Coming of Age, by Ed Herbers

Coming of Age

by Ed Herbers

supported by

Chris Hobbs An easy to digest, intelligent ambient release brimming with thoughtful optimism and measured introspection.
Despite it's instrumental nature and concept of a fictional film, I've always had the feeling there's something especially personal that underpins it all... Favorite track: Sublimation.

about

I was thinking recently about how so many coming of age movies (especially modern ones) follow a sort of "nighttime odyssey" structure, in which the protagonist wanders all night through the city and stays up until morning, encountering life-changing experiences along the way (going to a party, a long drive, encountering a new love or new friend, etc.). "Coming of Age" was written with those kinds of scenes in mind, a fictional soundtrack for this kind of movie -- Instrumental songs laced with nostalgia, covering themes of loneliness, angst, and finding yourself.

This album feels like my most mature and developed sound to-date, marking a sort of "coming of age" moment for me as a musician. I'm really proud of how these songs turned out; I hope you like them too!
