The clock's indifferent report of the time brought little solace.

Another late night...another lonely night. They've been more frequent lately.

The steamy bits of punctuation marking their time together, most often spent folded upon one another, had given way to a run-on of distance and self-doubt.

He turned over again. Maybe this time, he could finally get some sleep.

Yay for the x68! It's like OPM, except I don't have to make my shitty drum patches sound less tinny.

This track is a collab with Kilo that tried to marry the idea of a groove with something more sentimental and even — to us, at least — reminiscent of 80s love scene ballads. The contrasting sections represent the hot and cold moments of a romance experienced in blinding flashes of fire, but that can never quite last.

In sommelier fashion, it is best paired with our other x68 collab, Night Shift, envisioned in part as a connected arc or chapter of the same persona's purview.

This track is sensual and cozy, like being buried under a pile of naked people.

"Buried Under a Pile of Naked People" was actually the working title. What a coincidence! (Also, thank yinz for the kind words!)
