Aquarium of Regret
About the album
Aquarium of Regret is a project I made as another entry to my discography as well as a personal piece of art. This album consists of 9 mainly instrumental songs and one bonus track for the Youtube upload.
Like all my other albums, AoR presents itself as a bunch of my feelings translated into music, however this time, I wanted the project to focus more specifically on one aspect of my thoughts, that being my flaws.
The original concept came to me after a nice scrolling session on Threads and coming across a post jokingly asking if the sea would notice a fish's tear. It stayed in my headspace for a long while after that day.
Child me watched a lot of cartoons, and in those cartoons they would have imagery of a character crying so much that their tears flood the entire room. I, myself, get sensitive at intervals throughout life, so the feeling of drowning in my own tears was a common occurence whenever things got overwhelming for me (though everything works out in the end)
The image of an aquarium resembles this feeling that I thought was the most accurate, as if you were submerged in all your flaws and feelings, and there seems to be no way out.
Each track of AoR goes through a fault that I possess in a rather ambiguous way, and I hope that I am able to bring the best experience to you with this new release. I am aware that I was driven away from making music for a few months, but I hope this makes the wait worth it! As always, thank you for your support.
