fun fact: mou! actually began as a 'weekend challenge' between a friend and i. shortly after the US covid lockdown, we decided to practice writing difference genres of music. on a friday evening, another friend of ours would randomly select a genre, and the next two days would be spent producing a song that we would then share come monday. that particular weekend, though the lyrics came much later, mou! was born.
lyrics
wide awake i think of ways to let you go
the fabric of my life has frayed from what i know
do the veins of each and every tree feel the weight of water?
do the ways you've changed my everyday amount to less than what we have to offer?
what does it mean if we communicate in ways we hate?
growth, change, spite
“give it some time”
ね疲れた (hey, i'm tired)
あ~ (ah...)
もう (enough)
いいですけどべつに (it's ok, it's nothing)
どうせ。 (whatever.)
lets just see
「気付かなかった」君は言うけど。。。("I didn't notice," you say. .. ..)
as the waves crash over me
「信じてよ」なんて ("Trust me")
聞き飽きた (tired of hearing it)
there's a place where i go, and i know
you'll never know if i don't open the door
here's the key
もう ! (enough!)
all the times that I believed you,
I was wrong
ガラス、砕けても (glass, even if broken)
砂は戻らない (Sand does not return)
信じて (believe me)、I was wrong
how did we get here?
downcast eyes, unfeeling
from outside you're hard to read
have you seen the sunrise?
just look up, there's such a range unseen
unconsciously, we associate all the little things,
like hemlock in the air
on the pavement, lights, they glisten
and raindrops speak for the things we keep inside
sing to me, your fantasy
i'll take you there
all of the growth, change, spite
“give it some time”
do the veins of each and every tree feel the weight of water?
do the ways you've changed my everyday amount to less than what we have to offer?
もう (enough)
いいですけどべつに (it's ok, it's nothing)
どうせ。 (whatever.)
lets just see
「気付かなかった」君は言うけど。。。("I didn't notice," you say. .. ..)
as the waves crash over me
「信じてよ」なんて ("Trust me")
聞き飽きた (tired of hearing it)
there's a place where i go, and i know
you'll never know if i don't open the door
here's the key
もう ! (enough!)
all the times that I believed you,
I was wrong
ガラス、砕けても (glass, even if broken)
砂は戻らない (Sand does not return)
信じて (believe me)、I was wrong
how did we get here?
all the times that I believed you,
I was wrong
ガラス、砕けても (glass, even if broken)
砂は戻らない (Sand does not return)
信じて (believe me)、I was wrong
how did we get here?
Over 2.5 hours of ambiance and mood. I haven't gotten to listen to it in full yet. Beautifully evocative virtual soundscapes, subdued one minute, provocatively intrusive the next. Great on a night drive, or working music, could even meditate to it (my yogi gf loved it as drive ambience) My first Disasterpeace experience and I don't really listen to this sort of music and I find myself glued. Favorite keeps changing. Bruce Pandolfo
