not my first time
Out March 27, 2026
I’ve been teasing with a clip of this track since last fall. When I asked if you wanted a "hard" or "soft" start to the year, the answer was resoundingly hard, but this track? It lives in the space inbetween. It's not as straightforward to categorize; it’s a dark, pulsing mid-tempo track that lyrically reflects on the confusion and strange reality we live in. Everything's so strange and there's an unsettling feeling of being trapped in a loop. It isn’t my first time. I'm done trying and I'm so tired. It's time to let go. Coming off last month's more straightforward, stompy industrial drive of "Vicious World," this track explores some more of the atmospheric textures of the new release. It’s another preview of what's to come musically for Ayria in 2026, but you still haven't heard the full spectrum of what's to come! It gets both harder and softer than what you've heard so far.
