An atmospheric love lullaby, 'Ocean' is a metaphor for intimacy in its simplest nature. At times, it can be very giving and embracing, but at other times, terrifyingly unpredictable with millions of possibilities. Each of the production choice is meant to intensify the intimate feeling of the song, from the hypnotic guitar loops, sparse minimalistic synths, down the the very last sighs in the vocal takes. The sound of crashing waves is present throughout the song and is very much an instrument that ties the song altogether. The last part of the song is done in Indonesian to add a personal touch and a nod of respect and love to my mother land. I hope this song can provide tranquility to everyone in the midst of today's constant anxiety.
