Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ✧∘* ✧･ﾟ INTERVIEW

with desiree blooms ♡¸.•' PITCHFORK

♡ We are loving this new album of yours! Can you tell us a bit about creating this album, like what went into it and your thought process behind it?

Sooo I made this album like I made my other two, with Ableton and my Elektron Monomachine Synthesizer! People always wonder why I don't really like, switch it up, but really both of those things have everything I need, though I'm always recording new samples. And my thought process? Um, a few things went down in my life when I made the second half, which is why some of the songs sound a bit more 'discordant' in comparison to the others. I'll let you decide which came after and which came before, but I feel like most of the songs are centered around peeling the layers of love piece by piece and dealing with loss in the process ♡.

♡ Are you referring to those articles posted by Distinct Magazine at the beginning of June? Sorry if that's too upfront of a question.

Damn, you're really getting to it fast, haha. Kinda, yeah. It's not uncommon for artists in the industry to make music in an attempt to help them cope with things, and that's definitely been a process of mine. I kinda shifted the focus from mourning my dad to mourning lost relationships as a whole with the lyrics, which is why it takes kind of a romantic feel in some of the songs and centers around longing. A nostalgic type of feel, but I took a lot of my experiences as a whole and put it into this- but the darker sounding beats were definitely made because of that devastating event, those came before the lyrics. Does that make sense?

♡ Kinda, yeah. Sorry to hear about your loss, Desiree. What drives you to put such raw metaphors and emotion in songs while accompanying them with club-like beats?

Thank you, it's okay. Going out to raves and nightclubs seems a bit like it's just for a good time, but in my experience emotions flow in those flashing lights, even if you don't want them to. I consider my music to be like an acid-bath club because my emotions run free through my songs just like emotions do on the dance floor. When you listen to music in clubs it's usually like, surface-level absorption at first- but if you find a song you're really liking and you go home and listen to it again, usually, it has a deeper meaning than what meets your ears at first.

♡ This is your first album signed onto Teravolt, are you adjusting to Hoenn well? What led you to join the independent label?

Yes! I'm loving Hoenn- it's so much different than Kalos, and the summer heat is WILD. But everyone here seems to be so close-knit, it's like connections here mean so much more than connections overseas. And Teravolt? I met Callan Young at a charity mixer and got that offer, it was so good that I had to take it. I'm not going to go too much into detail about that last part, but I will forever be grateful to Callan and Teravolt as a whole, it's given me so many opportunities with my music. You have them to thank for this album's release~"

♡ Nice. What inspired the name 'Shimmering Butterfly'? Did you see a Vivillon flying about one morning?

That's so funny, it just kinda came to me. Maybe it was the feeling of butterflies with the change of scenery, maybe more. Maybe it's a metaphor for fluttering love, even if the lifespan for wild insects is rather short. That's for you to decide as the listener!

♡ Fluttering love? Have you found anyone that causes that feeling for you here in Hoenn?

You're pushing it, Mr. Radioman. Haha.

♡ Okay, okay. In one of your songs, it has a message kinda like 'you don't care about anyone'. Care to elaborate on that?

Oh, you mean 'Softpretty'? I kind of took a character on when I wrote the lyrics of that song. It was kinda like; you know when you've had too much substance at a party and you're just kinda floating there, dancing around without a care in the world? It was a bit like that, the lyrics are simple but that was one of my most thought-out beats on the album. Kinda more so an electronic feature.

♡ Ooh, I get it now! Now that we're on songs, what inspired 'Us Ephemeral'? It doesn't have that much of a lovey feel like the others do.

My silly little spiritual journey to enlightenment, like the sun after a vicious storm. People think you have to change when you delve into introspection, but I feel personally like it's an alteration of a mindset rather than a flat change. Like poisonous food that has to be prepared just right to be consumed, and when it's right, it's delicious.

♡ What do you do when you go to festivals or clubs and hear your own songs? Do the emotions take over?

I dance, of course! And not necessarily, it depends on the day for sure.

♡ Haha, of course. Well, last question; do you see yourself touring in tandem with this album release?

Follow my social media accounts for updates~ Thank you for the amazing interview~! ♡
