The 88rising especially NIKI, Brian and Joji has a very special part in me. I love their music, the content of their music , their art, and the way they portray themselves in the public. They're just genuine in being themselves.
So, to further show my love and support for them and for the whole 88rising, I would like to recommend to you all to listen in their newly released album, the Head in the clouds II. If you have a real shit in your mind or in your heart that you can't spill into words, let their music help you so.
Linked below are some of my personal favorites and recommendation in the album Head in the Clouds II. (The whole album is a bomb but flowers will blow out when explodes. hehe)
These Nights by Rich Brian & Chungha
Indigo by NIKI
"How far out does the indigo go? Boy, let's find out, take the longer way home "
Strange Land by NIKI & Phum Viphurit
a perfect song for you if you keep on finding your home onto someone's arm or company even though they're not part of your life anymore.
also a song for someone who keeps on chasing something or someone and yet lost himself throughout the search.
La La Lost You by NIKI
whenever you miss someone whom cannot be with you anymore.
Need is your Love by Joji and GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE
It's just that, i miss u
Head in the Clouds, from my own interpretation is the feeling of being carefree, breathing air in peace while laying down in a wide green open field with your arms wide open and eyes closed. It's about you living in peace, laying on a cloud but not dead.
In relation to this, a colleague of mine has his own clothing line known as Unhinged.CO. According to him, the name came from the term unhinged itself which means mentally unbalanced leading to its brand, anti-depression.
"Lost in my own thoughts" is one of his product in which the whole concept design was inspired by the cigarette, red Marlboro.
The red Marlboro symbolizes a break from reality (cigarette); red petals pertain to the people who loves you; person who has depression is represented by a hangman knot.
When you're in deep shit, lost in your own thoughts, I would say listen to music with calming beats and a song that understands you. Take a break from the crowd and surround yourself with the people you love. You are not alone, talk to communicate, you have them :)
