Words: Fanpage

I’m gonna be honest with you, this is a song that holds a lot of my troubles. I get this feeling sometimes that my life is just not on the right track and I have no way to fix it, I’m just a little bit too late or realise that i got fooled, reality cracks. I recorded this song in one day at Drömfakulteten, the collective I am a part of. The events happening that day made that crack. This might sound a bit pretentious or so but that was just one of those days, a line was drawn and something walked over it. A dear friend on drugs, splinters of a mirror and a love gone bad. As I was gonna go and make my lunch after been recorded from early morning I stepped on a splinter that got stuck in my feet. Jumping on one leg back into my studio and the mess, still there as it almost had become a part of me, I attract it and absorb it and so did the music. I have this need to process with sounds and sometimes when I am at a club i just lean back to the bass speaker and slowly.

Some weeks passed, things started to cool down and I went to visit my childhood home in the north. As I was there I walked in the forest, this place is just forrest in the summer and snow in the winter and on a cloudless night you can see the milky way. I listened to the mixes as I was in that phase of the production and walking on a road made for the machines to take down trees and turn them into paper I started to record video. This is what I ended up with, this is me.
