If my debut album Liminal Space was a chronological journey through a specific chapter of my life, with a clear beginning, middle, and resolution. Almost Forever is something else entirely. It’s less of a linear narrative and more of a concept expressed through various lenses. The concept? Nothing lasts forever.
The common thread throughout Almost Forever is impermanence. Sometimes, it’s the insecurity we feel when we realize nothing is guaranteed. Other times, it’s the relief that comes from knowing we’re free from the limiting beliefs and stories that have been holding us back. And sometimes, it’s both at once.
We know deep down that nothing is truly guaranteed forever. Not relationships. Not dreams. Not even the identities we cling to. The only constants in life are change and impermanence. And yet, we still make promises, declarations, and commitments as if we can outrun that truth.
Why?
Because loving something, even temporarily, feels better than not loving at all.
And that’s really what this album is about.
Almost Forever brings together several subgenres of house music: progressive, melodic, ambient, and pop. Every song is layered with top lines, a ton of harmonies, callbacks, whispers, chants, counter melodies. It’s all there. Spacious, and ethereal.
When people listen, I want them to feel held. Like they’re wrapped in something soft and floating through the clouds. Like I’m sitting on their shoulder, whispering in their ear. Like a little angel, watching over them.
*And, fun fact: people have been calling me an angel my whole life. My Nonno always told people I had “the voice of an angel,” my sound bath clients often say they feel angelic presence when I sing, and at multiple jobs I’ve been lovingly dubbed “sweet angel.” It’s kind of my thing 😋
It’s no wonder I’ve gravitated toward the ethereal house genre. It feels like authentically me, through and through. Honestly, don’t be surprised if my next project has Angel in the title. I’ve already started dreaming up ways to play with that idea 😉
And finally, a letter of love to my listeners:
One of the most healing moments in my own emotional life is when I realize I’m not alone in what I’m feeling. That someone out there has held the same fears, the same triumphs.
That’s what I hope Almost Forever offers you.
If you’ve ever loved someone you knew you might lose, or if you’ve ever had to say goodbye to a version of yourself, this album is for you.
