EXUVIUM is my apocalyptic lullaby. My love letter to the deep. The conclusion to the unresolved dissonance of widow, and the culmination of the world of OBLIVIØN. I hope it makes you feel at peace while you storm the gates of hell. 🖤 Out now. Listen anywhere music streams <3

In the spirit of celebrating non-AI creative work; it’s the anniversary of this music video, in which I held my breath for 4.5 minutes in order to perform the entire song underwater in one shot. No FX, no splicing of takes. It took me 3 months of training to get my breath hold up to a stationary 5 minutes in preparation for the shoot (don’t worry, the drowning is acting, I wasn’t running out of air.) It’s a slow-paced video. But the focus on a gradual buildup of surreal dread is meant to activate mirror neurons in the watcher, the same ones that turn on when you see someone yawn. I wanted you, over the course of 4 minutes, to slowly drown with me. To experience the feeling that birthed this song in the first place. (Full thing on YT, it’s called Mabúl)

It was an honor to score the theme song for Wuthering Waves’ new character, Galbrena. Her backstory was really compelling to me. I got to deep dive into her entire backstory, pick the brain of the character creator, and dissect the in-game experience for a few months before conceptualizing the theme, and I’m happy it’s finally out.

One of the funniest production experiences I’ve had getting my niece to sing the lyrics for this thing.

Thank you to everyone who has come out to share these beautiful intimate spaces with me on this tour. It's been such a pleasure to dive into this other side of my art, focusing so intently on the nuances of lyricism and melody. I hope you guys have loved it as much as I have. San Francisco and Los Angeles are up next 🤍

Working on this acoustic EP was such a pleasure, a perfect decompression after the insanity of the first part of this year. I hope it helps make your life just a little bit softer 🕊️ stem.ffm.to/acousticepvol2

The original version of DRIP was coded with contradiction. There’s such an undertone of grief and despair in the lyricism, yet the instrumental carried a strange, almost playful energy. That dissonance was intentional — the juxtoposition of those elements captured this sort of manic tension, of someone trying to hold themselves together while their bloodlust keeps leaking through the seams. I knew it would be artistically interesting to remove that tension, to see what would happen if the lyricism was left bare and paired with an instrumental that actually reflects the grief. The tragedy of someone who, metaphorically, not only doesn’t stop until their teeth are touching, but physically can’t. Someone who is willing, yet incapable. And grieves that fact.

Anachronism was one of the songs I was most eager to reinterpret acoustically. Underneath the intense production lays melodies and lyrics that are actually quite delicate. I wanted to reveal that softer, wounded side of its essence. The desperate lament, instead of the apocalyptic wail.
