Sharing with you one of my favorite songs and a constant source of inspiration for me musically. Christian Löffler describes his music as "connected by a gloomy spirit, which is minted by a warm sincerity" and I have to agree. Over the years his music has consistently delivered the melancholy in ways that are perfectly suited to my ears. On Blind, which was my first introduction to him, a playful mallet progression is melded with vague but longing vocals and icey pads. It's simple and timeless and when I listen to it I always find myself mining it for inspiration and walking away with something new.
