Sleep

Sleep

The idea to write a dance song that feels like a lullaby was interesting to me because usually the time we enjoy dance music is when we are wide awake, dancing trough the night and not lying in bed. But sometimes we dare closing our eyes on a full dance floor and it’s only ourselves and the music. We know that the others are around us but they feel more like a safe, warm blanket. We start sleepwalking or „sleepdancing“ and we can see flashes of colors. When I was younger I used to experiment a lot with lucid dreaming, which can be disturbing. Sometimes it can be difficult to differentiate what’s a dream and what’s not. But it can also show you how endless our brains capacities and creativity are. That lucid dreaming can free our mind. That dreaming and being awake should not be seen as antipodes but rather two qualities of our mind that we can learn to connect and combine. To dream our lives as a way to live our dreams.
