Low Pressure

Built on a slow, hypnotic 111 BPM dub-ambient pulse in the key of B, "Low Pressure" navigates the heavy, physical grip of panic and the subsequent release of letting go. The production wraps a beautifully fragile prepared felt piano—complete with the raw, mechanical clack of audible hammer noise—in a warm blanket of hazy, drifting analog pad clouds. Guided by an off-kilter, close-proximity vocal delivery that weaves through cavernous, long room tails, the track mirrors an anchor-like breathing exercise designed to let the mental weather come undone, finding absolute calm in the low-pressure depths below.
