When all days have passed, and their nights before
And sunrays at last, caught in time, no more
When shadows are freed, from the ones they abhor
And truth in silence, breaks through forgotten lore
When darkness unveils, stripped from mythology
What disrupts history, that never stopped trottin'
What is hidden in words, risen above what is to see
The meaning that bursts, through the eye so rotten
In flashes too quick, in the ruins to be
In bile as heavy, so black it has gotten
Then remember, O please, do keep in memory
That the ones who lay here, too, longed to be forgotten
~—- Frederik Thys
As ruins, we lay EP consists of tracks conceived between 2019/20 and 22. Tracks 2+4 are livecoding (forever grateful for the tidalcycles and supercollider communities). Tracks 1+3 were initially songs from a project with Elias Durnez on guitar and electronics, Wannes Dewit on drums and electronics. Thank you to Elias (ig: @g3r44rd) for letting me use his melodies, harmonies and everything in between. Thank you to Frederik Thys for writing and inspiring me. Thank you to Ludwig Vandenbergen for working with me on the visuals and inspiring me. All my friends, forever grateful.

one of the most beautiful ambient collection i've heard in years. It has great transition between the mixes and sets the right mood four our current global situation. Definitely gives us hope to go on. Stay safe everyone ! filipgudovic
