Ocean Star

"Longing" is my first fully original song—a deeply personal piece born from the isolating reality of the 2021 lockdown.

Produced during a challenging period of professional upheaval and emotional searching, this track became my healthier outlet for coping with depression and the desperate need for connection. I sought refuge in the dreamy, soft tones of Wong Kar Wai films, longing for strength, hope, and the simple desire to be chosen.

The Sound:

Key: Original chord progression and melody written in the poignant key of C Minor.

Instrumentation: I layered an electric guitar to deliver a gritty yet somber tone, used strings to build a climatic tug toward self-reassurance, and was inspired by artists like Khalid to craft a smooth, impactful sound.

The Finish: The end features an improvised moment on the piano, combining a grand piano with the sound of water flowing, representing a quiet energy and a return to inner peace.

For a long time, insecurity kept this track close, but the overwhelmingly positive feedback after premiering it—with comments like, "This goes hard," and, "It had me feel within myself"—gave me the courage to release it.

I'm incredibly proud of this art. "Longing" is the moment I chose myself, and it is the beginning of a new chapter for Teck Savvy originals.
