Track one on KŌAN, opener of KŌAN A (March 18, 2022), full LP September 9, 2022. Luke solo on a spatial, headphone-built EP. Glasse Factory called it experimental funk, ambient layers tipping into alt-rock guitar and then an indie-pop-funk anthem. Radio premiere: @thedropwithdanno hosted a full-hour guest session on GFN (98.7 Gwangju · 93.7 Yeosu, South Korea) with @thedamyanghouse, world premiere of Think About It on February 25, 2022 (podcast replay), three weeks before KŌAN A dropped; CHAI production discussed on air · Instagram recap (Feb 27) · Spotify guest playlist · screenshot on Photos. The hook works like Don’t Worry on Big Hug, a command that fails on contact: don’t think I’m not thinking ‘bout it runs eight times, and saying it makes you do it.
Underneath the funk is a 2022 dread stack, NFTs and the end of days and should I procreate or just use my hand? The bridge condenses the record’s title, Schrödinger’s cat read as Zen paradox: is Schrödinger alive? well yes and no, a koan in disguise. Identity comes on loan, and if time doesn’t exist we’re all simultaneously eternal.
It runs into SHIAWASE NO IMI and then Keep Calm Atomic Bomb (KŌAN essay): paradox jokes, happiness-pop, atomic dread. Pairs with 無門関 and What Makes You You on Zen and identity.
Written, performed, and mixed by Luke Francis Walton. Mastered by Riley Knapp. Artwork by Grizzard Graphics.
Lyrics
Internet of things What a thing, man I'll make an NFT Be a rich man Might be the end of days In my lifespan Should I procreate Or just use my hand? Does anybody know a thing Does anybody really matter Is anybody listening probably Not not not not Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Is Schrödinger alive? Well yes and no A koan in disguise A particle And my identity I have on loan But if time don't exist Then we're all simultaneously Eternal Does anybody know a thing Does anybody really matter Is anybody listening probably Not not not not Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Don't think I'm not thinking 'bout it Think about it
