DJ Socrates Beautiful elegant composition.. deep groove and solid production reminiscent of Massive Attack. Swirling trumpet, looping guitar and warm vocals taking you on a trip into a lush dream you did not yet know you wanted to have. Can't wait for Mai Ki's future tracks.

about

- moondrops is a walk in the neighborhood, a way to stay grounded for daydreamers -

lyrics

conform to the languages we speak, i would
read it all in magazines of
sweet sorrow

there was a man with golden teeth who
sold all his money and bought some new
coins of freedom

i could fly to the moon
that's where i wanna be

i got a crush while i dyed my hair
the smell of colors fill the air i'm
sitting in

she holds a shell to her ear
did you hear rivers lakes and ponds
reflecting our ages

i could fly to the moon
that's where i wanna be

hold me tight
i will let you know
how many years are ahead of us

can't be! When i look at your name
i feel constellations under my skin
moving

somewhere

i could fly to the moon
that's where i wanna be

a big thanks to friends and family supporting me in my moondrops journey. Extra thanks to my sister Fee who arranged most backing vocals and encouraged me to jump over my own shadow. To Jonas Fonn who shared a lot of his time and musical insight. To Jorinde Raps and Pepijn Grimmelikhuizen for their musical input at the early phase of arranging. To the dearest Frederik Petzoldt, who inspires me a lot in music and in life.. and who can put necessary dots on i's . And finally, thanks to the places where I strolled and daydreamed endless miles and where inspiration popped up in unforeseen corners.
