Though the songs began as attempts to “transcend darkness,” over time they absorbed shadows and sorrows of their own, becoming lessons in coexistence: “learning to be with it all.” The album evokes overlapping vignettes within this layered fantasia: fading flowers along a balcony, distant birds above the surf, light glittering off a courtyard pond, sunset skylines darkening to lavender night. It’s a place of healing but also heaviness, fragile peace contoured with pains of the past. White Poppy’s music has always been mirage-like but here her voice, guitar, keys, and soft-focus siren designs feel uniquely potent and distilled, weathered and wizened by years and yearning, the weight of memories of memories. These are melodies of psychic questing and self-discovery, at the edge of illusion and insight, glimpses of heaven half-remembered and half-imagined: “Paradise is a place within.” credits releases April 24, 2020 Mixed by Jordan Koop at The Noise Floor. Mastered by Mitch Holtby. Art and design by Crystal Dorval. https://whitepoppy.bandcamp.com/album/paradise-gardens

其他时候听可能嫌太寡淡,但对现在而言一张声音轻轻氛围缥缈的梦泡正是恰到好处
