she sinks below the surface of the abyss like a lantern hung beneath the water, its luminescence glowing in the swirling currents. she reaches towards the earth where her soul continues to twist and drift in a sea of embers. here below in heaven’s shadow she waits. patiently the pain comes. both numb and formless, intimate and vague. a prisoner to her own refrain, endlessly locked in somber song; a dulcet slumber in haunting hollows. and all the while the winds of time bellow chaotically around her. “will i ever be cared for or even noticed?” she wonders. “i feel as if my existence is slowly drifting off, like shattering crystals of snow raising one by one from a bed of fog. like smoke emanating from an ancient pyre far below. praise sweet saint of ember who shatters the night sky like a fine film of ice, melting its tempting curls with wreathes of cold blue flame. praise fair snow-cloaked princess in her lustrous sea of black and gold, born anew each night into a perpetual obsidian dark. is there any space left for an existence such as mine? is there an onyx demon who can plunge to my depths, a wild saint who can navigate this abyss? i can still feel the suns suffusion, it lingers in my dreams… but it is fleeting. my memories of those feral overflowing gardens above are sifted finer and finer as the days pass. just ghosts in the sun’s haze, drifting backwards through the light. a crazed sanctuary woven breathlessly from fragments of the past. a past that down here, motionless to those above, loses all meaning. just a gnarled shadow. twisted umbra… goddess of the hollow.”

I'm noticing City Girl is collaborating a lot more with Tiffi with each album and adding a lot more vocals for songs, not that I'm complaining of course, Tiffi and City Girl are an absolute dream team. Also love the seamless mixing of more melancholy lo-fi moments with the more aggressive and lively synth through the songs. Some pretty top-tier stuff

I know I just finished listening to this but I must admit that this album really is the showstopper. The quality of City Girl's production on these two albums is monumentally outstanding. But wow...this album in particular is truly incredible. City Girl, it's been a long time since I've felt genuine euphoria. But you have provided it in spades all over this record. I think you have achieved a perfect balance with your artistry. On one hand you can be very minimal, subdued and beautifully subtle. But on this you've melded that side of your style into this vast, spacious, and even experimental vision that blossoms to create these perfectly sequenced intergalactic grooves that are so delicately bathed in such a lush vibrant atmosphere. These songs are gentle but they are simultaneously complex and electrifying. I also very much appreciate the meticulous detail you provide with all the instrumental layering. It all swells into this mesmerizing eclipse of peak excellence in the genre of beat-making. Much Love

I love how this album continues that deep, hyper space, cosmic synthwave energy that city girl explored in Chroma velocity while experimenting with more somber and melancholy inducing tones and chords from all her other albums, and Tiffi sounds better than ever! This feels and sounds like the continuation of the story set in Chroma velocity. Honestly this album made me feel like I was walking around in the world of Hyper Light Drifter, if anybody knows what that is.

So strange how time flows, elegant and honest, moments pass through us like sand and we go from one huge moment to another whilst we are barely aware of it. I remember when this album came out, and I carry strong memories with it. I hear the first melodies of this track and instantly its three years prior and I'm on my bed, with my cat, playing hollow knight and the room is neither too warm nor too cold and it carries the scent of honey suckle from outside and that scent wafts in. In that moment I am at peace. I truly do love this album.

4/13/2020 - 9:02 am I'm so excited about this. this has been the one thing that's been keeping me afloat during this sea of stormy, unclear waters. City girl's new albums. it's the thing keeping me sane, the hope that's keeping me afloat while my thoughts try to drag me down and drown me. It propels me during the hardest moments. Tomorrow, when this comes out, I'm going to listen to it while doing my homework and feel so at peace, so glad that I've put up with hell to listen to this. I'm currently listening to City Girl's music right now, all her full albums on shuffle. and I feel so so happy right now. It reminds me of why I listened to your music in the first place, It reminds me of nostalgic and better times. long car drives to far away, mystical places and vacations while listening to your music through headphones and an outdated iPod. plane rides to Mexico, at night, listening to this music while everyone else was asleep. late-night study sessions at 3am, blinking the sleep out of my eyes as your melodies propel me to continue to live. thank you, city girl.
