Thank jacob for introducing me to this wonderful song and musician!
Same! I heard it and knew it was an excellent song to end such an amazing video
💯💯💯
That's how I found this too.
Same.
Yeah. This song is great. There is something about her voice that is unique.
I know this is from a poem, but the way this is captured feels like it belongs in a movie or the end credits of a game. I don't really know how else to describe it, it feels more than just hauntingly beautiful.
it’s at the end credits of a 48 minute video essay about the existential aspects of the unknown things of the sea, if that counts for anything.
@@anomalocaristheabnormalshr3248 I think it counts for something
It's funny how a song about a giant underwater monster, that normally would scare the absolute shit out of me, sounds so beautiful to me, I really like this song!
This song turns the deep, dark, vaguely horror-esque fears of confused stories to warn teams of dozens of rugged men that have been exaggerated to eldritch detail just to drive home the majesty.. into what feels more like a fantastical dream, unimaginable and never able to be captured again it its beautiful mystery the way it was first beheld in your childish imagination. A dream that you say goodbye to as it floats away to the heavens where all wonder and desire fades off to, only to be fondly remembered in its strange but unique existence as that gut feeling you had long ago.
Please excuse the word vomit, I've been obsessed with this all day.
I love this so much. It's so incredibly beautiful. My friends and I are playing a Ghost of Saltmarsh D&D campaign, and I'm playing a Fathomless Warlock with my patron being a kraken-like creature. If my character dies, she is getting a burial at sea to this song.
There's something very special in this translation of the text. It manages to both illuminate the descriptions of the sublime and infuse it with so much sadness. By the end it feels like humanity has killed the kraken and, in doing so, destroyed something far more beautiful than we could ever imagine.
Just came here from Jacob Geller's video. Hauntingly beautiful song. Adding to my daily rotation for sure. Definitely a new fan :)
This brings tears to my eyes
There's a quality about this song that perfectly captures the majesty and mystery of the sea. It sounds both alien and familiar. Like recalling a faded memory from childhood.
I'm crushing real hard on this song right now. Just heard it in Jacob's latest video and immediately fell in love. I am SO obsessed! Can't wait to listen to the rest of your discography =D!

Me introducing this song to people: Yes this is the song about a big squid that makes me cry.
Such a hauntingly beautiful and ethereal song. I was half asleep when it played at the end of “fear of big things underwater.” I almost thought I was dreaming 😴✨🦑
Same experience I had. I had fallen asleep watching Jacob's Fear video and woe up to this playing over the end credits and was absolutely enchanted.
This happend to me too. Fell asleep and woke up to this enchanting song.
Jacob Geller brought me here. I've never heard anyone use their voice like this. I'm enchanted. I love this and I need more!
Really pretty song! I like your combination of the orchestrated instruments and your filtered voice. They compliment each other in a way I didn’t think they would, but it works really well!
Love how it sounds filtered and broken.
Jacob tipped me off, I love the vocals, badass song.
Well…this is a new favorite song of mine
this song is gorgeous. jacob always has bangers at the end of his videos i swear
Here from Jacob Geller's video essay, looking forward to checking out your other music!
This is not my kind of music, but I can't stop listening to this song. You are absolutely phenomenal, Katie! Thank you for making me feel something. It's been way too long since music has affected me like this song. You're a true artist. I honestly hope you blow up and get famous. Your music deserves to be heard everywhere.
Jacob Geller is such a good way of findng new, interesting, good quality media
This is so good! I'm going to stick around
He didn't "find" this song, he comissioned it.
@@Lulink013 I found it
Why you read wrong mate
@@jotabeas22 Oh yeah, sorry
@@Lulink013 :P
Hauntingly beautiful, just like the depths
I thank Jacob for introduce me to the unspeakable unknown, and allowing me to hear this music. Great song btw. Keep it up 🤩👍
Man, I love Jacob for commissioning these for his videos, the Cremation of Sam McGee has been my favorite song since it came out, and this one is just as good.
this track has incredible atmosphere.
i think the fact this is an old poem adapted into a song is very interesting.
heard in jacobs vid. but this is a piece of art. love it
I just watched Jacob's video on the Fear of Big Things Underwater, which led me to check out your music as your song perfectly encompassed and ended his video. If i hadn't watched it, I never would have known about you and your amazing music
Some of my friends say poetry is always best sung. I think I know what they mean now.
This is the most beautifully unmetal, metal thing I've ever heard. This lady is incredible
Ominous and majestic, but also tender like a lullaby from the depths. This song’s loveliness caught me off guard in Fear Of Deep Things Underwater, now listening to it on its own for days
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a long time
Found you through Jacob Geller's video. Amazing song, thank you!
Beautiful I must thank Ben of Chapter Music for recommending you to me, and then that led to Devi and Ada and Black Dresses and my favourite music of the year from the three of you.
A lullaby for an incomprehensible beast.
Thank you Jacob for introducing me to this song and for commissioning it from Katie. Great great job. As a huge Lovecraft fan, I'm amazed at the feelings I get from this song!! It's actually really phenomenal how the music accentuates the poem to such a place that I'd much rather hear it in the context of the music than by itself
wow
Hauntingly beautiful. There’s so much emotion and tumultuous waves of tension and release. This is auditory art.
5th listen of this little album. Your sound is absurdly beautiful! I love this style so much!
currently writing a personal essay about chinook salmon & god. this feels like a good song to loop in the bg while i do that lmao
I came here from Jacob like everyone els. I just wanted to say thank you katie for this song. Truly amazing. Keep it up 🥳
"Do you know how I'd really like to die?"
"You mean besides the tree thing, because I thought you sounded pretty sold on that..."
"Cherry blossoms are great but this is next level."
"How so?"
"It's kinda similar in a way... It's from a myth I read about when I was little. About the daughters of Atlas. Do you want to hear it?"
"Yeah sure, if it's next level I mean, go ahead."
"Well, basically it goes like this. Atlas was a titan and ruled the world, but then Zeus and the other gods came along and took the titans' place. He made Atlas hold up the sky, so that it doesn't fall on our heads but he forgot about his daughters. Atlas could not bear to part with them so he pleaded with Zeus to let them join him so he made them stars and put the constellation right above him, so he could be with them forever... Anyway. For some reason it stuck with me... So there you go. That's what I'd want, if I could pick anything I mean. I'd like to become a star too."
"..."
"Yeah I know, right..."
"I could do that."
"You could?"
"Yeah. Find a dense system, set up some gravity wells, overload a dark matter reactor, get fission going, supply core material..."
"Sounds complicated. What would it take, ten thousand years?"
"More like a hundred thousand... if you don't have FTL drives that is."
"Wait; are you being serious?"
"You have to give me six months."
"Do you just want me to-"
"Just six months."
"Nil, you don't have to-"
"Just six months. Please..."
"I... I don't know if I have six months left..."
"You do. Six months."
"Fine. Six months; and we do it together. Wheelchair me around when I can't walk."
"Six months; together; chauffeur; no fee. Deal?"
"Deal."
"..."
"You could have said it you know."
"Say what."
"I will make you a star..."
this is a masterpiece. One of the most remarkable reinterpretations of a piece of art I've ever experienced. The gnomic, dispassionate tone of the original piece is sublimated into an apocalyptic yet joyous fatalism that simultaneously revels in and laments our natural world precipitating toward an inevitable destruction
Really amazing. Beautifully creepy.
Here from, as I suspect many of us are, the recent Jacob Geller video. And as awesome as that essay was - as all his content is - being introduced to this song and the rest of Katey’s work is my favorite thing about it. I didn’t know how badly I needed this music in my life. Thank you for the time and effort you put into crafting these beautiful songs; they’re all I’ve been listening to for the past four days, and shall be, I suspect, for a while longer.
serious Imogen Heap vibes from this, love it so so much!
This came out around the time I started working out, and by coincidence I ended up listening to it usually immediately after a session, and just felt the deep urge to weep that I couldnt explain.
And today after a particularly rough workout, the same thing happened, and I think I figured it out.
The great kraken, a monumental myth, as great as it is ancient. This poem effectively laments its death. But its a peaceful, quiet death by itself. Its old, its TIRED, and can no longer support itself as it floated too far to the surface. In its dying hours, it beholds a light it could never fathom in the deep, likely witnessing winged creatures it could never have imagined, coming down from the heavenly light to it, unaware they are simply scavenger birds. It may be in pain and knows its about to die, and it lived a long, rough life of survival but in its last moments, it knows boundless beauty and peace.
And this song is both orchestrated and sung so beautifully, I cant help but empathize with that in my imagination, as my muscles scream at me and I want to vomit, this song makes me feel like Im at a peace that is too much to believe or fathom, and all my brain can do to process this feeling is weep.
Wow, just wow. This is another one of those songs that I get an incredibly strong emotional response from. It's incredibly beautiful, and is apparently connecting with me in a way that I don't really understand. Thank you so much for creating such wonderful music.
Fear of big things underwater brought me here, the ending hit me so hard when the music came in, I had to make this song a part of my life. Amazing job!
Here from Jacob Geller...
Below the thunders of the upper deep,
Far, far beneath in the abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides; above him swell
Huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
And far away into the sickly light,
From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
Unnumbered and enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
Then once by man and angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
For all those who can't see the lyrics lol
Wow, that was absolutely beautiful.
here from Jacob Geller
this sounds like.. prayer (appreciative)
Alfred Lord Tenneyson I believe.
I think its about our deeper levels of consciousness and how sometimes its better they stay mysterious.
Just as fantastic beats turn to documented animals so too does human existence turn from meaningful mysteries to painful understanding. To know is the death of magic, love, pain, and God.
Beautiful!
Chills
That was absolutely beautiful. I wouldn't have come up with this sound for lyrics like this, but it works woderfully
Amazing poem, and this song outstandingly captures the haunting beauty of the deep ocean, and the unknown things just beyond sight and sound.
ily katie
I just had to find this song straight away
This is a certified feels banger and i love it
I've fallen in love with your music in the past few hours. Thank you.
I love this song. it is hauntingly beautiful but also very sad. You are very talented.
thank you for sharing this with us!!!
Thank you
Cthulu awaiting your song...
Your voice is incredible.
Beautiful song! I just had to check out the artist after hearing this on the video.
So beautiful, oh my god!
Jacob geller sent me here, I have no words for the goosebumps your voice bestowed upon me,.
Truly gorgeous.
You could make any words sound good, I think.
1:32 this bit go crazy
Thank you jacob!
Any chance this makes it to Spotify? T_T
I have a feeling she's about to blow up. It'll be a crime if she doesn't
yup spotify soon, just takes a few days to process
@@katiedey It's up!
it acutally is a good song to relax with
This feels like what people want me to feel when I listen to a 30 minute God Speed You! Black Emperor song
Incredible and inspiring, my jaw dropped when I realized you had interpolated (is that the right word? I dunno ahah) a poem about a Kraken and made it both soothingly melodic and heart tugging-ly melancholic. Why am I so sad over a dang Kraken?
Interpreted
Jacob Geller hooked us onto this song and channel.
I wept. Just came to say thanks ☺️
What effect is being applied to the vocals?
So thats what Nirvana feels like !
This is absolutely beautiful. It captures the childlike wonder but horror of things lurking just beneath the ocean's surface. Wonderful job.
just saw it come on spotifyyyy tyyyyyyy
anyone know if this is on spotify? id love to listen to this everyday while working
heya , yep spotify is processing , it takes a couple days . however please consider throwing me a dollar on bandcamp or patreon instead !
@@katiedey tyy
