To say to each other
I bet when I leave my body for the sky the wait
The wait will be worth it" - Local Natives

Rock

My piano teacher passed away a little shy of one month ago. I can recount numerous lessons when we sat and listened to records and cassette tapes piped through his giant tube speakers. Beyond just tinkling on the black and white keys, he taught me to love music. His love for music has left a deep imprint on me that translates to everything I create.

'Words' originated from a Mendelssohn piano series, "Songs Without Words". The simple melodies have always echoed within me. In a world where there's so much noise, these melodies resonate louder than ever. I produced this track partly as a gut reaction towards my teacher's death, but partly due to Mendelssohn's open-ended intentions for his series. 'Words' was produced to allow the listener’s own imagination to run free, and to take a deep, long breath in the midst of so much chaos and disorder.
