2NDWND, by Rhyphte

2NDWND

by Rhyphte

supported by

Dan Butler From the somewhat grim and brooding tone of "striking distance" to the soaring, hopeful melodies of the title track, 2NDWND is a personal and musical triumph for Rhyphte. Clark's blood, sweat, and tears are present throughout the album's subtext and each song is charged with the vigor and determination of a competent chiptuner. While this is, in many ways, the beginning for Rhyphte, 2NDWND is a decidedly potent debut album. Favorite track: striking distance.

about

This is what I dedicated 2019 to and I'm so excited to share it with you all.

Regarding the title: While this may be my first official release, it is not my first attempt. Between hard disk failures, memory corruption, and crippling episodes of self-doubt, I have been held back from my goals again and again. I'm so glad I never gave up. Nothing is ever going to stop me from doing what I love. I'm more excited than ever for the coming decade, and this album is a testament to what I've been through and what's to come.

Thank you Ceil, Neil, Clover, Dan, Brandon & Erin and all of Chiptune = WIN, as well as the many others who have supported me on this journey. I simply would not be where I am without you. I am forever grateful for the opportunities you all have given me.
