For some of us, new year cycles means new beginnings. We wrote our dreams, hopes, and held on to our faith as we fight to survive the year.  
 
Last year, we somehow learned that being a part of a healthy community is actually very important to our growth-- whether for our art or ourselves as a person.  
 
Watching each and every one of us learn and grow together became quite a wholesome experience. And as we coalesce, we carry each other with the same objective: We Are Gonna Make It. Let's survive this year!

As The Grove Coalesce

Our perspectives are shaped differently based on what we saw, heard and felt throughout many multi-sensory experiences in our life. But, sooner or later some lines, though sourced from many different backgrounds, will eventually converge. This convergence could be triggered even by the simplest of things. Turning what we once called, 'my memories' into a shareable network of topics which then became known as 'our memories'.

Maybe we can also call this phenomenon as 'Collective Memories'. A moment where all of us, as a collective, no matter how different our background is— can share our fondest memories together without boundaries, happily.

Collective Memories

Ataraxia: a state of serene calmness—the freedom caused by the absence of disturbance or trouble. Hope we will all be able to enter this state even just for a second.

Ataraxia [ἀταραξία]

Strolling around a park is a very rare activity we chose to engage. Laziness plays a small part on the reason why. After spending much of our time in a room working on our newest ‘Casement EP’(released on our Bandcamp page), inhaling some fresh air outside actually feels that refreshing. 

In the middle of snapping some pictures for our own stock images around that park, we witness a komorebi — a ray of light filtered by the tree. Well, it looks so beautiful, we decided to capture it with our phone as it reminded us to this sketch we had. 

Afterwards, as we remembered how nice of an experience we have had on that park, we decided to name this release as ‘Komorebi[木漏れ日]’. We hope this can also be your strolling-around-the-park-while-sunbathing soundtrack. Enjoy!

Komorebi[木漏れ日]

We both are familiar with train trips, whether it’s for vacation or some simple commuting. Though, it’s quite a rare occasion to enjoy a quiet private journey with no other people on our sides. When the train started to move, things almost slowly became silent. As each and everyone of us deals with our own stories and reasons, some of us might find a revelation about how enlightening a trip can become. 

With this track, we wanted to capture the feelings we felt during those moments. Moments where we are so lost within ourselves in a journey full with people we don’t know. A mysterious feeling that can either wrench a well-hidden emotion out to relief, or comforting the mind with imaginations about good things to come. 

Everyone might not felt the same thing. We can only hope that this track can help you feel the quiet contemplative joy of romanticizing your own journey.
