+
+Today is a very special day, because it marks the release of my first music album since 2020.
+
+_along rivers, forever adrift,_ is the culmination of the work I did during [music making weeks][page:music-making-week.dj], polished up, tied together into a continuous mix, and mastered to sound great on your favourite pair of headphones.
+
+_along rivers, forever adrift,_ is a mixture of styles and inspirations.
+It takes you through spacious ambiences, nostalgic soundscapes, and lovely little melodies, influenced by the likes of [Kettel](https://kettel.bandcamp.com/album/re-through-friendly-waters), [Secede](https://secede.bandcamp.com/album/tryshasla), [The Flashbulb](https://theflashbulb.bandcamp.com/album/opus-at-the-end-of-everything), [C418](https://c418.bandcamp.com/album/excursions), [Disaster](https://disasterpeace.bandcamp.com/album/fez-ost)[peace](https://disasterpeace.bandcamp.com/album/hyper-light-drifter-original-video-game-soundtrack).
+Yet there's still something unique.
+A part of me.
+
+I already briefly mentioned this on its Bandcamp page, but making this album made me smile and cry way too often.
+It's a labour of love, and I hope it can make you feel something beautiful, as much as it did for me.
+
+---
+
+A while ago, back in June 2022, I made a song called [_on uncertainty_](https://daknus.bandcamp.com/track/on-uncertainty) for Dad.
+It was the first time he'd heard my music in a while, and I was happy to hear him say this song sounds like something that could go on the radio.
+
+I cherish these words greatly.
+
+While making this album, each day I managed to make a song that sounded "radio-worthy," I felt like the happiest, most fulfilled person on Earth.
+
+Making a song a day was absolutely magical, and did wonders on the quality of my music.
+Suddenly, I felt like my creativity bloomed, my production skills were unshackled, and I was making more of those radio-worthy songs than I could ever imagine.
+
+I was no longer some bloke who makes music from time to time.\
+For just a brief moment... I felt like a real musician.
+
+For some time already, I didn't have faith I could be great at anything else than writing computer programs.
+This album changed my mind.
+
+It's good to know I can find happiness in something other than programming.
+
+---
+
+Thank you for reading this far.
+
+If I didn't manage to convince you to take a listen, here's my last attempt: this album is like taking the best out of ambient, hip-hop, chiptune, idm, and jazz, and smashing them together into an emotional journey of self-discovery along rivers, mountains, forests, beaches, tea fields, wetlands.
+
+You can [buy the album exclusively from Bandcamp](https://daknus.bandcamp.com/album/along-rivers-forever-adrift), in delicious lossless FLAC quality.\
+I promise you won't regret it.
