Somehow, I got inexplicably obsessed with this image while making the artwork.
It got me thinking: lived experience is the root of art. Everything you go through passes through your consciousness, eventually taking shape as your own expression.
Back to the music:
As usual, the journey begins with some laid-back 4/4 grooves, gradually opening things up with a few broken beats.
In the middle section, dub and deep techno lead us into deeper states of hypnosis. Around the peak, I slipped in a post-rock track (I think), pushing the emotional tension a little further.
Toward the end, things drift between hypnosis and groove. For the closing stretch, I slowly bring the sound back toward the club floor before letting everything gently descend.
