Signal

Signal is about what you tune to. In a world that is almost entirely noise, attention is the whole game, and the song treats it like one. The signal you send out is the one calling you home.

The concept

Signal and noise is an engineering idea, but it is also a spiritual one. Most of what reaches you is static, other people’s urgency, the feed, the panic. The discipline is choosing the frequency that is actually yours and tuning everything else down until you can hear it.

What it means

I thought for a long time I was calling out, sending the signal somewhere external, waiting for a reply. The turn in this song is realizing the signal was me, echoing back. You are not waiting to be found. You are the frequency, and tuning to it is how you get home.

Where it leaves you

If you have been lost in the noise, scanning every channel but your own, this track is the reminder. The signal you keep sending out is the one pointing you back to yourself.
