Hello world...

So I guess I'm here because I wish it was still 2014, or something? Certainly I miss the way music was in the late 2000s and 2010s, and how we used to interact with it. The way that bands like The 1975 and Foals and Death Cab and Radiohead and and and... would build these real, tangible worlds with actual full-length albums and amazing self-referential lyrics and incredible, beautiful imagery. The energy of live shows in small, sweaty venues. The heady black-and-white romanticism of it all. The mystique.

As far as I can tell, much of that has been lost in a perpetually looping tidal wave of 15-second dopamine hits. This is the new reality for small and mid-size artists; the old world-building way seems now to be the preserve of established artists with significant financial support. As a creative person, I find the whole thing overwhelming. So I create my music, quietly release it, and don't really engage with "promotion" in the new grassroots sense; it's simply too much for my tiny mind to deal with.

All of this is to say, I've come back to Tumblr to create a repository for my work, in the hope that people who are still here remember the old times just like me, and maybe want something new that follows the same philosophy. Is there anybody out there?

Foals - Inhaler (with lyrics in description)

[halcyon-drift]

'Cause if I go Where the flowers grow Into the deep below Oh, would you forget me now? And if I could Take the pain away Wash the stains away Oh, would you forgive me now?

[noahandthegiraffe]

Don't let go, just breathe slow

So hold on, it will pass

Don't give up, don't let go

Grey clouds, they'll, they'll break up

Just breathe slow

💙

on german ebay kleinanzeigen you find the most random stuff: sb is selling a signed life is yours vinyl for 55 bucks and just randomly attached a photo of themselves meeting the band in Köln (it was defo in Köln, I was there too) with the comment “signed and never played, unfortunately Foals just didn’t grow on me… “

at least we get a pic of the boys

Give it all

“I know you could be here with me By the rain and the palm of the valley But you're there by the tube stop in the freezing rain

See you there, wanna see you some day As you look back, I'm pulling away You caught the bus and I caught the train All that remains are words in the rain

...

So solo, I see you there You fall like a fifty weight The time goes I'll be right there I feel, I feel there's a fork in the road...”

A Knife in the Ocean - Foals

[matunasxd]

I see a mountain in my way It’s looming larger by the day I see a darkness in my faith I'll drive my car without the brakes

[edsonlnoe]

When the end comes my way Will I drop to my knees and pray? And if my parents ask you Tell them I'll be okay

Foals, Syrups
