"Requiem for 2016" is exactly as the name suggests: a lament for a year of pain, disillusionment and turmoil for countless people around the world. As the world seemingly teeters on the edge of environmental and socio-political disaster, we offer this wordless hymn in the hope that 2017 does not continue in a downward spiral.

"Requiem for 2016” was written and recorded in one day in June of this year. Coincidentally, the day happened to be that of Brexit. As news came in of the United Kingdom’s spectacular decision, we went to a local bar for a couple of glasses of wine sharing sentiments of shock and dismay with patrons. Later, we recorded this with no idea of how much more gloomy the year would get.

Let’s pour one out for 2016 and raise one to a brighter future.

Written, performed, recorded and produced by Luke Howard and Tilman Robinson at Lukktone, Melbourne, on June 23, 2016
