Description:

â??These are changing times: sad times but times that are also filled with hope. And I felt like this changing world required a different position from me, another way of relating to it. Working on this album helped me in the process. I was searching for connections: with myself, with others and with something bigger than all of us. Soon I realised that writing an album in solitude â?? like I usually work â?? started to feel hypocritical, and that playing shows at venues with great PA systems and the perfect sound and lights couldnâ??t feel more different from how I normally write my music. So, I started playing in peopleâ??s living rooms. You come in all by yourselfâ?¦ not knowing anybody. And you start talking. About how it feels like weâ??re losing each other. About how Iâ??d like to believe that the disconnect and the harshness that we feel in todayâ??s world can be overcome thru warmth and closeness between people and more closeness with yourself. In-between songs people started sharing their stories, with me and with each other. Many stories were told in these living rooms, stories that all helped shape my album. And I asked myself the same questions during recordings: how direct are we willing to communicate anymore? Weâ??re all showing off our best life moments on Facebook but how much talking do we still do, really? And what information is still real? And how do we rediscover directness and genuine connections? Working with Phill Brown as a producer was a very mindful decision. Apart from his timeless brilliance, Phill still hails from the era of tape machines and thus â??first takesâ??. Nowadays most recordings are perfected per every 10 seconds. Auto-tune, plugins and copy-paste have become the norm. But unless itâ??s being done out of a conscious functional choice, it doesnâ??t feel much different to me than all the fake news that we get bombarded with and it also gets in the way of the connectedness and direct communication that we all seem to crave. This album is my ode to connection, contact and consciousness.â?
