i began writing this song in august of 2024. using julie's kit, basement's covet and slow pulp's cramps, as it predominantly features my electric guitar and some warm, earthy distortion. its style fits with some parts of my other works (such as terrible!), but functions as a more mature evolution effort with a little extra time to refine my sound, vocally and instrumentally.
spontaneously entering production in only a few days, prompted by an impending assessment deadline, supa glue is a hybrid electronic composition, introducing several songwriting techniques typical of pop music, mixed with a bit of tame impala and declan mckenna, with a final coat of "nopey snoot" paint. it is eclectic, dynamic and i have loved making it. if crying out loud was me fearfully dipping my toes into this unfamiliar world of production, supa glue is me doing a cannonball into it and having fun along the way.

end of the show is a song charlotte wrote for assessment where i worked to put visuals to it. we hope to rerecord and produce this song as it was so catchy and believe it deserves more than being forgotten after the assessment is over. it is loosely inspired by songs such as Anyone Else But You by the Moldy Peaches and I Bet on Losing Dogs by Mitski, but is delivered more like a Lizzy McAlpine song. despite the musical references, it still feels authentically our own. watch the video of the live performance here.
one of my older works that has been in hibernation for a while. this piece throws you into a spooky, otherworldly soundscape, before pulling you into an enthralling soft rock realm, leading you to an orchestral performance where all the elements finally culminate in an epic way. pulling from all sorts of media, from the play Macbeth to folk-horror stories to disguise just another song about heartbreak. the devil and the fool has been fermenting for a while, but when it is ready, it will deliver.
(so i'll end up covering them instead)
