I am sure that this music will become one of my favorites, because it reminds me as much as possible of the good old atmosphere of TheFatRat 2014-2017. Prelude is probably one of my most favorite tracks, and Ray Tracer is somewhat similar to it. Thank you, Chris, I'm crying with happiness, your music accompanied my childhood, and when I return to the channel, I still feel like the same child from the 4th grade of 2014. Thanks for everything, Criss.

[@rakeshkumarmahato5772]

Rise-Up dam song bro what a music lyrics everything is perfect. Make similar kind of music brother

[@bootishka]

@@rakeshkumarmahato5772 I asked my friends to promote this particular music, and I liked it because Ray Tracer sounds divine, like it was released in 2014 or 2015. I'm very happy with everything and I'm looking forward to the release.

[@FluffyCurry]

​@@rakeshkumarmahato5772 Damn how I love Rise Up, if it's anything like it it could end up being one of my favorite songs too

[@Dark3318]

At 3:51 I was very sad As always A banger from TFR

[@aydin5978]

Same situation haha -- this music was the vibe of anything online in like late elementary -- middle school. Too much nostalgia, but life's looking good now too.

Back to the musical roots for sure. LOOOOOOOVE IT!!! The bounce throughout, sailing on light tones and the horns. What a nice touch.

[@NaturallyDark]

Literally yesterday, I was lamenting to my friends that glitch hop, which used to be my favourite genre, was so dead that even TheFatRat doesn't produce it anymore. Now, a day after my birthday, you drop a glitch hop track so refined that I want to go digging a little deeper and seeing if this genre is still alive after all. This is absolutely an instant fave

[@PapadKumarOfficial]

This premiere is enough alone to set me back to the old nostalgic vibes of thefatrat. Can't wait for the entire song to be released!!!

Hearing elements from my childhood in a new song feels like a recollection and a celebration like some part of a story has been finished for something new. I’m so glad to hear this new version of nostalgia. And no matter the genre or nostalgia or not, I’m always glad to hear a TheFatRat song! I hope you’re having fun making these songs!

Chris, I'm giving you a standing ovation. You have exceeded all my expectations. At the end, I wanted to cry, the feeling is the same as from Unity, but I understand that this is a different song, but the feelings are the same. Chris, you are the best glitch hop artist, and this song is a masterpiece that will decorate my collection of your favorite songs and take first place on the podium. Thank you, Chris.

[@nothingok277]

After a while fatrat finally gonna make another masterpiece

[@wizardofOz33]

I swear this man is clever. The instructure of the song is just perfect it keeps evolving in a really tough way, the intro is so nostalgic then the chorus and post chorus kicks in smoothly leaving it joyful and sptacular energy. Then the sound switch up really intense i love everything about this, my fav part is when the bridge starts which keeps rising the note of the song it was really playful amazing work just as always perfect

[@krono.logical]

Eden: If only you knew, that I'm still here with you... From the bottom of my heart ❤

[@hanbao7025]

One random night i decided to wtched your oldest and most popular songs, Now listening to the newer songs you made, make me realise how much you have grown as a artist, but in a very good way. Always my GOAT. Love from Viet Nam.

[@saas-fp9hy]

You will always draw me back with your music, no matter what my taste is or however I change as a person, I would like to thank you for always being there, in the back of my mind.

[@LienzReve]

This is amazing. TheFatRat never goes old. I hear Never Be Alone, Jackpot, Arcadia, Monody, We'll Meet Again, and Hiding in the Blue. So many masterpieces mashed into this. And ThaTfatRat's daughter has the best voice ever.

[@Stempelsfriend]

I understood the story in Chapter 5. The boy who was with the girl went on a ship, and then specifically in Chapter 6, the girl started traveling on that ship alone. But I think that the boy entered that black hole and then found himself in another world. Specifically in Chapter 7, in front of that tree. A wonderful story. 💯

[@jaredlewis3001]

His soul did with the telescope but his body stayed behind

[@sniclops15]

There's a playlist with unlisted prologues for each song. I'll repost my comment here: The story follows Eo and Eden, two siblings gifted with two different talents. The boy, Eden, was gifted with creativity, planning. He was gifted with dreams. His playful spirit desired more than the lonely streets the two walked. The girl, Eo, was skilled with combat, but all she wanted was peace. The two sought out an old man who once captained a starship called "The Impossible." After years of repairing it, the ship was completed. Eden and Eo sailed away to worlds beyond, seeking adventure. But their journey would suddenly take a turn for the worse. The Kassian Telescope, located in the helm of the ship, did not use light like most conventional telescopes. Instead, it projected the user's soul into the cosmos. Eden's playful dreams for creativity were far too much for the telescope to hold him, and his soul was separated from his body. Eo was heartbroken, but still sensed her brother, though his body had stopped moving. Determined, she set out to bring his soul back to his body, even if it meant going into The Fallen Worlds. Meanwhile, Eden leaves a message at a tree on the world he arrived at. He tells Eo that he's alright, and that wherever she is, he knows she'll find this message. This is where Ray Tracer takes place.

[@mr.coolaid1004]

I'm so over the moon that you decided to turn this one into a full song, when you showed the short of this song it reminded me so much of the older TheFatRat and brought me back to such a warm place.

Man, I am so happy. I haven’t been this exited for a song since Escaping Gravity. I just want to say a massive, heartfelt thank you for your music Chris. Ever since discovered it in 2021, it has been my go-to music for every situation. None of my friends understand how I could be perfectly content listening to just your music, but your music is so good I wonder how anyone would be able to say they didn’t like it. Once again, thank you so much for all this music, it has really helped me through tough times before. Keep doing what you do man, it’s amazing!

Just heard the snippets and this is definitely gonna be a favorite💖If this song was a cake, it would be a marble cake baked out of the batter of Windfall and Jackpot, iced with Monody, topped with the cherry of Arcadia, and with extra sprinkles as a representation of your unique touches + storytelling talent. If it makes its way to a restaurant, it would win a Michelin Star Award.

Great to see TheFatRat returning to his glitch-hop roots. This and Electro-Light - Bring Me Back has been released in the same day, a very good day for glitch-hop, especially when this genre is very rare nowadays.

*For those who have not found the playlist yet, there are unlisted prologues to each chapter song in this series. This is the summary so far* The story follows Eo and Eden, two siblings gifted with two different talents. The boy, Eden, was gifted with creativity, planning. He was gifted with dreams. His playful spirit desired more than the lonely streets the two walked. The girl, Eo, was skilled with combat, but all she wanted was peace. The two sought out an old man who once captained a starship called "The Impossible." After years of repairing it, the ship was completed. Eden and Eo sailed away to worlds beyond, seeking adventure. But their journey would suddenly take a turn for the worse. The Kassian Telescope, located in the helm of the ship, did not use light like most conventional telescopes. Instead, it projected the user's soul into the cosmos. Eden's playful dreams for creativity were far too much for the telescope to hold him, and his soul was separated from his body. Eo was heartbroken, but still sensed her brother, though his body had stopped moving. Determined, she set out to bring his soul back to his body, even if it meant going into The Fallen Worlds.
