It was a Sunday afternoon in early fall during the pandemic. I’d left NYC to stay at a wildlife refuge in Delaware, and my bedroom / makeshift studio window faced an expansive marsh on a wildlife refuge. I was working on writing a new album. Instead of being attached to any one particular song, I started approaching the process in a more zen-like way, just showing up for the work and being open to what would come. I was putting the pieces together after leaving a bad relationship and processing the awakening to the depths of hard personal struggles. As the sun reflected off the marsh water, bits and pieces of the beat, bass, melodies, and chord progressions started to fall into place. Imagine manipulated vocals and fx playing around like ear candy, mixing it up with jazzy chords and beats inspired by UK garage, all leading to this open-beat Jersey bass party. It's a whole mood—melodic, groovy, and simply good times. This song flowed into being quickly like a glimmer of light, a voice calling out that it’s time to step into your future self. "I know the answer's in your eyes. I feel the beating of the truth." Mad love, x Alarke
