A year ago, this video was being played at Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography. It caught my soul deeply.

there is this thing with "new", which of course means adaptive to how thing are in "reality" "now": it is purely and simply difficult, as opposed to habitual.

Just out of curiosity, should music EVER be any other way? I will admit to struggling with both albums, but I suggest you continue to give Manafon a couple of more tries. It just may grow on you.

I have only listened to the album once. I have read a comment somewhere describing this album as challenging. I was hoping for something a tad brighter or more melodic but somehow, this song has sunk in. I cannot explain how or why, is it the sentiment, the voice?
When I am ready, I'll give the album another listen. I'm afraid to say it but I think this could really grab me.

I love your new album, David..

So it's been two months now since my last opinion of Manafon and I have to this...I went on a road trip and really gave the album a good listen. It was just me, the whirring of my tires, the road sliding away underneath me and this album and I came to find that it moved me. I listened to it in a way I don't listen to most albums. I was careful, I was cautious, it was soulful and I opened up and let it come in. It is a work that will stand the test of time and will create a space in your heart.
