In a culture where the constant stream of singles is valued over the full length album, it can be daunting to step out of the direct-to-consumer grind and release a cohesive collection of songs. Producer, guitarist, and electronic musician Luxury Noise, aka Paul Nunn, spent over a year crafting and reworking the songs that would come to form his debut full length album: “forgive yourself”. After moving to the outskirts of town post-pandemic, the Denver-based musician was finally able to take a deep breath and explore new directions in his IDM and vaporwave-inspired music.

The new album does not stray too far from the blissful lo-fi house and cinematic synth work of his previous release "Second Light" but it also incorporates a wider sonic palette of breakbeats and nostalgic instrumentation that pulls from early 2000s IDM, 90s jungle, and 80s house. The euphoric guitar lines of his previous release are replaced with bubbling synth melodies ("feelitmakeit"), wordless pitch-manipulated vocal chops ("Devotional") and saxophone ("onmymind", "Threads"). The melodies are still surrounded by warm pads and reverberating sound design but the rhythms bring a new diversity to twelve song tracklist not seen in his previous work.
