Where Things Are At

A few months ago, I boiled three years of work down to six tracks. At the time I thought, “This is an EP.” It felt clean and manageable, like a way to finally get something out there. But as I kept working on it, I realised the material deserved a bigger frame. There was more I wanted to say, more I wanted the project to hold, and six tracks didn’t feel like the full picture. That’s when the idea shifted from an EP into a full album, and the project was put on hold until I had enough music to do it justice.

About a month ago, one track — Out of My Mind — started standing out on its own. It made sense to pull it out and release it as a single, and once I did that, it naturally grew into its own small world. I added a couple of b-side style tracks to sit with it, and it became a proper EP instead of just a lone single. That process showed me that sometimes a track wants its own space, separate from the bigger project.

Right now, I’m working on a new three-track EP called Broken. It feels like the right size for where my creativity is at the moment — focused, emotionally tight, and a good step forward while the full album waits for its moment. The album is still planned, just pushed into the future a bit, hopefully during my time at university when I’ll have the structure and environment to take on something that big properly.

I’m not trying to rush anything. Each piece is finding its place naturally, and I’m letting the projects grow at their own pace.
