Oh that wistful wistful synth on dear diary immediately put me in a meleancholic, memories space. Reminds me of the game Coffee Talk somehow - I think perhaps it's evoking the feeling of getting to know parts of people's lives in passing?
City girl immediately hops up and gives me VA11HALLA vibes, and they carry on to you bring me joy. I think it's that gorgeously sparkly top melody over those lovely wide feeling pads. Gorgeous.
On to Come with me now and I feel the nervous excitement of an opportunity to do something new arising. This could be difficult but it could be so, so worth it! Let's go!
Uncontrollable friction is a wonderful tension builder, while still keeping those wavey, washy synth vibes going. Really digging the consistency of instrumentation too throughout everything.
Love lost is a lovely interlude feeling piece. Sometimes you gotta get those emotions out of you and into the aether and this feels like that to me. Things aren't hopeless, but they're tough. What a wonderful piece. Thank you.
That one summer night is up next, and I needed this after Love Lost. Really helped wrap the feelings that Love Lost stirred up together. And oh gosh the vocals were a really nice surprise. I'm a real sucker for capping an instrumental soudntrack off with a vocal track, and what a finish.
That was wonderful to listen to. My favourite track was You bring me joy, but Love lost made me feel the most.
