[@RusSlay0r]

the airy plucks hit different

[@KRS-Onesie]

It must've been 2015 and I was hopping on BART at Lake Merritt underground to transfer into SF. This song came on and when that second drop hit, I looked down the tunnel to the South and saw a father and his toddler son just jumping around in a circle holding hands in unison as the train approached. Sh*t was beautiful AF, and this song as the soundtrack made it even more so.

[@TJ_in_Tampa]

That's a dope memory. Beautifully said as well. ✌️❤️👽

I listen to this on Bart too

This is actually the FINAL track on 'Random Album Title' but I have to say, what a good end to an album. I fell asleep listening to the album in bed on my iPod, and I woke up to this. It's so cool to hear it when you're half concious!

[@Kincior]

Such an underrated track. I think it's my favorite one from this album after I Remember.

[@MetaLeir93]

Huge track, love it. This entire record turned a long bus ride during a cold & rainy day into a very special memory. Some of the vocal tracks like "I remember" are popular (and rightly so), but I really really love the more subdued, more atmospheric tracks like so there I was, some kind of blue, not exactly, etc

[@ghosts2896]

This made me laugh more than it should have

[@inimicalnature]

despite all the odds, there he is. given the motif of the track, those were some heavy odds.

[@PRESTOALOE]

God damn right. This is his best cut by far. Everything about this tune is great; from the bassline to the high frequency ping on the kicks. Genius

[@theremightbecoffee]

Thank you for your music, Joel

he doesnt suck, this track is beautifully created. I hate it that people say music "sucks" because of the genre. get your mind right before you make incrediably biased and idiotical statements like that. and its not an opinion if you going out of your way to mask something great with hate. that is called disresppect.

[@AGKaiju]

Here we are, roughly 14 years later... and the drop at 3:58 still needs a warp drive background at a show, fading to black and back in after the main beat comes back in at 4:30.

[@erenYeager4eva]

I'll tell you the meaning of this music: So there I was, before it fell apart So there I was, before I understood what was real and that I've been drinking the sweet wine of illusion And that sometimes it's better to bask on the lap of illusion than face the harsh damn reality There I was at my zenith, happiest, looking down from the peak. Knowing it'll last for sometimes... Knowing the one I love or hold dear will betray me. So there I was before I jumped, before I let go of myself to lessen the burden and pain Save me someone... There once I was... When did I lose it all?

[@erenYeager4eva]

This is so much better than all bullshit (2014> house, edm, actually everything that mainstream hipsters listen to... it's generalising tho ^^) that's produced nowadays. For example tiesto... Tiesto made really great real trance songs, but now he's working together with that lil' ass martin garrix. Peeps like him are ruining the scene.

240p on a deadmau5 song? That is just sin. He's known for his crisp sounds.
