Fuck Buttons’ Andrew Hung released his first solo EP called Rave Cave, all entirely composed on a Gameboy, earlier this year and now, comes news of a sequel, Rave Cave 2.
The first track from it, ‘Repetition vs Time’ kicks off the latest edition of Hung’s own podcast called Off The Beaten Track, in which Hung shares music he’s discovered on Soundcloud – “an echo chamber of my own tastes.”
Of Rave Cave 2, Hung says:
This bloke called Lao Tzu said “if you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present.” Don’t we all feel that? Try it now, check out your surroundings and realise you’re all right.
The burden of humanity is also our strength: imagination. One facet that has evolved out of imagination is time. However time doesn’t exist; clocks exist. The more I began to entrench that idea, the closer I got to the state we’re in as children ie being free of anxiety or depression.
Cheers to being!
