From the artist:

"7 Mile Lake is a lot of things, it's transitional, meditative, pensive, overwhelming, and just the most fun I've had making an album in a long time. “Ibuprofen” was made on a whim one day, I was just chilling at my desk, wondering what I could do, and I thought of maybe just experimenting with multiple euclidean sequencers I had. I could make a constantly shifting and mutating piece of music with them, would easily be light work; what I didn’t expect is one of my personal favorite songs I have ever made. It grooves, it ebbs, it flows, I really like making my songs sound like a glacier carving out a landscape… this song is more like a flow of lava barreling over a forest, or an earthquake ripping the land in two, so much fun to listen to. So much fun to make. Then we slam directly into “Optimist Piece”, which is actually the first song I made for this album! I made it, err, conceptualized the track while moving from Anchorage to Seattle, from the viewpoint of me knowing I will most likely never return home, I will leave everything behind, start anew. Life was extremely difficult for me in Anchorage, it was like a constant veil of sadness, and I realized part of my problem was being in spitting distance to my family. All of these emotions and these feelings being whisked away by the simple fact I moved left me with a sense of hope and optimism I have really never felt before. Wanting to capture those concepts into a song, I wrote “Optimist Piece”. 4 instrument tracks, 4 different bpms, creates this extremely uneasy and impossible to place pulse, eventually degrading into walls of effects and sheer noise. Now onto the monolithic final track, “No one is going to miss me when I’m gone.”, emotions and mental issues do not disappear overnight, no brainer I know. Recorded in one take over an extremely heavily paulstretched, then further mangled guitar demo I made earlier in the year, I’ll let the song speak for itself."
