Astray 03:23

The tide washed away my marks on the sand it swept them like nothing and I shot the flares when I went astray in darkness painting the night sky in red and then fading away it all went unresponded I gathered strength and walked away there’s nothing else that I could do if you chose to leave and look away let it die in silence own it forever and hope it won’t hunt you down (what was, will never, be again)

Motion 03:58

Life, passes by Blurring recollections of a time that seemed brighter than it was how can it stand under siege by the erosion? when the counter never goes back There was a time painted by reflections of a beauty that had me mesmerized lost in the light of your rings, your crypts, your furrows by teal and the gold inside I fell into all the wrong assumptions every time I saw the colour of your eyes I went into something that would never last ‘cause I was flying so high and I thought that I knew you better Everything you said, everything you said was distorted by my own wishful thinking I just didn’t care, I just didn’t care all I wanted was those beautiful eyes I’m the one to blame, I’m the one to blame for my misplaced devotion to someone who was half-way out I fell into all the wrong assumptions every time I saw the colour of your eyes I went into something that would never last ‘cause I was flying so high and I thought that I knew you better I got blinded by all the emotions every time I saw the colour of your eyes I went into something that would never last ‘cause I was flying so high and I thought that I knew you better

Stuck with you 04:24
lyrics

Hold on, I’ve been here before staring at you across the road quietly, hoping you would feel like spending time with me like spending time with me But time passed, and I have learned to choose battles that I know I won’t lose it’s so odd how life can make you change that’s why I looked away that’s why I looked away Maybe I’ve gone crazy but I felt like we had never been apart just one look at you (baby) and I barely make it out alive How long do you think it will last? the sorrow we carry from our past hopping is not a way to live life is not a dream life is not a dream I know, that you expected more but I felt the way I did before I need to let you go and be free that’s all that I can give that’s all that I can give Maybe I’ve gone crazy but I felt like we had never been appart just one look at you (baby) and I barely make it out alive Oooh don’t dishearten if I seem cold and distant too you’re looking for somebody that was here long ago until sadness followed you Oooh don’t look so staggered when silence is all I’ve gotten from you keep your spirit high and we’ll learn to get by ‘cause I’m sure you’ve been here too we learn to get by, yeah we learn to get by You lift me up, you break me down what could have been is just a dream that always brings me sorrows I get so high, then I fall down when I see the life I had with you break-down and melt away, break-down and melt away I’m tired of missing you badly That’s why I looked away, that’s why I looked away ‘cause I cannot pretend I’m cool with you (with you) That’s why I looked away, that’s why I looked away tired of missing you badly (with you) everything has changed, but I still feel the same it breaks me that I have to let you go That’s why I looked away, you moved-on but I’m, still stuck with you looping in my head, looping in my head (with you) I’m stuck with you.

Legend 03:34
lyrics

Tell me something real show me what you’ve got come on lay it right in front me all we have to lose is time ‘cause darling, I could see your tricks and I played along I knew there was much more behind your legend was all that I got Let others assume, then you play but honey, there’s some things your eyes can’t pretend I saw love, it was you, only somebody else and nothing will take that away. Go on lie and scheme it’s the way to get things done I’ll be your backstop, if you need I’ll play my part so you won’t burn but there’s something I want in return I won’t ask you why, I just want you to learn it was true, I was real, there’s no others like me So get it done, just walk away, you’ll always be my sadness Before you go out, before you go out take off the mask and give me one night, just give me one night to see who you are show your true colours you owe me that much when morning comes, you’ll walk away, and I will be your sadness.

Reflection 03:48
lyrics

I don’t stand a chance to make it if I can’t find a way to finally breath far too long I’ve had this feeling being haunted by your luminosity I hear your voice, despite your silence in your absence, fell your gravity everlasting, disappearance took away the better part of me Show me how, cause I can’t fake it you play this game extraordinarily I, can’t hide tonight, you look so good in disguise can’t escape you there it takes all my strength away agonizing, while I’m dreaming rather lose sleep at night than sanity Drink the night away, drink the night away keep on dancing while the jukebox’ swinging fake a smile ‘cause your heart is sinking into misery another lonely dark hole in the wall, ‘till break of dawn Noises dissipate and I’m left with your voice inside my head, so loud and clear to me resonating around here, but it’s only your reflection just a fraction of the thrill that I once felt, when you were near Drink the night away, drink the night away keep on dancing while the jukebox’ swinging fake a smile ‘cause your heart is sinking into misery another lonely dark hole in the wall, ‘till break of dawn Time and time again, I’m thinking are these dreams linked to reality? did you trigger this? have you been thinking about me? are we bound somehow, subconsciously? while we dream.

about

Reset is Munsterlander's first album. This multi-instrumentalist, producer, singer and composer spent the last 10 years drifting through life pursuing pointless things. Tired and disappointed of how meaningless his achievements have been, Munsterlander realized that the only thing that ever made sense in this world, the only thing worth doing, the only thing that will leave a mark, is music.

Reset was self-recorded, self-produced, mixed and mastered by the author in his home studio. This EP is a strong mix between a bursting passion for music-making and the very intimate process of sorting out a past that kept leaking into every artistic composition. In order to 'reset' his mind, Munsterlander confronted ghosts, memories, longings and illusions of times gone by.

Reset is also a celebration of the music and influences that Munsterlander has deeply enjoyed for over 30 years of music addiction. What began as an attempt to blend piano songs with electronic music (in a Randy Newman meets Telefon Tel Aviv type of project), quickly mutated into an exciting process of music production where songs took a life of their own.

Despite the noticeable influence of electronic music throughout the album, Reset includes numerous elements of Skate Punk, 90's pop, R&B, Classic rock, and big-band jazz. The outcome of blending of those types of music results in Munsterlander's sound and an exciting electro-pop album that is heavy on piano, synths, drums and chorus strats.

Finally, Munsterlander is a melomaniac and often listens to music through headphones (while commuting, working, walking the dog, etc.). This EP was mixed and mastered with a similar type of listener in mind, so in order to have a superior listening experience, and to really grasp all the production details of this record, Munsterlander highly recommends to listen with headphones or good speakers (but of course, all you Bandcamp users already know that!!).

Cheers!
