the monochrome disc
this is my favorite album by wowaka. all of the songs can be found on his 2011 album, unhappy refrain but the monochrome disc has my favorite instrumentals. it's a shame that the cds for it are so difficult to get. my favorite song from it is tenohira, which i kind of avoid looking at the meaning of, though it feels very applicable to me right now. i'm honestly shocked that in less than a month it'll mark 3 years since wowaka passed away. i remember finding out 20 minutes after it was announced, and just sobbing. it's very rare that i react to death by crying at all, as usually my brain kind of dissociates but something about it just hit very hard for me. if there's an afterlife i really hope he's doing well. i remember the day that he passed, his name trended #1 worldwide on twitter. it was shocking for me to see, but it really amazes me how far his songs have reached. i don't think there's a single person on earth who couldn't relate to a wowaka song.
