[EXPLORATION LP.] by KEEM THE CIPHER

the saga continues.

this album is my favorite thing that i've ever created (thus far)
my goal was to create an album that sounds like every crush you've ever had - an album full of ballads.

this is music for playlists dedicated to the girl/guy/person you're falling for (lol).

exploration is simply the next step in the narrative. cosmos was my coming of age album; i made it in my final year of high school. symbolically, thats what the rocket means to me - growing up. the rocket is an embodiment of what the future holds; its an open door.

the future is so scary because now that ive arrived on this new planet, i don't have clue where to go from here.
but at the same time, its all so exciting. the people who ive grown to love are so far away, but perhaps they have their own rockets too.

lol idk.

anyway, enjoy.
<3

originally, the album was very sample based, like the previous work.
midway through, i decided that the emotions that ive been feeling would be portrayed more accurately if i played all of the feelings i felt. therefore, most of this album is sample-free.

PS: i really wanna put this album on vinyl so ill start taking pre-orders for that soon.

PSS: dont rap on these beats without emailing me and asking lol.

PSSS: ily.
