  Release Info:  

“With this album, I wanted to focus on the essence of melody and expose it in a raw
form through the electronic medium.  The source of the main melodies came from repetitive
hooks I found myself sporadically singing or humming during day to day business.  Think of
the joyful tunes whistled during a walk.  These melodic mantras seem to pop up out of
nowhere and go on repeating forever.  When I'd notice this, I'd hang onto the melody
until I could get to the studio and bang it out, no matter how obvious or straightforward
it was.  Once the main melodies and inflections were out, I could carefully construct an
audio bedding for them and see where it led.  From a larger perspective, I felt that the
search for these melodies was similar to unearthing subconscious archetypes that drive
reality.  The process was like discovering an ever-flowing undercurrent of reality that
can be translated directly into melody.  In this case, it felt that the source of them
all must absolutely be love.” – KiloWatts
