tirestires a delicate collage of emo textures cut in and out in conversation with dry drum breaks. the arrangements hit hard without losing their intimacy. all delivered through economic structures. a vision of hyperpop drawing less from pc music and more from k records.
an album meant for introspective winter evenings. i like to listen to it alone. you should give it a proper go if you haven't yet.

right foot in tar bent like dope-sick make plans to shift but they wont stick now i’m not weak that’s why he likes me hide and seek what i can’t see my words they don’t click i’m just his thin blue line i’m still his thin blue line right foot on wall posture open look face to face nothing is showing but i’m not weak he thinks i might be hide and seek i think i might leave his thoughts they broken i’m just his thin blue line i’m still his thin blue line

im tame let’s dance hits home to see you laughing trance closed eyes like you’re crashing but when is the last time that i did the same guess i don’t really like the ways i’m tame k let’s dip you want impulse i’m with it thick skin thick unless i’m with you but when is the last time i was with you guess im not the type to see plans through but let’s talk hard to hear past the aux cord block watch you glance at the clock like when is the last time i made some time guess i never thought you would pay much mind k lets split you want closure i’m with it spit the taste of your tongue tip damn when is the last time i did the same guess i don’t really like the ways i’m tame i’m tame

about

On "familypet09," Canadian producer/songwriter jksims crafts 19 minutes of blissful bedroom hypnagogic glitch pop. Intimate, but vague and dreamlike lyrics. In a perfect world, this is what “hyperpop” would actually be. Included in download is the remastered version, which touches up the original to include warbly glitches that make you feel like you’re misremembering memories of your childhood.
