Developed over three years, this is the largest and most ambitious FlowerGrylz project to date. It was inspired by visions of a Valley Kingdom, where a prophecy speaks of a destined prince who wins the swordfighting championship and pulls the Famed Sword. But the prophecy shatters when the Vash, a foreigner from distant lands, defeats the prince.
This album was made with Ableton Live 12. Sound design was primarily achieved using Serum 2, as well as stock Live plugins. Comb filtering was used extensively to change sound characteristics, and repeatedly freezing and flattening samples.
Every purchase of this album unlocks The Famed Sword (PDF), a companion book with original illustrations and the complete story that brings the music to life. You’ll also receive the high-resolution JPG of the cover art, available only here on Bandcamp.
This album will remain exclusively available on Bandcamp.

A young hidden immigrant is fed up with not belonging where they live. They buy plane tickets home only to arrive in the most unexpected way— crash-landed and helpless. Will they survive as a foreigner in their own country?
As the research project of my final bachelor year, this album focuses on the TCK experience in music. This was done by emphasising narrative, sound design, and the journey of the lead character, Hidden Immigrant.
Featured artists: James Rozzi, DialE, Amelia Rose, Lipmann, and more.
Ableton award for excellence in a computer based composition.

Full-length concept EP creating a whole other universe, exploring the use of VOCALOID V by YAMAHA Corporation. Synthetic singing is often heard in specific vocaloid genres, but this EP attempts to create its own sound, bordering between human and machine.
