Here is the premiere single off my 2023 EP Crystal Vistas, premiering right here on Newgrounds! I'll be releasing a new song every few days :) This track features a healthy mix of hardware Gameboy and Mega Drive. Thanks to Trash80 and Little-scale for their chiptune contributions :)


Lyrics:

Cold reflection, butterflies

I remember why I hardly fight

Would it seem that this isn't the change for me?

Now I see I might be at home


Take me back to a time when I

Had the reasons to be on this line

Would it seem now I can't see a chance for me?

All I feel is that I am at home


Take us to a promised place

Tell me you can see my face I'll believe you

Everytime you say my name

Speak it to the rising sun

Echoing on

Take me to a bright new land

Somewhere I can feel the sand

Under my feet

Everytime you say my name

Speak it to the rising sun

Echoing on


If you give me some space and air

There might be things you don't want to hear

Would it seem that we're drifting

Unravelling

Can't you see I am not at home


Take us to a promised place

Tell me you can see my face

I'll believe you

Everytime you say my name

Speak it to the rising sun

Echoing on

Take me to a bright new land

Somewhere I can feel the sand

Under my feet

Everytime you say my name

Speak it to the rising sun

Echoing on


Featuring Eleanore Forte (Synthesizer V) on vocals


This EP is a collection of seperate songs written during the last few years, they all seemed to align when I put them together. Crystal Vistas is a fictional city inspired by a VHS movie a friend put on called Robot Wars. The album concept is a soundtrack to visit an abandoned metropolis.

I- truly- have never heard a more beautiful representation of the universe.

That you used GameBoy makes me want to cry with happiness. Thank you so much for creating this beautiful testimony.

I see you. πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ˜»
