Beautiful Day w/ Lazarusman 05:16
lyrics

These compliments are mixed with low confidence I’m feeling sad on a beautiful day I cannot exactly explain it, but I’m feeling sad on a beautiful day It’s being out but feeling insecure Don’t hug me or ill cry I don't know why I just turned blue Maybe because it’s a beautiful day And I'm feeling sad on a beautiful day Kids running in the street Dips by the river Don't hug me or I’ll cry It’s feeling sad on a very, very beautiful day My thoughts spinning Rainbows like cocktails at the bar These pina coladas do not taste the same I'm feeling sad on a beautiful day Sad on a beautiful day I cannot exactly explain it, but I’m feeling sad on a beautiful day

about

anhedonia /ˌ anhɪˈdəʊnɪə/
noun: anhedonia
The inability to feel pleasure in normally pleasurable activities.

Beautiful Day (w/ Lazarusman):
“It’s peculiar when the day is extremely wonderful- the sun is out, the grass is green, the birds are singing and the whole
scene is just perfect… but you aren’t. Our mental states & anxieties have a way of crippling us no matter the weather,
and this is to say, it’s okay to feel sad on a beautiful day because you may feel great on a horrible day. The thing we
should always be grateful for is that we are here to enjoy another day.
On the day of recording, I decided to walk a far distance in Berlin to reach Thor’s studio and during this walk, I mused
about what a gloomy day it was, but I didn’t feel gloomy at all I felt great but in tandem, I remembered days when the
day was enjoyable, but I felt terrible. I imagined that people feel that way regularly and I guess this song is an ode to
those moments and those feelings.”

Fill This Room with Fire:
Fill This Room With Fire is the antithesis of ‘Beautiful Day’ in the sense that it captures the feeling of elation in a chaotic
space. The song started as a lazy afternoon sketch on an MPC during a warm summer in Cape Town, South Africa,
which then was recorded and expanded on for months afterwards. The end result is a deep dance track that builds and
fades and flows with many peaks and valleys, getting bigger with each cycle to a crescendo that feels large yet
restrained. The only lyrics of the song ‘Fill This Room With Fire’ were added towards the end of the production process
when the composition reached a point where the elements of the track worked together to ignite a dance floor, or in
other words, fill a room with fire.
