The Tathado EP is a sound exploration in textures. As a fractal art enthusiast, Thijmen Hoebink looks for a way to translate the abstract, chaotic, yet natural looking shapes into music. The EP is made with instruments and effects that Thijmen crafted himself in his studio/workshop in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Rest

When I do a deep reflection
I am not coping well
Aimlessly searching
For some poem that can tell
Where to hold on to
And how to feel like nothing but one
Like some Bombadilian monk
Who understands something deeper
Something more profound in life

I think I got traumatised
From watching the casketed
Closed
And seeing life crumble

I'm sitting by the pond
Doing my meditations 
I see two dabbling ducks
Shaking their little butts

It becomes very clear
Or not...
It's hard to explain
I hurl all my pain 
Back in the pond
And study how the ripples dance around

Then i'm overcome by this incredible warmth
And i cry all day long
Not out of sadness but out of love and spiritual

Enlightenment

Ducks

Merry Xmas everybody! Perfectionism is my song about...spoiler-warning...perfectionism. It's pretty self explanatory really. I added some sleigh bells because it's xmas and i'm always a defender for more sleigh bells in music. Hope you enjoy it
