone once you give it to yourself first. It's a journey of patience as you learn to love yourself again, not through your own lenses but through the lens of GOD. Everything else is up from there.
