Solitude drenched in melancholy. Repose harks back to early childhood fears, instilled and developed through adolescence, manifesting in adult anxiety. Synthesised rhythmic loops are reminiscent of the artist’s memories of a looming clock tower which once stood over him in a seaside town he called his childhood home. Repose is a desperate search for meaning and understanding in a world that offers none. It is a despairing search for solace, and a journey of discovery - inviting the listener to take time in this moment, to be, to reflect and let go.
