notes: 'I wrote these songs immediately after attending Furality Somna, my second
  VRChat con but first one with a headset, a Meta Quest 3S that I got just a couple
  of weeks before.  Like with Furality Umbra, experiencing Furality Somna''s vast,
  colorful worlds got my creative juices flowing, and I was grabbing whatever free
  moments I could during the con to write down lyrics and record quick drafts that
  would later become the songs on this album.

  Although there''s still influence from beach pop and indie surf bands like boy pablo,
  Swimming Tapes, and Sun Daes, I decided to lean more heavily into bands I have been
  listening to recently like Good Kid, Tipling Rock, and Majak Door.  Good Kid in
  particular inspired me a lot for songs like Eighteen Mile Hike and Lost Inside My
  Head, and I found myself feeling immersed in their rapid-fire, high-energy brand
  of indie rock.

  I really hope that this album captures some of the magic of Furality Somna and lets
  you relive the good times as we wait for next June!

  For fans of: Good Kid, boy pablo, Tipling Rock, Swimming Tapes, Sun Daes, Polite
  Fiction, Majak Door, Two Door Cinema Club, DIIV, Hot Freaks

  Special thanks to Tsuyoto for continuing to go on adventures in VRChat with me that
  inspired a lot of these songs.  I really love not only the creative work that we
  do together on this platform but also just getting to hang out with you and explore.

  Special thanks to Triac for giving me the computer that allowed me to get on VRChat
  in the first place.

  Special thanks to the Furality team and the world they created in Furality Somna
  that inspired me to write and record these songs.

  Special thanks to the Paws On Paper community and everyone in it, some of whom sing
  in "My Dreams Are Real" in the chorus.

  Of course, huge thanks and much love goes to my partner, Denver, who helped a lot
  with mixing advice for these songs. Huge thanks also to my parents who have always
  supported my musical endeavors.
