Lyrics:
i don’t really exactly know how to start this
i'm sorry 
I’m not gonna do that 
because i’m just gonna speak from the heart 
because that’s just how i feel 
i don’t know why i feel this way 
i mean i know why, obviously 
but it’s just 
i’ve just never been able to express it like this
like never 
i was extremely grateful
to have him as a friend?
And i felt like i found a connection 
And it just feels like i’ve been left in a ditch
and it feels like 
i’m just left there alone

"Safeguarded, I'm Everything Beautiful" follows a tumultuous, dark yet rewarding journey into self-acceptance. Offering an introspective look into schizophrenia, the Portuguese musician Kmado combines, bends and breaks his musical roots and inspirations at will to convey an immersive and high-intensity experience.

Taking from witch house and shoegaze, navigating into hard dance and chiptune and borrowing flavors from emo and lofi, these genres, among many other sounds, all function as catharsis in some way throughout the album. From the introductory 2-part track "Someone Else Today" establishing the tone of the album through a brutal switch-up from a soft lofi guitar track into an explosive cathartic drop, to the emotionally-charged, anxiety-inducing gabber of "SP Superstar" onto the chaotic fusion of jungle, metal and hard dance of "Dream Weaver", and eventually ending on an eerily satisfying calmer note in "Infinite Light Beams All at Once", the record takes the listener onto Kmado's navigation of his headspace through more troubling mental episodes.

Approaching themes of medication, symptom masking, psychosis, suicidal tendencies, paranoia and dissociation, Kmado, through a healthy dose of distorted, auto-tuned vocals, recounts in retrospect some of his more troublesome times and experiences dealing with his mental illness, ending the record in a bittersweet tone of acceptance.

KMADO - DREAM WEAVER

“The Overload flooded us. Consumed Us. Made us whole again”. As the time when "Transmute" was taking shape, so did the multiple global crisis. "Transmute" is an effort to represent the human spirit and its resiliency amidst the uncertainty, hopelessness and chaos of the current era.

Burnt Offerings is a duo consisting of Arthur Bdt (Arson) and Andres Leon (Laopé).. Their music oscillates from Drone to Cuban music, incorporating everything from traditional Latin instruments to modern sound design tools. These influences converge outside of their original contexts through heavy digital audio processing, deconstruction, and arrangement.  The sound can be best described as a disjointed yet symbiotic relationship between the past and the now.
