criminal - 2024-05-21
Description:
i actually started writing this one by sitting out in a field somewhere, which is a pretty good way to get inspiration imo! i do believe the lyrics speak for themselves, to me, they’re about actual laws holding the queer community down – it’s kind of inspired by LGBTQ+ content being banned for minors where i live.
as for the music part, i don’t usually do more than just acoustic recordings, so i’m just happy that i managed to put it together! it could definitely use more takes and all, buuuuuuuut mentall illness and other reasons!
this was my submission for the Fedivision 2024.
The Pirate and the Preacher - 2023-11-22
Description:
kinda wanted to try 3/4, the first line was “i even went as far as shaving my mask off”, so that’s kinda the thesis (gender shit)
would you MIND - acoustic - 2023-07-25
Description: i first came up with 6 specific lines at a time when i felt a bit distressed (starting with “what you’re doing is no crime”) - from there on, i decided to expand it a bit more into an “inspection” of my mind, mainly its overthinking and its ability to be overwhelmed. in the chorus (if i can call it that), the lines are linked by a word, this could be also a metaphor for how the brain can wander off (but i did not come up with this consciously, i just realized that it is symbolic :D)
Skeleton in the Closet - acoustic - 2022-09-30
Description: Acoustic recording of a song originally written for electric, I feel like the song’s themes are relatively easy to understand if you pay attention to the lyrics (or maybe even the title).
