Submariner - by CHYMES

Description YT

I have been working on this video for WEEKS and not for any reason that matters. Basically there's lots and lots and lots of layers. Originally I wanted to release the track 6 years ago over a stationary video of me recording the 2-Story Reef Wall at Stephen Birch Aquarium in San Diego. I was just going to let the lyrics lazily waterfall down the track.

But SIX YEARS later, I thought I should make 18319283 million layers of words. It's not even a long song. It took like 5 minutes to render. The problem is, because I am Mr. Adultman Busy Guy, I could spend upwards of 20-30 minutes at any given time to sit down and squeeze in some more words.

I don't know how parents, full time workers with a modicum of family and social life get ANY CONTENT CREATION DONE. Y'all are crazy.

Anyway, here's Submariner. It was a single off of my Collaboration Album with Cherax Destructor (CXDR) and I called 'Chymes' and I really enjoyed the composition of the entire track from Cherax's haunting music to just the theme of being underwater.

Metaphorically, psychologically the idea of the infinite unknown Ocean which can spark real fear (Thalassophobia) or can really be related to just the deep unknowns in life. Commitment, Opportunities, just leaving your comfort zone. This song tries to touch on that cold but refreshing yet disorienting feeling of the weight of being submerged and dealing with that discomfort.

Some drown. Others swim. Others become Submariners and the Ocean becomes their playground.

If you enjoyed the song, please comment and share with those who you think would also enjoy it. I won't put in those algorithm gimmes like "Smash that button, hit that bell blah blah blah" but if you like it and it's meaningful to you, write me what is YOUR Ocean. Where did you have to learn to face your great unknown?

With love... Rhyme Flow
