Not every cassette ░░ filled with instrumentals is a beat tape. Not every beat maker is a ░░ producer. Not all the music you pump into your headphones is headphone ░░ music. And then there is ALXNDRBRWN. ░░ ░░ The Alex Brown Project is a zone of its own, a word-free sector of sound ░░ where the magic lies in the subtleties. It is a collection of collages ░░ that invite you to acquaint yourself with the vowel-less music-maker ░░ behind Sage FrancisÆ classic track ôGrace.ö The Baltimore, Maryland-based ░░ producer dug in deep and and transformed his experiences into a series of ░░ moods that set the scene for the journey that was the catalyst for him to ░░ create TABP - a bit of sadness, a feeling of closure, the epiphany of ░░ clarity. A dip into despair followed by the achievement of self-love, and ░░ finally, of happiness. ░░ ░░ ôThe project encapsulates every feeling that I went through in 2019,ö ░░ says BRWN (born Mathew Alexander). ôIn that year I experienced extreme ░░ depression and anxiety that almost took me. But I am here and proud to ░░ say I worked very hard at conquering all those negative feelings and ░░ thoughts, and that work brought me the most joy and love I have ever ░░ experienced for myself. This album represents a dark time and a ░░ transition into the light, an understanding that I am strong and worth ░░ something. I hope to reach people who share that struggle and them know ░░ that they are loved and never alone.ö ░░ ░░ The lo-fi soundscapes work best as one cohesive listen, but the albumÆs ░░ centerpiece is a song called ôDrifterö: ôThat track was made at a moment ░░ in time where I felt helpless and resorted to doctors to keep me drugged ░░ up so I didnÆt have to feel anything. I was too afraid to face my ░░ reality. I felt like a wandering drifter in this life. No direction, no ░░ inspiration to live, and just clueless on who and where I was. Not ░░ physically where I was, but mentally. The water sounds represent the ░░ consumption of anything and everything to ease the pain. Which actually ░░ made it worse, making me drown in it all.ö ░░ ░░ The water embedded in ôDrifterö also serves as a reminder that the same ░░ thing that can pull us under also makes us float. ALXNDRBRWNÆs musical ░░ trip brings us out of the shadows and into the sun, the place where he ░░ ultimately came to understand the comfort of creation. ░░ ░░ ôReally I just love playing with sounds. I canÆt think of a better thing ░░ to do with my time,ö says Alexander. ôI just hope people enjoy this ░░ project as much as I did creating it.ö ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /─────────────────────────\ ░░░██ ███ ░| learned from vets |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| and they |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| ain't pet doctors |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \─────────────────────────/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/142587432
