“Slow Motion”: The Song That Refused to Die

Publicado el 4 de agosto de 2025, 14:32

A chapter of stillness, rebirth, and everything in between.

Some songs are born fast—explosive, immediate, lightning in a bottle.
“Slow Motion” was not one of those songs.

It was born in fragments, across time and silence. Its earliest breath came in 2020, during the deep uncertainty of the global COVID lockdowns. The world was quiet. Life was paused. And in that strange, suspended stillness, a song began to form.

At first, it was meant to be a collaboration—with another Australian artist whose voice was set to carry the melody. We had plans. We had direction. But the world shifted beneath our feet. As the months passed, those plans dissolved. Not out of conflict, but out of distance, disconnection, and the chaos of an era where even the most stable things slipped away.

The song was shelved. Not forgotten, but left behind like a half-written letter.
Unfinished.
Unspoken.
Waiting.

What followed was a long, difficult silence.

From 2021 to 2024, I released nothing. Not a track, not a demo, not a sound.
Writer’s block became a second skin. Burnout crept into every creative corner. I began to question everything—my process, my purpose, my voice.
I wasn’t just disconnected from music. I was disconnected from myself.

But some things aren’t meant to disappear.
Some things wait patiently to return.

2024 was that return.
Not loud. Not immediate. But real.
That year marked the beginning of something I now call KEEZZ // REDUX—a quiet but undeniable rebirth. A rediscovery of voice. A refusal to stay buried.

And at the heart of that return was “Slow Motion.”
That unfinished track—the one that had haunted me for years—called me back. I knew it had to be completed. But it needed a new voice. A different presence. Someone who could not only finish the song, but awaken it.

That’s when I found Wild Gloriosa.

Her vocals didn’t just fit—they transformed everything.
She brought the emotional intensity I had always envisioned but never fully captured. Her voice poured life into every line. Cinematic. Haunting. Beautifully human.
She didn’t join the song. She became the song.

The instrumental took nearly a year to complete. Every sound, every texture was carefully sculpted. I wasn’t chasing perfection—I was chasing truth.
The track reflects a journey through stagnation, sorrow, and ultimately, return.

“Slow Motion” is more than a song.
It’s a map of survival.
It’s what happens when you fall apart and still find a way to piece yourself back together—one layer, one lyric, one moment at a time.

Now, in 2025, I’m moving again.
More songs are coming. The silence is over. The momentum is real.
And all of it is leading toward something greater—something bigger than a single track.
Maybe it’s an album.
Maybe it’s a statement.
Maybe it’s a world I’m still building.

But “Slow Motion” is the beginning.
The beginning of KEEZZ // REDUX.
The return of everything I lost.
And the sound of everything I’m ready to become.
