Well.

Well crafted well worded songs seem to be difficult to find these days.

But thankfully … pensive thoughtful music never goes out of style.

William Fitzsimmons seems to combine all of the above.

As one commenter suggests after one of his songs:

——-

Ouch. From the tender guitar opening to the gut wrenching first words, this song takes the knife and twists it inside your chest.

The man is regretful, but honestly apologetic.

He knows that he has made a fatal mistake.

To be clear.

This isn’t the type of music to listen to … if you are looking for something to pick you up.

This is thoughtful stuff … soul searching type music.

Now.

Interestingly … while I think the techno rage has gone absurdly berserk in music … his music is a perfect example of how techno could, and probably should, work.

His original versions are languid.

His remix versions are … well … I honestly am not sure how to describe the songs … other than I like them.
