Released 2020-01-03

A Month In The Life is my first album under the Disd alias. This is a much more somber, experimental, and emotional kind of music that I didn't feel fit under the Wers name. Originally, this album was a Wers album but it was moved over in mid 2021. A few people even downloaded it while it was a Wers album, so hopefully they've changed their metadata accordingly..

The album is inspired by C418's BAM project from years ago. He saught to create a new song every Wednesday, even if he didn't have the time. I too, wanted to create music with a time constraint, so I settled on thirty songs in thirty days. One song was to be made every day and I wasn't allowed to touch any of them afterwards. Additionally, if I ever missed a day, I would at some point have to make up for it so I could ensure I had my thirty songs. This challenge spanned the month of August, 2019. By the end, I had my 30 finished songs despite me missing several days during the challenge. Most of the songs were shitty, but some were actually pretty cool. I never planned to do anything with these songs. They were basically just to see if I could do it, and I just set them aside in some folder for a few months. Eventually, I decided to pick out the best ones, fix up any glaring mistakes, add a few additional songs to round out the mix, change a couple embarassing names, and then call it complete. After that I sat on it for a few more months because I was having second thoughts on releasing it. In the end I obviously decided to release it.

Originally created as just a dumb challenge, this album grew to be so much more. It means a lot to me and I hope you can get as much meaning out of it as I do. Through all it's flaws this album has a lot of heart and it tells of a part of my life I felt worth describing. I don't expect a lot of people to like this album honestly. I made it mainly just for me but I still wanted to share it.

Every song on the album was created specifically *for* the album, apart from Crystalline which was made about a year prior to the rest and never had a good enough home.

Memory Sequence 1 was one of my first times making drone music and I think it turned out fairly well. Like most of my best songs, it was made partially by accident..

Objects In Closer Than / Mirror Are They Appear convienently round out the album by being similar enough and exceedingly strange. They both utilize the Korg Volca FM and the titles are derrived from something I saw during the peak of the time period this album is about. A bookend.

Sundust was originally the opening track, and it was the first song I made for the original project. After the whole album was done, I had doubts about this sound being the intro. Instead, I made a new song specifically designed to be the intro, and semi-randomly moved this one towards the end.

The eleven-minute, Absence, was originally three songs that I stitched together for tracklist brevity, and because long songs are cool.

Cuft is easily my favorite track on the album. It's so simple and yet, has so much to say.

Penge was created in one live take. This is just a cute little piano song to close out the album.
