about
Are we really alone in the conscious world? Have we been here before? What is the meaning of life and death; are we truly cyclic in all forms?
Within "infinity," Nelson Devereaux begs these questions despite knowing there simply is no answer, relishing the peace within that ontological obliteration. That’s the fundamental tapestry of the Minneapolis resident’s jazz-adjacent sophomore album, out on November 7th with NYC based label Youngbloods. Sifting through spaces of ethereal jazz, experimental art pop, and off-kilter IDM-inspired rhythms, Devereaux’s newest collection of works is as adventurous and explorative as it is graceful and precise. "shosha gate" the second single in our journey toward "infinity," bridges the gap between our present and memories of Himeji, Japan to craft aural phosphenes paradoxically near and far.

lyrics
A heartbeat
A heartbeat
Can’t think
I can’t sleep
Wondering
I’m wandering
Who goes
Follow the trail a piece
Take the ride up a cablecar
Shown us to where the stables are
Figuring to
figure out
Glide on towards the mountaintop
Bright eyed
Ride on
Ride on
Ride on
Bright eyed
Ride on
Right on
Right on
Ride on
Ride on
Ride on
Bright eyed
If you knew me better you’d know I don’t know myself right now (x4)
If you knew me better you’d know that I don’t know myself right now (x2)
Ride on
Ride on
A heartbeat
Can’t think
I can’t sleep
Wondering
I’m wandering
Who goes
Follow the trail a piece
Take the ride up a cablecar
Shown us to where the stables are
Figuring to
figure out
Glide on towards the mountaintop
Bright eyed
Ride on
Ride on
Ride on
Bright eyed
Ride on
Right on
Right on
Ride on
Ride on
Ride on
Bright eyed
If you knew me better you’d know I don’t know myself right now (x4)
If you knew me better you’d know that I don’t know myself right now (x2)
Ride on
Ride on
