about

Glimmer: A new chapter brimming with light and colors

Glimmer started with drone experiments and it evolved into a full album. While experiencing some creativity blocks I decided to limit myself to a single instrument which is a synthesizer. Everything in the album is made by bending and shifting synth patches from a single VST. There are occasional strings and piano moments along the way.

Compared to The Age of Spiral, this album carries more positive feelings, I just wanted to make an album that felt grand and life-affirming. Probably the most life-affirming album I have made so far. The inspiration for Glimmer was color itself and how it is bright and ever-lasting. The covers reflect that, they're color experiments I have prepared for Glimmer. I wanted to create a cohesive direction for the artwork.
