Back in 2019, my parents gifted me their old VHS camera and I took it to the woods near the village where I grew up to try it out for the first time. I digitalised the tape a couple of weeks ago and really liked the footage, so I watched it in a loop on one side of the screen while producing beats on the other, and this little tape came out within just a couple of hours.

I kept it very minimal, only sampling recordings of me playing my vibraphone along with adding a simple drum line and a few bass notes. It was very enjoyable for me to go back to making beats in a much more simple way like I used to around 5 years ago, and the meditative & introspective vibe of the music blends really well with those amateur documentary-style visuals.
