Fun fact: This was a sort of demo/idea for a possible imagining of The Ancient & Arcane II (wouldn't be called that!). The other song I was tying into this new album was "Sacred Woods" which was released through Monstercat. The project ultimately fell through, and was never completed. This happens all the time to artists! Sometimes things really click, other times, it just doesn't happen.
Much love, V.

[@varienofficial]

Up next (for real this time) is Claws! I'm really excited for it's release - it will be heard all over the world. Watch what we do next. Also, HUGE announcement next week - the biggest thing to happen in my career! Check my socials for more info. Excited. Let's keep it up. Love, V

[@merpaderp.___.4648]

Varien now literally everyone is waiting anxiously for this announcement! Can't wait

[@cavemann_]

Good for you, I will wait patiently.

[@mod3no]

Really happy for you man! Awesome song btw

[@anteros__]

I'm so glad dude! I cannot wait for waht you've got ahead of you!!!!!

[@PuccioMusic]

Man, your "spiritual" style is the one I love the most. This is amazing!

[@varienofficial]

Thanks man. Very much!

[@Dubstone]

I can't believe the fools over at Monstercat denied this when you first sent it... Absolutely amazing work, i'm beyond glad to see you back on track with so much good stuff already coming out!

[@varienofficial]

It's okay. No one can stop me. :) Thanks for the support man!

[@Saciachrid]

So they did. It's proven. Monstercat are a bunch of fools.

[@m_riatik]

smfh monstercrab :(

[@Dubstone]

SparkyPrick yet they sign total abysmal crap like Champion Sound or any Conro song, while artists like Soulero, who almost killed himself last year, are kept ignored and their work refused. Sometimes their inadequacy amazes me, especially Going Quantum's.

[@SirKakalaCh]

dude monstercat is dead for at least 2 years when they started with the crap artists... no surprises here, but I gotta give it to them for introducing me to varien :D, many years ago...

[@jamescheeks6518]

This really is a work of art, every little individual detail just give me such a great feeling. Its absolutely horrendous Monstercat rejected this, borderline pathetic when you compare it to some of the awful stuff they have given the greenlight. Amazes me. But not as much as this track does, incredible, perfect relaxation.

[@W4LT3Rego]

My exact thoughts, James! :)

[@AshMooingmunky]

I SEE YOU EVERYWHERE!

[@ShauriePvs]

Even Monstercat started showing some politics now it seems!!

[@the_accidental_poet]

...somehow...I knew I'd find a Mr. Cheeks comment on this one.

[@jamescheeks6518]

*the_accidental_poet* of course saint Poet, only in the best places ;) and ayy fancy seeing you here. 😘

[@isshinkurosaki718]

i like to tie this song at the end of the song with miyoki called Kamisama. Makes the song longer and awsome.

[@varienofficial]

That's a great idea - same key too!!

[@isshinkurosaki718]

well there goes an idea for you.

[@filipdzero8739]

Yes!!! Your chill stuff is amazing! Thanks, Nick! :)

[@varienofficial]

Thank you brother!

[@shivtekoriginal]

Dude your chill stuff is so nice to just lie back with a spliff and vibe to. Genuinely amazed at how you've somehow mastered such a massive range of genres, I really respect you for that.

[@xerus7425]

Masterpieces everywhere :) listened quite a bit to The Glitch Mob recently, and that pulsating base in the interlude at 1:18 totally reminded me of them

[@robott5177]

One of my favorite styles you do, keep it up! Would love to see a breakdown of this if you plan to do any production related vlogs soon

[@Bloop24]

Great work, great for a chill mix playlist!

[@EDCHII]

Simplemente hermosa, como siempre Varien, cada tema que saca nunca decepciona!

[@avokado1386]

anybody have any idea if this could be classified under any subgenre of the chillout genre? Like ambient vapor , if that even exists(as if vaporwave wasn't already super chill)? Don't mean to spoil anybody s enjoyment of this by looking too much into the tiny , petty things too much, such as genres, instead of looking at the bigger picture and truly listening to this song, which I did; I love the atmosphere , warmth , friendliness and the welcoming sentiment of this track; Nick never stops fascinating, wish the best for him! :)

[@matias-ni4ed]

is a combination of withcraft , deep dusbtep, mitology, folk, glitch hop, liquid dnb and varien vibes.

[@vocaloidfairy2619]

This hugged my soul💙💙✨

[@MushroomManToad]

Having just walked a quarter-mile in a snowstorm before listening, I can confirm, this is chill. And great as always, Varien! No shortage of phenomenal from this place!

[@sheatafoya4746]

Very excited for this, the ancient and arcane was my favorite album of yours :)

[@vladimirputinytuim5521]

Never got this in my sub box. good thing I was in the mood for some varien 😆

[@m_riatik]

i guess you can say, this is the calm before the storm (of bangers)

[@mostrino]

Oh snap a great track

[@loudar]

this is so calming

[@buckwheatredcorn6827]

I am so glad to see that you’re back in the swing of things. Keep it up Varien :D

[@Mr_Bedlam215]

Stoked to see you back at it. Waiting on the full project. And more of course.

[@LynKoyo]

I love this in every single way possible! It's really calming and remind me a lot of The Ancient & Arcane, which is one of my favorite albums ~ Can't wait for more stuff like this, love it! You're the best, Varien ♥️

[@Slendyproject]

Damn this is great. Been following you for quite a while now, but your music is so diverse and creative, i cant get enough of it! Excited for whats to come!

[@drewgazmik1618]

*ALWAYS SO INTERESTING!*

[@noneyabidnes4726]

In my personal opinion, the illest of the chillest tracks in the entire discography.

[@anor_wombo]

Super dope track, Varien. The kick and those synths are absolutely gorgeous

[@lolikeeper4814]

There's bangers in store? Can't wait! and good to see you back in action Varien :-)

[@scrin00]

Amazing work! I love the atmosphere of it. Keep up the great work!

[@mr.noobody4126]

[@SCDB94]

[@KDNG105]

Foxhound ? You're that ninja

[@AreanaAkumaken]

Not my favorite song you've released, but definitely still joining my regular chill playlist for studying/writing. Love your work Varien! ^_^

[@immortalcake5972]

Your chill music is sooo good

[@mateuszskopp9968]

Kinda reminds me of Mirai Sekai, again falling in love with this music

[@IBeJadenMan]

Perfect track man. You can really hear the excellence in this one!

[@eaudescentist9065]

This is so beautiful. Good job.

[@anteros__]

Atmospheric! Your work is so incredible dude! Keep it up!

[@KisieloweMaslo]

I love this melody! Sounds very catchy :3

[@ashentharusha9708]

The panning percs really cleaned my ears!

[@budgie9470]

I really needed this, Thank you! Made my day. :)

[@thrillerfox-_-6809]

gorgeous

[@andrewm4798]

Foxes and Hounds approve this message

[@pounc3r782]

first part reminds me of ghost spores with a mirai sekai-like melody

[@waleedbinalim]

The Ancient & Arcane II Needs to exist Varien Sensei !!!

[@r-r9996]

Good song=3

[@phonicengine]

Chill!!

[@Just_RJ]

Good tune for me to reminisce to. Flows well.

[@XBassDropperX]

Ive noticed many artists have the beats similar to their style, but every single one of your songs are unique and produced very well

[@Damian_escobar_]

♥

[@BranTurn362]

This is so good. Also loving deadpixel's art for it!

[@varienofficial]

She's the best, and my go-to artist for this year!

[@cheerfulfatalist]

I. TOTALLY. LOVE. IT.

[@w1ck3dz0d1ac]

City in the sky got my attention. This one got my sub.

[@leopantheon2501]

Music for your soul.

[@Sheogoraths-cheese]

so relaxing. Great stuff man.

[@BossyArio]

(I was ready for another April Fools, but this is really nice

[@thestingraythatkilledsteve9149]

Your best song to-date not even exaggerating

[@Amit.Mahyavanshi]

So soothing..!

[@segutraverso9673]

Is so beautiful ❤💙❤💛💜 Varíen, You are the best

[@amiteshkumar312]

Varien Squad 😈

[@johanetsondragon]

So nice, so smooth *_*

[@LadyofAnthrazil]

This is so beautiful!

[@f4u_corsair173]

Love this vibes

[@ThereYaGoRookie]

You sir.. take me back to the days of Enigma and Aphex. You make the electronic elders proud. ^_^

[@varienofficial]

Enigma is the reason Ancient & Arcane exists... and as far as Aphex, if you've seen my tattoos you know I have an Aphex Twin tat! Got it when I was 17. ;)

[@Errant_Gaming]

What happened to this song on Soundcloud? I can't find it anymore.

[@frozenspace1930]

Amazing @_@

[@djakaze]

Just Wow.

[@insanehedge]

I really love this music since it lanched in 2018

[@henryb-z3775]

This is pretty incredible

[@CrashBandicootFan100]

Why ain't there a loop button on my phone for this...

[@doomiesama4741]

Shpongle vibes

[@heysup8889]

Beautiful ! :)

[@francescocernecca3176]

Delicious ❤️

[@joshfield]

so glad you're back

[@oddefy]

very refreshing 10/10

[@Hilytios]

Damn...

[@CarVen111]

Красота.

[@chillpanic]

Oh my god. I'm too sensitive to asmr to handle this, this is amazing

[@varienofficial]

ASMR absolutely influenced The Ancient & Arcane as well as this track. I really like subtle textures, a lot. :)

[@legrandliseurtri7495]

Huh. I'd say I'm sensitive to asmr too usually, but this song doesn't have this effect on me. Actually, I can't think of a single song that ever had this for me.

[@jachichansk3175]

I like it!

[@komugi7136]

最高

[@metalelch6666]

This song is great i loved👍

[@antonfeirer3408]

Oh Wait! Is this in a game?! Dam I can't rest until I know why this sounds so familiar :D Instafav, Nick you're amazing! Muchos luvos!

[@martinfernandez4467]

yeewah!!

[@maximusdarck0878]

I miss old varíen so much

[@telephonontv]

Idk, if you felt like going back to(Monstercat), but I be alright, just asking if you're ever have plans an record release....considering your post you wrote down on claws last year, though you did a collab on spinin' records(shame its overlook at the time). On another note, any plans for My Prayers pt2 anytime in the future?

[@GLu-tb1pb]

good

[@IanTho1]

LOVE YOU

[@antonfeirer3408]

This sounds very familiar, has there been a demo somewhere sometime? I could swear I heard the intro and the part at 2:00 before, I even had earworms of it :D Anyway I'm so glad I finally know where they came from, thanks for the nice song!

[@knurspgaming1681]

beautyfull... just...amazing... love it :) like always uh...just random question: ya already kow what ya gona do on 100k?

[@vvalterivarveracastroverac8669]
