We’ve got some exciting news to share about a killer track called “Just A Story” by Some Distant Memory. This epic 12-minute musical journey is part of their “Reflections” album that dropped in June 2023, and let me tell you, it’s making waves in the indie music scene.
First off, let’s talk about the mastermind behind Some Distant Memory. Jasper Ian Albrecht, the creative force from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, has been pouring his heart and soul into this project. It’s mostly a solo gig, but he’s got some pretty cool fictional animated bandmates, including a mascot named Nora and other characters from their music videos. This unique twist on the typical band setup is sure to pique your interest!
Now, onto the star of the show – “Just A Story.” This track is the grand finale of the “Reflections” album (Part 1), following four other solid tracks. At 12 minutes and 21 seconds long, it’s an immersive experience that takes you on a sonic adventure. It’s got this vibe that would be perfect for gaming. You know those atmospheric tracks that really set the mood while you’re deep in a dungeon or exploring an open world? Yeah, it’s giving off those vibes.
But here’s where things get really exciting. The music video for “Just A Story” is making serious waves in the film festival circuit. It recently snagged the Best Music Video award at the Eastern Europe Film Festival in July 2024! That’s right, this bad boy is turning heads internationally. The interesting thing is that the video is still a work in progress, which makes the win even more impressive. Imagine what it’ll be like when it’s fully polished.
Jasper isn’t just stopping at music, though. He’s weaving an intricate web of creativity that extends beyond the tunes. There’s this blog story called “Divination’s Destiny” that’s tied into the Some Distant Memory universe. It’s described as a “narrative mosaic pieced together by destiny itself,” and apparently, Chapter 17 is where things really heat up with non-stop action, satire, and social commentary. Talk about multimedia storytelling.
What’s really cool about Some Distant Memory is how Jasper approaches his craft. He mentioned that the “Reflections” album has had more time and work poured into it than any of his previous projects. He’s not afraid to revise and perfect his sound, always aiming to maintain the band’s sonic identity while pushing the boundaries with experimentation. It’s that kind of dedication that sets artists apart, you know?
