about

Original Release Date: November 24, 2014.

Danbient was recorded at the Sony Theatre in Bridgend College from 2013-14.

This album was made at a difficult point in my life. At that time, I was not in a good place. I constantly got into conflicts with friends in college in both professional and personal terms, which resulted in two of my closest friends and I to go our separate ways and not be friends anymore. I also became very distant with my family, not speaking to them at all and not giving them any notice or letting them help me with things that I struggled with. I was under a lot of pressure with college work, trying to keep up with deadlines and then to make matters worse, I was drinking a lot and started smoking and taking anti-depressants just to help me relax and get through the day.

The first seven months recording was a nightmare, however, in late January 2014, I started getting my creative juices flowing again, once I started making original music for the very first time. It was nerve-racking, but was exciting and I felt more confident to move away from loops and samples and just make music that I personally want to create with a concept in mind, rather than pre-used ideas from loops and samples to create songs from them.

At a time when I felt nothing but sadness, anger and frustration, I find it interesting that the album I made in the end sounded nothing like what was going on, but yet it does at the same time. The themes of loneliness and reflection is the vibe I got now looking back in hindsight and I think it works now that I listen to it five years later.

After the release of Danbient, my life was getting back on track. After half a year without speaking, two of my closest friends and I reconciled and started hanging out and making videos again, I’ve started talking to my family again and letting them help me with my issues, I stopped drinking and smoking and cut them down to a minimum, I’ve completed my Level 3 Creative Media course with good grades and I’ve got my creative juices for music again and haven’t looked back since.

Thank you reading this and I hope you enjoy the bandcamp debut of Danbient.
