The Architect
The Story
James and Kuu Sound joined forces to write a song for James’ latest book writing project “The Book of Unfinished Feelings”. After a really fascinating chat about emotions and music, James and Kuu swapped a few musical ideas back and forth before landing a shared passion for re-imaging a song that James had written many years prior. It quickly became apparent that the synergy between these two musicians was to create something wholly unexpected, giving rise to a sound that was neither entirely Kuu, nor James, but something new and incredibly emotive. James describes the introduction of Kuu’s vocals as like a key unlocking a whole new identity and presence for the track.* "The Architect” is a harrowing journey into the darkest of emotions, counterbalanced with the beauty of lived experienced, nestling somewhere between chaos and serenity. The track is dark yet uplifting and hopeful. The core concept originally agreed upon by both Kuu Sound and James was that the track should meet people where they are. This composition is dedicated to all those precious souls who have felt to the depths of their being and returned to the surface with newfound understanding and compassion.* “James’ project has been such an inspiring one. His work is both thought-provoking and carries great emotional depth relating to the journey of life and self-discovery. On top of this, he carries a greatly empowering and positive energy. It was an honor to work on his song and add my own touch to an already amazing piece. I encourage everyone to check out his book when it comes out and I can’t wait to read it myself.” Kuu Sound
