Charming and haunting. Don't be put off by the minimal cover, this is a solid mix of ambience and nostalgic synths/chiptune.
Favorite track: Bells.

This is underrated. Got a really good early synth vibe, accompanied by a late-life SNES RPG undertone. Love it. I hope Innomi continues this narrative!
Favorite track: Rebuild.

about
Extramusically:
Displacement as I meant for this album title is a sensation I think young people are all too familiar with, many of us feel displaced, placeless even, our wants and needs displaced, expectations displaced within the reality of the conditions in which we currently live.
A lot of times music can convey a sense of displacement, it’s interesting how a genre that is displaced anachronically and makes people feel displaced for places they’ve never been to exploded in our era. I think that says something.
I’m very much of the opinion that music should be it’s own medium and that extramusical content has been over emphasized when talking about music. In my case specifically, it frequently happens that there’s no extramusical content until the time for titling and doing the artwork comes, in which case, even if not intending to add it, even by the sheer use of language because we as humans are machines of finding and producing meaning, even where there might be none.
In any case I believe in the death of the author and ultimately, people will attach their own (displaced) meanings to the work.
Musically:
The first song I have a memory of hearing is Ray Charles’ “Baby won’t you please come home”, the first in a Jazz & Blues compilation in the living room library, it wasn’t until my teens that I had my first musical falling-in-love with Jazz, eventually learning how to play the sax for that very reason.
I never got the musical chops required to actually play it if I’m not reading the sheet music, and eventually my love shifted towards experimental music, where it lies today, but I can’t deny the influence that even if surreptitiously it has had in my music making, Miles Davis’ 70’s output was the cathalyst for my love for experimental music.
I don’t consider this album to be Jazz, but it certainly is the jazziest thing I’ve done when it comes to harmony, which wasn’t intentional, but rather came about from trying out new harmonic techniques. That also applies to the numerous modulations found throughout the album, for some reason I just feel myself attracted to that device and it wasn’t pre-meditated to have so many.
It’s interesting, to circle back to the title, how the techniques that permeate this album (secundal harmony, faint hints of bitonality, Bartok’s axis theory, modulation, etc…) create musical displacements.
I find it hard to describe this album in terms of genre, though I don’t mean to imply it’s something ground breaking, even if something like “Ambient Vaporwave” is used to describe it, I don’t consider it to be neither ambient or vaporwave, though I recognize that genre labels are pragmatically useful. And then again, the intention of the author is of questionable importance.
On a more personal note, I just lost a job and my country’s economy is unstable and deteriorating, so I’m looking to migrate but it’s expensive, so if you can I would really truly appreciate any amount you can pay for this album. Thank you.
I recommend listening on headphones. I hope you enjoy it.
