happy4_u by Boys in Skirts

This is the best thing I've ever made. I spent a while on this, and a lot of meticulousness that I have never put into songs. I put so much love into this project and tried to make it as lovely sounding as possible. The process of making this album required cutting up pieces of music, some pre-existing and some made my me, into hundreds of tiny little pieces and rearranging them into gorgeous little shattered glass cubist pieces. Or that's at least what I attempted to do. A lot was made in long marathons, late at night and throughout the day. Making this was very therapeutic and I hope listening to it is as well.

Influenced by Jim O'Roark, Ricky Eat Acid, Tim Hecker, Fennesz, Nicholas Jaar, Aphex Twin, Black Dice, Blithe Field, Brian Eno (Discreet Music), Caribou, Grouper, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, Joanna Brouk, Mutual Benefit, Raymond Scott, Stars of the Lid, Steve Reich, Terry Riley, A winged victory for the sullen, Yellow Swans, Arca, Emamouse X yeongrak, Grandpawww, r beny, Yves Tumor, and hundreds of others that i just wanted to thank for helping me with all the ideas and effort that went into this album.

I want to make music that people can make moments to
