A Track From My Latest Albummore

My first self-produced solo single, Perpetual Motion, is about losing yourself in a toxic relationship, and remaining devoted to it despite all the constant fighting and abuse. So if that's relatable for you: I hope you're doing alright now. I did everything on this track (writing, recording, mixing, mastering) all by myself in my tiny bedroom using REAPER, open-source plugins, and my pitifully small gear collection. I think it went ok.more

"This song centres around loss of a child; spiralling aimlessly day after day as each day leaves behind little reminders of the life that once was, or would could have been. It's title is inspired by the John Cameron Mitchell film of the same name (based on the David Lindsay-Abaire Pulitzer Prize Play). I wrote the song thinking about a miscarriage of a child and Parent fall into their own internal shells (shock), separately, and find it difficult to discuss the tragedy. The film got me thinking about what if in a parallel life the child's life existed and watched as we watched on from another... to infinity and beyond. Leaving ourselves little messages for ourselves to ignore/find... and the plummeting through the rabbit hole of the dark space depression and anxiety can take you. I cover the same subjects in many songs but try to colour the songs very differently." - dunkiemore
