I’m proud to present you my newest track and video: Dreams So Deep
I have so many inspirations to thank for making this project possible. @vachemorte for creating this otherworldly track. @ensh for his fantastic Bjork cover that reminded me how weird and awesome Bjork is and inspired the vocal style! @fungusmonk for the most beautiful melody he sang the other day that stuck in my head forever and also the conversation we had about being more confident in our vocals. And an extra special thanks to @greatdabu for giving me this absolutely perfect bit of poetry to work with, <3’s to all of you!
And the biggest thank you in the world to unknown detroit family on vacation 1962 for filming this absolutely stunning and ethereal aquatic dance routine. When I found this footage I felt like I tapped into a synchronicity and all the pieces of this project just snapped together in my head, I knew exactly what I had to do. I only wish I could thank them directly.
When I was editing the sound and visuals, as usual when things were done I watched and listened to it on loop many times as a last pass to see if I wanted to change anything and I started getting the strangest feeling of nostalgia or perhaps deja-vu? I almost felt as though I didn’t create this, that it was already out there in the universe and I was lucky enough to find it. I feel truly BLESSED (stealing this from @everlove!) to have joined this community, it’s given me a surge of creative energy that I am truly thankful for. The entire creation process was extremely emotional and cathartic for me and really took me on a journey. I hope it imparts the same feeling to you and you can join me for three minutes in my inner world.
I suppose that’s enough sentimental preamble, enjoy <3

every night
in dreams so deep
we fall asleep
and plug into
infinity
signs and symbols
start to flow
what will come
where we’ll go
who we’ll meet
how we’ll know
what’s probable
and possible
we choose
the ticking clock of time
starts calling us
we rise again
and fall back into the day
forgetting
in dreams so deep
