The song opens up with beautifully strummed acoustic guitars set on a bed of lush strings. Accompanied by Christian’s stunning and perfect vocals, they carry the song in a haunting, enticing way that will strike you at your very core. Each piece of the song is like a hidden gem; the chorus takes you away with a soft yet powerful vibe that will get inside your head in the best way possible. He whisks you away with his composition, almost like he’s singing to you…and he is. Mourning Coffee’s music is emotive and filled with lush ambience and airy melodies
Accompanied by a vibrant music video, Mourning Coffee further enhances the spirit of “Gemini I,” which makes it an interesting and intricate piece on a whole new level.
Mourning Coffee’s ability to induce strong emotions across piece of music is a testament to his compositional talents. Offering a glimmer of what is to follow, we now look forward to more releases from Mourning Coffee slated in the coming months.
ARTIST QUOTE
“Gemini’s archetype is known as The Twins, therefore I created ‘Gemini I’ & ‘Gemini II’. There is no container big enough for all the different selves we hold. Both songs are the same yet expressed differently, which felt fitting since Gemini governs communication and connection. Both touch on these themes heavily, as the protagonist gets lost in an exchange of words with someone new. Even before meeting them, he’s attracted to their energy. Given Gemini’s element is air, both versions express a lightness musically, and much like air picks up, both get more intense as the relationship develops. While ‘Gemini I’ keeps things more intimate like a secret, ‘Gemini II’ allows itself to be more wild and free.”
