I literally live to find songs like this. All perfected in its sound vibe journey. I listen to thousands of new mediocre songs just to find one like this. THANKYOU for being a true artist and loving music for the sake of the craft!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Very deep and just sooooo sexy. Love to dance to that

@ freshest mastering / sound design I've heard on a track

Froggie is the first song on my upcoming album, Hilo. Hilo is the soundtrack to a story of dying while being alive, transforming, and becoming reborn while trying to hold dearly to whom one has been. 

3 years ago, my life changed when I learned I had been adopted. In an instant, nothing seemed real. What I knew about my background was based on a fabrication. In a way, my life had been an illusion. 

I began to distrust reality itself, at the very time I would be forced to recreate an identity. I needed to throw away everything I thought I knew and start over. It was necessary not only to forge a new identity, but also to survive psychologically. In turn, I emerged with a new life perspective and, essentially, a new life. 

From moments of levity over the absurdity of the situation, to deep despair and emotional prolapse, as an artist, I was inspired to work on new music. But toward what end I didn't then know. Without consciously realizing it at the time, I began working on this album.

Hilo is a dialogue of dichotomies: anxiety and adventure, ecstasy and terror, free fall and uplift. Each low answered by a high. The album is informed by the holy trinity of house, techno, and disco, speaking to fans of each, but not beholden to a single genre. Equal parts rave and sofa, dance tracks and indie songs; music to take drugs to, music to fall in love to, music to exercise to, music to exhale to, music to rage to, music to chill to. Music about birth and destruction and the ways we hurt ourselves and others. Songs about yearning and satiation, loss and wealth of spirit. About loving someone more than oneself. The graceful way a simple gesture can save someone's life. The ways we can burn every ounce of energy we have yet keep going. Forever. 

Froggie is named for the raining frogs in the book of Exodus, one of the plagues visited upon Egypt by God to compel Pharaoh to release the Israelites from enslavement. The Hilo story begins with me learning the truth--my truth--a truth so strange and unexpected it was like frogs raining from the sky. Afterward, nothing would be the same. 

This is my story, but it is also a narrative--as old as Greek mythology--of anyone or group who has faced crisis and survived, emerging galvanized and more spiritually complete. 

Allow me to take you on a ride.
