auraelia


order ↗
2019, ep, injazero records



“The idea of the tracks on Auraelia EP came about during a strange period of having daily migraines with auras for a month. The physical reaction I was experiencing from the auras – the haziness/blurriness/partial loss of sight and spots of light surrounding every day vision – also seemed to reflect the emotions I was experiencing at the time – confusion, lack of clarity, ambiguity, mixed feelings of hope and melancholy...

I then discovered that Aurelia is a type of jellyfish, which also strangely seemed to fit the description perfectly. I learnt that jellyfish don’t have a central nervous system or brain, but respond to stimuli detected from their tentacles - so they’re almost floating through the ocean, kind of helplessly, but perhaps with an innate sense of direction...”
