Tracklist and notes

1. When You Cry (feat. OFF.BT)

This remix blends soulful vocals with John’s experimental production. Themes of vulnerability and comfort unfold over a chord progression (Dm, Am, Em, C) while IDM‑inspired sound design layers static noise and abstract textures to add emotional depth. The track reimagines an acoustic ballad into a dynamic, genre‑defying experience, perfect for listeners seeking solace and connection.

2. Come Tutte Le Più Belle Cose, Come Le Rose

This piece merges symbolism, atmosphere and minimalism into an intimate soundscape. Built at 66.66 BPM in 3/4 time, it evokes the rhythm of a heartbeat—warm, fragile and hypnotic. The slower tempo nods to downtempo’s gentle pace and atmospheric focus, while its delicate piano motifs recall the beauty and melancholy of red roses.
