Oh yeah, I also just want to add the insight on this second edition of my ISIJK + Me series here, got helped by Copilot for the words.

This second year felt different. The pieces got longer, the emotions heavier. I started the EP with "7924 (a day before my day)", a quiet reflection before my birthday. It’s just 37 seconds, but it holds a lot. That moment before turning a year older always makes me think about where I’ve been and where I’m heading.

"30924 (threed)" was built as a minuet with trio. That’s why I called it ‘threed’. There are no lyrics, just notes, because the ISIJK + Me series is meant to speak through sound alone. It’s my way of letting the music carry the emotion without words getting in the way...for now.

Then there’s "17325 (Waltz for NDC)". NDC is a chronotope I keep returning to. It’s a place, a memory, a feeling. You’ll find it mentioned in "cycling remains" too. This waltz is for that space in my heart that NDC occupies. It’s nostalgic, maybe even a little bittersweet.

The last track, "241224 (Thirdly Harmonized)", is unfinished. I left it that way on purpose, unfortunately, so I only got a half score. After the emotional rupture (summarized in "cycling remains"), I couldn’t bring myself to complete it. It’s raw, unresolved, and maybe that’s okay. Not everything needs closure.
