I'M STEADY


today - it felt real - I gave you air 
I must say you're tame - today
it felt real - I gave you air
I would burn to see you



I'M STEADY
volume up

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH:  
the story behind I'm Steady


it's all good - I'm steady


a couple of weeks ago, I was surfing youtube
and came across this amazing track w/a single pic
there were no music credits

I downloaded it anyway; imported it into logic and started a simple remix
adding instruments, voices & visual clips I found; launching it

curious and even tormented, I scoured for more info
and found out that the music was of a young French DJ
going by the name of Øfdream and that he had recently committed suicide

his internet presence is/was almost non existent
he only uploaded 8 tracks (that I could find) and this second piece
was one that felt unfinished to me
a more comprehensive undertaking
felt appropriate - more work
worth it

it was my mission - to finish what he started

envisioning collisions
converting chaos

interesting that I found him just as he chose to leave us
every Øfdream track I've heard is brilliant
and we've lost a truly gifted musical soul

  1. øfdream made much more than 8 tracks that's for sure. Lookup on Reddit threads there one where a friend of his shares his entire collection for free so we can remember him.
