about

In a post-pandemic era where employee well-being is in the spotlight, corporations often turn to wellbeing platforms, presenting them as evidence of their concern for their employees. However, what these platforms usually offer is a trivial and gamified approach to a surface-level "care" without meaningful change.
Beneath this facade lies the disregard for addressing systemic workplace stressors and root causes of burnout, while presenting a bright picture to the external market: essentially, wellbeing-washing.

This album depicts MindSculpt, a (not so) fictional wellbeing platform like those that some of you may encounter in your work life.

The sound of this album originates from a retro game shop in Akihabara in the spring of 2023 when, purely driven by inspiration, I decided to buy an unknown PS1 game. That game opened another gateway in my music journey, allowing me to approach new unexplored sonic spaces.

Songs composed using:
- Beat Planet Music on a PlayStation 1 (tracks 2, 6, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
- Depth on a PlayStation 1 (all other tracks)
FX and voice samples added in post.

The most special and heartfelt mention must go to the PlayStation, which has been embedded in my creativity since I was a kid and that I wanted to celebrate for its 30th birthday.
