Artist: LOSTBOYEVSKY

“dear friend, after countless hours of work over the last 14 months, this experiment of an album has finally been released into the world. i feel a strange ambivalence, at once joyful to share the work and hollow, having just let go of this art(ifact) which has incubated within me for so long. there is also the familiar sensation of being so close to the project now that i no longer have more than a vague inkling of its merits. i look forward to listening to it a few months from now with fresh ears.

“‘EXISTENTIAL RISK’ is an attempt to come to terms with a number of rather heavy issues facing humanity, many of which i’ve never heard anyone else address in the rap genre. it is also an urn containing the ashes of past selves and many experiential particles which needed to be ejected from my psyche. thank you, from the bottom of me, for listening to and contemplating this thing i made. i sincerely hope it gives you something. love, jordan” (more description here)

“‘FRAGMENTED’ is an EP about uncertainty, cognitive dissonance, fragmentation of identity, suffering, heartbreak, and the oft-overwhelming process of attempting to synthesize a coherent worldview or life-meaning from the various intermelding oceans of context and culture through which we swim in 2016. it was “born in a nightmare,” as Open Mike Eagle might say.

“if you look closely enough, it’s also probably about love and fun and peace and laughter and joy and all that good stuff. it’s also about whatever you want it to be about, or whatever it seems to be about to you. i put a lot of me-stuff into this artifact, and i hope it gives you something. luv, jordan.”

“a wise man named Dunzo Donalds once told me that “your first songs are your best songs,” which further confirmed an intuition i had felt stirring within me: that i needed to release my earliest raps….

“really though, these songs i recorded in a small studio apartment in Busan, South Korea in late 2013 and early 2014 hold a special place in my heart, and it feels right to me to share them with you all. these glimpses into my psyche were born from a place of pure excitement—from a sense of the world of rap-making as a Narnia of endless possibility.

“as always, i truly hope this music gives you something.

“with love and a jolly belly laugh,
jb”
