Disco Elysium made me wanna create. Create something that can stay with people. Made them remember characters and message of said creation. I don't even care if it makes me a lot of money, or if it becomes "one of the best". I just wanna make something that moves others and make them think, even if just for a bit. Connect with them. But I don't know if I have the skill to make it. I've been writing a little for years, but I can never finish something, or I don't know if it will ever have the power to move others, but at the same time, just like message of Disco Elysium... I wanna have hope. I wanna create art. If not today, not in a year, then maybe one day. I still have my whole life ahead of me, so who knows.
Does it matter if people see it or like it or are moved by it? Create for yourself, express yourself. Other people being moved by it is a by product,. Great if that happens. If not, you have told your story and emotions, which is the reason for some of us to exist.

Regardless of how utterly insane this game can be at times, we all identify with Harry. It’s a truly remarkable achievement in storytelling and one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had in the last 25 years. Thanks for putting this together. I’m now going to whirl round my living room, in my rags.
I felt depressed when this game ended. Because I was scared I would never play anything like it again. And then I heard about the sequel, and I was relieved. And then I heard more about the sequel... and back to the post-game depression it was.
Yep. "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die." ~Hunter S. Thompson
CONCEPTUALIZATION: There are many alternatives. Spiritual successors. It doesn't even have to be a video game. VOLITION: Or you can make your own Disco Elysium 2. INLAND EMPIRE: Or you can wait until someone else makes it for you. But you are risking that it will not be satisfying to you.
I know what you mean, but it's as you said it. It's a joy and a privilege that Disco Elysium exists to begin with and we got to play it - I've been gaming since the 90s and many, many games have struck me to the core, left an imprint of being high art, and Disco Elysium is still up there as one of the greatest of all time. The fiasco with the IP rights and the sequel were part of the devil's bargain of what it took to get this game funded and published. But whatever happens next, it was worth it. It will always have been worth it.
I absolutely feel the same! And I can tell you that Red Dead 2, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Witcher 3 and Fallout: New Vegas (+ all DLCs) came close. Try them if you haven't already.

Best night theme ever. Seriously. If you play this while walking through your hometown late at night, you will suddenly feel like everything is as it should be. Such is the beauty of this track.
This is exactly what happens to Martinaise for me. After all the side quests, you start realizing everything is alright, as if it had become home/family/whatever term is used for a place where you are at peace.
4 weeks ago a close friend of mine got passed away. i remember the night after he died. i was sitting and smoking at the balcony and thinking about all the good memories with him and listening to this track. (while crying.) its been 26 days but its still unbelieveable. 16.02.2002 - 01.02.2023 rip mami.
I always love to read the comments from all of you people all over the world, when listening to such beautiful soundtracks. Comment sections like this are just full of kindness and beautiful stories. A nice change to other places on the internet, where people often just complain, insult and hate for no reason. Thank you so much for that, folks!
I feel so sorry about older people who dislike games just because they think its not serious or smth. The biggest emotional roller coasters and most beautyfull stories i have ever expirienced came from games. Disco elysium surely one of them. True peace of art.
No matter what happened with ZAUM, and the inevitable shitshow of a sequel to this by not the core that made it.. _At least we had this. Once._ *It's something out of time; out of place. A rare breed. Something archetypically associated with 90s greats. And it came, and has gone. But it left tracks deep on everyone and everything in its path. It happened. And that's beautiful enough for me.*
@@TheMatt141 it's insanely complicated, but basically power struggle from ZAUM higher ups removing the core 4 people that made DE possible, and took the IP out from them. You should read more about it; it's ongoing still. ZAUM as it was that made Disco Elysium is effectively dead now.
I work at my university's library and love putting this on when I'm working late nights. It's such a calming track that feels like the city of Revachol is winding down for the evening, yet nonetheless burns bright into the night, as simmering as its flame may be. Volition's quote about Revachol being a place to be fits it like a glove; this is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive.
The atmosphere of a house as a child. Second floor, a small room with two huge windows. All lit up. Outside the window, the ground is frozen, the dead thick grass, a meter high in yellowish gray hues. There is no need to go anywhere, there is an old laptop on the table, on which Windows 10 is installed. And I, a little boy, shiver with anticipation - my first computer. My games, it buzzes so cool... Such an atmosphere. The times when I was going through Dishonored. And a bit of a headache. I like that)))
This puts me in the same mood as the opening piano piece of Its Raining Somewhere Else from Undertale. Like you're driving at night through a city, so late you're the only car out there. Its raining, not hard enough to worry you. The orange streetlights reflect off the puddles and wet asphalt, while the stark white light of gas stations break the patterns. You'd get to your hotel faster if you stayed on the interstate but you like driving through cities.
For once, Harry feels a sense of peace around Kim as he watches him blow smoke over the balcony railing. Martinaise and its people seem to slumber by midnight, as the streets are mostly empty and the chilly air causes Harry's breath to be visible against the stark black sky above him. With everything going on in the area, the gentle quiet and crisp night air calms the anxieties that have been bubbling in Harry's stomach since he woke up in an amnestic nightmare, hungover from a night he can't remember. What he's managed to do with his time in Martinaise so far is nothing less of a miracle, considering the circumstances. Harry has a feeling he isn't even close to solving the suspected murder, but given his current situation, he's willing to put that thought to the side for now. Harry has noticed that Kim routinely has a cigarette on the balcony of the Whirling-In-Rags each night before he settles into his room to sleep. While on his way to his own room, Harry has caught many glances of him out the second-floor window, strangely yearning to join the lieutenant outside. Harry would never ask, though, as Kim would most certainly want his privacy. That didn’t seem to be the case tonight. Kim, for the first time, invited Harry for a smoke. Unprovoked. And Harry couldn’t refuse. “You’re a fascinating detective,” Kim says, breaking the silence between them. “…fascinating?” Harry has no idea what that means. “Yes, fascinating.” The two men stare at each other with frowns plastered on their faces, but Harry’s is a bit more exaggerated. Kim is not the kind of man to openly express emotion, but Harry catches him rolling his eyes, just a bit. He then brings the cigarette in his hand to his mouth, inhales, and blows smoke over the balcony once more. Kim, as always, seems to understand that Harry’s confusion is genuine. “I find you abrasive, irresponsible, and reckless. You make terrible decisions, ones that often put yourself and those around you in danger, and you are very easily distracted by irrelevant matters." He says it matter-of-factly. He’s being honest. Something heavy and ridden with anxiety forms in the pit of Harry’s stomach. He normally isn’t too affected by the words of others, but from Kim, it’s different… for some reason. Harry is about to retort with something, but Kim clears his throat and gives Harry a look that is significantly gentler than any of the looks he’s ever gotten from Kim. “However,” Kim begins, “your skills as a cop have impressed me. You use methods I wouldn’t imagine using, and they work. You’ve taught me many techniques in our short time together and I can’t imagine I would be any more productive on this case with any other cop. All of these things make you fascinating to me.” …and just like that, Harry’s mouth clicks closed, and that heavy feeling in his stomach is suddenly lighter. “Thanks,” Harry says, as that’s all he can muster. The remaining 15 minutes fly by as Harry asks a number of questions about the district of Martinaise and Kim’s personal life, and Kim seems to answer the questions with more openness than before. Kim offers Harry his cigarette, and they smoke it until it becomes dust on the balcony floor. Any traces of people on the streets of Martinaise are gone by now, and it leaves Harry feeling like he and Kim are the only two people in the city. It’s… a welcome feeling. For the first time, Harry catches himself thinking that he could get used to this.
Люди тут постепенно расстроились, что второй части не будет. Но если быть честным - а нужна ли она ? Этот мир уникален, его невозможно коммерциализировать и нельзя, что главное. Наслаждаемся моментом, слушаем невероятную музыку и, самое обязательное, знаем, что скоро появятся и другие проекты, не менее уникальные, а опыт от их прохождения будет еще лучше, музыка еще чувствительнее и ближе, персонажи еще душевнее. Что-то великолепное приближается...
Living in liverpool city center looking out the window on a "quiet night", seeing the glow of the street lights between the buildings, watching the odd seagull or two float about and Radio City tower lit up against the skyline. Big feels with this tune :).
I just want to thank all of the commenters here I listen to this every night before bed and I just can never resist taking a look at them. It's like a real life morale heal!
Good lord. I wouldn't think a piece that is as simple as this can be so emphatically and emotionally affecting. It bears the melancholia that the entire game permeates. But also with a slight hopeful feel towards the climax of the piece. Perhaps a musical way of describing the importance of volition in such a dim and decrepit world as Revachol.
Makes me feel like the end of long house party, everyone has left and you are all alone in chaos and the wreckage. Just your thoughts and that somber feeling of loss.
Thank you so much for uploading. This song takes me to a hard-to-describe place: a combination of light sorrow, hopeness and nostalgia.. with a hint of happiness, but a sort of past obtained happiness -unobtainable now, but you can still get a glimpse of it.
Always after a long or bad day, my boyfriend and I lie down in the dark and listen to this song. Even in the greatest chaos, it is possible to find peace and safety. Sometimes, life is nice to live.
Lmao you’re a saint for this. The music in the game is phenomenal. Sad I’ve waited until literally last week to finally try the game, but it’s been well worth the wait. I’m loving the hell out of it so far
My wife newrly died two winters ago. At the end of every sleepless day when I went home to get cooked off whatever I had, the CD mix on repeat had this song and it always played on my way home. I was awake for 60+ hours straight off nothing but animal fear, drugs and the immense depression of the current situation. She had lost everyone and everything already. Her entire family. Orphan at 21. Cancer, suicide, cancer. And we been together for almost 10 years at that point. Were gonna get married in May of '22. But under the ever wavering and kaleidoscopic effects of sleep deprivation, the traffic lights took on a hypnotic quality guiding me back to a different location but the same situation. Will my wife ever be the same--well at the time my girlfriend--but they expected she would need months of therapy to maybe ever be the same. Couldn't talk. Couldn't walk. Awake. Unresponsive. The only times were when I'd sit down by her side and tell her where I was going--for the faintest moment she'd have this.. recognition. She'd run her hands in my beard. She couldnt speak. Nothing else but the familiarity and recognition of who, or what kind of animal I was. After 4½ days of nothing and no change she woke up at 45 til midnight while I read to her Generation Kill. Completely fine, by their dramatic and fear mongering expectations. "Could you pass me my phone?" was what she said upon waking up. I burst into tears and called the nurse into the room: "She's awake, she's awake, get in here _now!"_ I wish I could explain the degree and pain, the visceral nature this track brings all that back; tears more than welling and working their way to choking me. _But I'm just glad to not be back there anymore._
I've gotten to a very confuse and messy place in life, i don't really know what I should really do or how i should do it, but this piece right here, this reminds me that all messes can be sorted out. I love Harry because of that, in the game he's also dealing with a lot of shit, but eventually he's able to start piecing his life together, making peaces with the stuff that have gone bad and cherishing the good things that happen to him. I'm hopeful that I'll get there, sooner or later. Thanks for making this, my dude.
@@whowaifu5475 Sometimes we need to dig just a little deeper, to really hit rock bottom in order to better come back up. Hope you're doing alright. Much love.
Shit hits different now that we know DE 2 will probably never exist - or at least will only exist as a compromised version without the key players who brought us the first.
reminds me of the hilarious inland empire playthrough i started. never expected that much impact from fun and goofy to...what the actual fuck...that hurts...deep... brilliant game. brilliant soundtrack. thanks.
I really want to replay Elysium, especially with the new voice acting, but I want to get far enough away from my first playthrough to really enjoy it again. I think I'm close though!
If you dig this, you should check out the songs Jack DeQuidt makes for Friends at the Table. (he's on bandcamp) They're great, and many of them have this vibe.
While I couldn't finish this game even on 5 seperate attempts, I kept coming back to this track. It captures a feeling I've longed since little, but was never able to vision on my own.
I'm curious. What did you struggle with? I managed to finish it on my second attempt. If its losing health or morale, make sure you have at least to bars of both and keep a large supply of health and morale bossters. It's possible to use them mid-conversation so you don't die. As for running out of options for how to proceed. Just do the side-quests as they quite often glean new information for the case as well a xp so you can level up and retry skill-checks.
@@joshuabruce9599 the part where you go to southern shores, have to help the junkies make meth and the etymologist, it’s just too boring for me to grind through while stuck on main quests
@@hanfei6871 that's so cool! I've played through the game 3 times from start to finish now and I've never had them ask me for purified water before. In fact, took me a while to find out they were even going to set up a drug lab in the first place!
"Doomed to wake up at 7:30 AM everyday just because a holy wow you made 16 years ago, with me. I am at your side." Harry's life is so troubled that he not remembering it may have actually eased it down at least in routine. I can relate to that but not remembering anything is horrible. What an experience this game was.
Honestly, this games ability to invoke emotions and various reflections, is beyond amazing. Thanks to the artist who created this music, for managing to ecapsulate every single moment in the game so perfectly with your music
I'll see what I can do, songs like that can be tricky since it doesn't end cleanly and I'd have to do my best to make it match up. This song in particular was very easy in comparison, hence why I went for it. No promises on Precinct 41 Major Crimes Unit since I'd rather not upload a bad-quality loop, but I'll try!
I just made this one since I haven't seen anyone else make an extended version of this song. If there are any songs you want extended that no one else has done, send a reply and I'll see what I can do! No promises but I'll give it a try.
This is the official song title given by the band; you can confirm this in the link I provided in the video's description. All I did was extend that exact song to 2 hours.
CONCEPTUALISATION: Although it is always 12am when this song plays, it will always be 12pm whenever you hear it. 12pm is not merely the time, but a state of being. In a previous life 12pm would have been referred to as "noon", the peak of the day and therefore the peak of life. But now it is just "12pm". 12pm is that space you enter so rarely these days, that quiet place where you have time to stop and think about things. The world slows down and you see yourself from above, one more speck in a sea of specks. It all feels so sad sometimes, so pointless, but you must push on just a little further. Something beautiful is about to happen, and we are all relying on you to get us there.
@@DeoMachina LOGIC: the band named this 12pm because they were not thinking, and PM to them meant “night” and they meant night vibes. Similar to when someone says “it was 12 o’clock at night” and do not mean noon.
maybe if harry can figure it out, i can too

The remaining 15 minutes fly by as Harry asks a number of questions about the district of Martinaise and Kim’s personal life, and Kim seems to answer the questions with more openness than before. Kim offers Harry his cigarette, and they smoke it until it becomes dust on the balcony floor. Any traces of people on the streets of Martinaise are gone by now, and it leaves Harry feeling like he and Kim are the only two people in the city. It’s… a welcome feeling.
For the first time, Harry catches himself thinking that he could get used to this.
Люди тут постепенно расстроились, что второй части не будет. Но если быть честным - а нужна ли она ? Этот мир уникален, его невозможно коммерциализировать и нельзя, что главное. Наслаждаемся моментом, слушаем невероятную музыку и, самое обязательное, знаем, что скоро появятся и другие проекты, не менее уникальные, а опыт от их прохождения будет еще лучше, музыка еще чувствительнее и ближе, персонажи еще душевнее. Что-то великолепное приближается...
I do not wish for a sequel.
I am glad it happened at all.
As my grandmother used to say: “All good things come to an end, otherwise it becomes commonplace.”
Living in liverpool city center looking out the window on a "quiet night", seeing the glow of the street lights between the buildings, watching the odd seagull or two float about and Radio City tower lit up against the skyline. Big feels with this tune :).
I just want to thank all of the commenters here
I listen to this every night before bed and I just can never resist taking a look at them. It's like a real life morale heal!
+1 morale
Enjoy, fellow Revacholier
RIP Disco Elysium.
Smells like a peach bubblegum..

Good lord. I wouldn't think a piece that is as simple as this can be so emphatically and emotionally affecting. It bears the melancholia that the entire game permeates. But also with a slight hopeful feel towards the climax of the piece. Perhaps a musical way of describing the importance of volition in such a dim and decrepit world as Revachol.
What's the best novel you've read in the last decade? Disco Elysium.
Makes me feel like the end of long house party, everyone has left and you are all alone in chaos and the wreckage. Just your thoughts and that somber feeling of loss.
This game is unforgettable.
Listening to this while watching the full moon on the balcony. Such a beautiful night.
The first death is in the heart, Harry.
Something beautiful is going to happen.
Going through a break up, this is literally my best way to cope lmao
GODSPEED MY MAN
@@vlader4273 Thank you my man. We’ll all escape Disco Inferno and meet in Disco Elysium, eventually.
Same thing here, my guy. Hope it gets better for both of us
you should avoid the second dream like the fucking plague then
@@cchristianjeremy Hope it got better for you man. Godspeed to you brother
Thank you so much for uploading.
This song takes me to a hard-to-describe place: a combination of light sorrow, hopeness and nostalgia.. with a hint of happiness, but a sort of past obtained happiness -unobtainable now, but you can still get a glimpse of it.
Her name might not be Dora, but every man has his own Dolores Dei.
Always after a long or bad day, my boyfriend and I lie down in the dark and listen to this song. Even in the greatest chaos, it is possible to find peace and safety. Sometimes, life is nice to live.
Lmao you’re a saint for this. The music in the game is phenomenal. Sad I’ve waited until literally last week to finally try the game, but it’s been well worth the wait. I’m loving the hell out of it so far
Deserted streets and neural networks lead,
me home to you, you home to me...
My wife newrly died two winters ago. At the end of every sleepless day when I went home to get cooked off whatever I had, the CD mix on repeat had this song and it always played on my way home. I was awake for 60+ hours straight off nothing but animal fear, drugs and the immense depression of the current situation. She had lost everyone and everything already. Her entire family.
Orphan at 21. Cancer, suicide, cancer. And we been together for almost 10 years at that point.
Were gonna get married in May of '22.
But under the ever wavering and kaleidoscopic effects of sleep deprivation, the traffic lights took on a hypnotic quality guiding me back to a different location but the same situation.
Will my wife ever be the same--well at the time my girlfriend--but they expected she would need months of therapy to maybe ever be the same.
Couldn't talk. Couldn't walk. Awake. Unresponsive.
The only times were when I'd sit down by her side and tell her where I was going--for the faintest moment she'd have this.. recognition. She'd run her hands in my beard.
She couldnt speak. Nothing else but the familiarity and recognition of who, or what kind of animal I was.
After 4½ days of nothing and no change she woke up at 45 til midnight while I read to her Generation Kill. Completely fine, by their dramatic and fear mongering expectations.
"Could you pass me my phone?" was what she said upon waking up.
I burst into tears and called the nurse into the room: "She's awake, she's awake, get in here _now!"_
I wish I could explain the degree and pain, the visceral nature this track brings all that back; tears more than welling and working their way to choking me.
_But I'm just glad to not be back there anymore._
One of my favourite pieces of Game soundtrack ever...
I've gotten to a very confuse and messy place in life, i don't really know what I should really do or how i should do it, but this piece right here, this reminds me that all messes can be sorted out. I love Harry because of that, in the game he's also dealing with a lot of shit, but eventually he's able to start piecing his life together, making peaces with the stuff that have gone bad and cherishing the good things that happen to him. I'm hopeful that I'll get there, sooner or later.
Thanks for making this, my dude.
Or start getting completely unhinged from the get-go and go out in a blaze of electrochemical glory, and there is a destructive beauty in that too.
@@BeyondTheIslands bold of you to assume I haven't gotten that party started yet lmao
try some Peterson podcasts
@@whowaifu5475
Sometimes we need to dig just a little deeper, to really hit rock bottom in order to better come back up.
Hope you're doing alright. Much love.
Love the melancholic vibes this gives off
Shit hits different now that we know DE 2 will probably never exist - or at least will only exist as a compromised version without the key players who brought us the first.
And maybe, just maybe.. that's okay.
I have written my first story with this music. Thank you so much.
This is perfect.
Life is about leveling volition. Thank you crown boi
I identify fully with Harry as a super high functioning alcoholic myself.
Love this one in particular, meshes well with so many situations and moods. Thank you for doing this.
reminds me of the hilarious inland empire playthrough i started. never expected that much impact from fun and goofy to...what the actual fuck...that hurts...deep...
brilliant game. brilliant soundtrack. thanks.
Been eyeing this game for a while, hearing such a well-done score pushed me over
Have you played it yet? How did you like it?
Whatever the problem, the answer is always R E V E R B.
I cry every damn time.
Perfect for smoking alone in the middle of the night.
thanks, conceptualization. very cool
would love to have something similar for the phasmid reveal and boat ride/sad FM OST, but this is great too!
Good work, my man.
I wish I could experience this for the first time again
Thank you.
never played this game. for some reason this music is painfull.
I really want to replay Elysium, especially with the new voice acting, but I want to get far enough away from my first playthrough to really enjoy it again. I think I'm close though!
This song always sounds like it's about to transition into a slow-tempo piano version of "Where Is My Mind"
If you dig this, you should check out the songs Jack DeQuidt makes for Friends at the Table. (he's on bandcamp) They're great, and many of them have this vibe.
just looked him up -- this statement is true ^^^^
Midnight is 12 am😑. Nice vid tho: the music in DE is really pretty great.
Painting minis with this gets the flow goin.Works every time
The Figurines Won't Win Her Back
To find the truth behind Man and Woman's weakness. To pry the fire out. To path. To live before I die.
While I couldn't finish this game even on 5 seperate attempts, I kept coming back to this track. It captures a feeling I've longed since little, but was never able to vision on my own.
I'm curious. What did you struggle with? I managed to finish it on my second attempt. If its losing health or morale, make sure you have at least to bars of both and keep a large supply of health and morale bossters. It's possible to use them mid-conversation so you don't die.
As for running out of options for how to proceed. Just do the side-quests as they quite often glean new information for the case as well a xp so you can level up and retry skill-checks.
@@joshuabruce9599 the part where you go to southern shores, have to help the junkies make meth and the etymologist, it’s just too boring for me to grind through while stuck on main quests
@@hanfei6871 I never helped any junkies make meth. What are you talking about?
@@betin731 they are on the ice outside of the church partying, they ask you for purified water, you later find out they are making meth
@@hanfei6871 that's so cool! I've played through the game 3 times from start to finish now and I've never had them ask me for purified water before. In fact, took me a while to find out they were even going to set up a drug lab in the first place!
I'm Scott I'm a huge fan. Live in Medellin Colombia. Been living in Spain too.
Hi Scott
Is it unhealthy to repeat the whole track 3 times in a row?
No
That’s ok.I do the same thing with OST from Silent Hill 2
HARDCORE!!!
Revachol sleeps.
so peaceful and beautiful
Yesterday I got into the police department for my own reasons. It was fun to watch one of the detectives playing Disco Elysium in the recreation area.
Sound like a good music for lofi girl. Drunk lofi girl with thick sideburns and schizophrenia.
Short hair but not too short.
It just hits different.
the most beautiful game I played in recent years
Never played the game , but this is f good
Just beautiful.
"Doomed to wake up at 7:30 AM everyday just because a holy wow you made 16 years ago, with me. I am at your side." Harry's life is so troubled that he not remembering it may have actually eased it down at least in routine. I can relate to that but not remembering anything is horrible. What an experience this game was.
Thanks, stranger.
Great tune amazing game!
Honestly, this games ability to invoke emotions and various reflections, is beyond amazing. Thanks to the artist who created this music, for managing to ecapsulate every single moment in the game so perfectly with your music
Any chance we can get this treatment for Precinct 41 Major Crimes Unit?
I'll see what I can do, songs like that can be tricky since it doesn't end cleanly and I'd have to do my best to make it match up. This song in particular was very easy in comparison, hence why I went for it. No promises on Precinct 41 Major Crimes Unit since I'd rather not upload a bad-quality loop, but I'll try!
This as a movie would be great even more as a series
*Don't* give up.
Yooo this gameplay is fire
Listening to this sick, trying to sleep. Wish me luck
Thanks
Why does it feel like its two songs on top of eachother, trying to catch them both at the same time but can't.
Get on your arse Harry, you've got a good pair of boots to steal
reminds me of my most tender unrequited love
Thanks a lot! :)
Detective.
Thank you for this, i was just thinking about how i needed this. Do you have the other whirling rags in loops?
I just made this one since I haven't seen anyone else make an extended version of this song. If there are any songs you want extended that no one else has done, send a reply and I'll see what I can do! No promises but I'll give it a try.
@@theokaylin8871 how about the insulindian phasmid and boat ride OSTs? Would love having those on loop!
I'm living in a state where no one gets me. But this musician, this comment section does.
Isn't it 12am?
LOGIC: CHECK SUCCESS
This is the official song title given by the band; you can confirm this in the link I provided in the video's description. All I did was extend that exact song to 2 hours.
LOGIC: It is 12am
Electrochemistry: It's always 12am bayyybe
CONCEPTUALISATION: Although it is always 12am when this song plays, it will always be 12pm whenever you hear it. 12pm is not merely the time, but a state of being. In a previous life 12pm would have been referred to as "noon", the peak of the day and therefore the peak of life. But now it is just "12pm". 12pm is that space you enter so rarely these days, that quiet place where you have time to stop and think about things. The world slows down and you see yourself from above, one more speck in a sea of specks. It all feels so sad sometimes, so pointless, but you must push on just a little further. Something beautiful is about to happen, and we are all relying on you to get us there.
@@DeoMachina LOGIC: the band named this 12pm because they were not thinking, and PM to them meant “night” and they meant night vibes. Similar to when someone says “it was 12 o’clock at night” and do not mean noon.
