Entry 1262 - Sleepy Fish - Beneath Your Waves


Style: lofi hip hop

Primary Emotions/Themes: Velocities mapped out on paper now carried to the floor. Waters color when the sun breaks, warm days spent at shore

Thoughts: The Sleepy Fish trilogy continues with Beneath Your Waves. Compared to My Room Becomes the Sea this album has a distinct influence from indie rock. The guitar is still the main instrument, however we sometimes will get vocals singing nonsensical lyrics and the drums certainly feel like they belong in an indie band.

That's not the entirety of the album however. The guitar is still paired with other instruments that help bring this squarely into the lofi hip hop territory. Despite the indie rock leanings the album still has a way of calming me, of forcing me to drop my guard... allow myself to not be on edge. A rare thing indeed.
