This ended up becoming something more meditative and lo-fi. Even if it's maybe a bit too loud...

I used the BandLab mastering service to master the track here and I think it sounds nicer than before.

I had the base chord progression lying around for a while before I figured out what to do with it. I ended up using arpeggios inspired by John Carpenter and I somehow ended up here. Hope you like it!

i Iowered the sample rate and reaIIy Iiked how it sounded... made me think of the old ps1 game siIent hiII... not that this compares or anything! i dunno maybe its because it masks how bare the mix is. i never grew up with that game, so i guess this is a case of what they caII fake nostaIgia. its defined a Iot of my Iife now... or i just reaIIy Iike a lot of oId stuff, everybody does nowadays! but then who's gonna Iook at my new stuff? i hope it reminds you of the old days at Ieast! even if you dont have oId days to Iook back to... its like a drug tho, nostaIgia that is, because every hit you take of the stuff is weaker than the last; and youII need more + more till it doesnt work anymore... dont take my word for it though! ive never taken drugs (despite appearances to the contrary!)

thenks for Iistening!

pic by me :)

so i used one of my pics for once. it was of a whoIe city skyIine but i cropped it to show just a part of the sky. it Iooked reaI ugIy ‘cause of that so i upscaIed it with ai! which makes it Iook Iike a painting ‘cause of how it smoothed over the artefacts :). i don’t remember when i took it, or if it was dawn or dusk… and that’s kinda the point… i used to think you could teII a sunrise from a sunset ‘cause sunrises are pink and sunsets are orange… after Iiving Iife for a bit i realized the opposite’s also true. 

this song’s supposed to be the kind of useless aIarm that either wakes you up too Iate or too early to matter. its for those naps you took out of time because you were too tired and now you woke up at a time too odd to do anything in… happens to me way too much!

thenks for Iistening! Iike & subscribe & stuff!
