« The album starts and ends with the beauty of the album's dedicated, book-ending the murkiness and darkness in my mind and my continuing realisation of this. The track "A Wish For Common Silence" was written back in 2013 and little did I know how much of a sense it would mean in 2014/2015 and therefore a self-fulfilling prophecy, a full circle towards "A Wish For Common Silence" in both a metaphorical and literal sense.  ».

Thank you to Bryan, Andrew, Daryl, Gosh and Selffish for engaging in my music and encouraging me to release work and inspire me. Thank you to the countries and friends of Germany, Norway and Latvia for giving me a home, new culture and new experiences in the time spent. Thank you to the labels Eilean, Unknown Tone and Skyr for hosting my music in different formats."
