about

Traces is the debut EP from D E A T H O F T H E A U T H O R.

Combining elements of drone, signalwave, ambience, and musique concrète, Traces is a cascade of epic, emotive, textural sound. Through themes of forced migration, class, solidarity and displacement, it locates history in the present, and questions whether the future may have seemed better yesterday.

May the days to come find you,
And may they sing to a past
That resides within.
