Are we social beings? Isolation plays an important role in our music, as most of our pieces are built on our feelings and our attempts to communicate. Feeling disconnected, socially withdrawn, and physically distant can also have positive effects. We find it necessary to disconnect at times and build a world of our own, as the focus is on communication, reflection, and introspection.

This EP, like 'Other, Like Me', deals with understanding inner differences within our own culture - the common ground, if you will. Kinship is sometimes hard to find, and we all have different ways. Sometimes humanity is the devil, but sometimes the process is as it really is.

These four cuts aim to create that inner space, our invocation and prayer to share something that is often beyond words.

 

The "Seclusion EP" continues our work from the "Isolation EP" and the album "Other, Like Me". The four tracks explore the concept of seclusion as a personal choice: freedom from environmental and social distractions to enhance our creative focus.

While beneficial, this practice is not without challenges. Finding the balance between isolation and engagement is difficult because it requires constant attention.

We are complex, not easily understood, and we often struggle to stop the inner dialogue and rumination.
