about

— 💭 a while back, my wife pallavi and i were late into the night around a campfire, and i left my field recorder running to capture some of our conversations. there was a very poignant part of what she said that deeply resonated with me — and those precious few seconds of dialogue became a feeling i latched onto for months. i stripped the 10 second piece of the audio file which was littered with fire crackles, and imported it into a song i’d been stuck on for *years*. a song in which i was never able to decide what was the correct way to move forward, feeling totally hopeless. all the usual self-doubt we engage in. that piece of dialogue became the soul of what made this song special to me, and i re-worked it to be completely centered around the idea of this weight we carry around with us, and how to break free from it. this song is about that, and the feeling of liberating yourself from it.

because after many years of self-doubt and writer’s block, i’m finally mustering up the courage to finish and release a song of my own. i did say 2024 was the time to be scrappy (and happy), and this is me taking concrete steps towards creating music that i’ve always dreamed of in my head. suffice to say that, i too, feel weightless putting this song out into the world.
