‘hold fast, it’s gonna be alright’ you said Once we fall, we burn our bridges to the lost but we’ll be just fine Turn of fate, I’m loosening the grip I’ve felt for so long Separate me Hush, you say too much Your conflicting words, they blind my eyes to the rubble at my feet, but I’m seeing straight Turn of fate, I’m loosening the grip I’ve felt for so long Separate me

Fragments 03:38

I see outside your silhouette, 'cause it's all that I know Can't see past the outlines, 'cause I'm too far gone Too far gone I can't help this, (too far gone) it's falling apart

Collapse 04:18
lyrics

Hear the silence breaking The earth’s alive but aching I’ve been counting on a feeling But I fear it’s all but lost Fearing the worst, grasping for lifelines Finding the light adrift, grasping at empty space We’re out of sight and veering out of control The starlights fading and beginning our collapse I’m holding on to atmospheres Passing through without a fight, I’m letting go of this We’re out of sight and veering out of control The starlights fading and beginning our collapse Holding onto atmospheres, all the years seem to free my fears

Escape 03:44

All I see is a haze, it's all backfired Running in search of days, trying to play my hand So high I can feel the breeze, it's all I need So high I can finally see, you're all I need You're all I need Cold stares and narrow minds, blanket over my eyes Calling for endless trails and pockets of dust So high I can feel the breeze, it's all I need So high I can finally see, you're all I need You're all I need

The Wanderer Hold, I’m holding on to failures We try all we can to bleed life dry and save us and I’m bleeding out I’m bleeding out for the last time I fear all the signs are just moments I’m holding on

Alibi 03:55

I’m running away tonight Not wanting to let go, just awaiting the vertigo I’m running away tonight, Not risking the waves, just finding my own space Hear out my alibi I’m just trying to get by I’m leaving it all behind It’s time to let go, let it all unwind Hear out my alibi I’m just trying to get by

Glow 03:37

I hear that sound surround me, it's all I hear Trying to lead us all out towards the light I heard that sound, and I sense the glow And I hear the quiet surround me Hear that sound Somebody save us were falling, and trying to hear that sound It's alight, so bright Somebody save us were falling, and trying to hear that sound It's alight, I sense the glow

One Last Time 04:56

Hear my last words Stumbling in the dark again, with you One last time, i hear you say One last time to show you what I see You fear the cold nights Closing in around the light, with you One last time, i hear you say One last time to show you what I see

The Space Around Us 02:56

Here we are, blind to others Fools chasing the night Fractured hands fixing broken bones Home is all we know A perfect lie bleeds for no one but it sinks right in They tear our worlds, tear all we know apart The earth is all we know

about

‘The cinematic outcrop for what Precept does envelops your ears in an existential relevance of colours, shades, innuendos, and nuance.’ ComeHereFloyd

Based in Leeds, UK, Electronica artist Precept started out making orchestral and ambient music which is featured on films, games and tv shows. Since beginning the solo electronic project, Precept's intriguing ambient electronics have been described as a more esoteric and cerebral alternative to Underworld or Hot Chip.

Citing influences that range from Sohn to Nils Frahm, Precept released 2 EP’s in close succession which showcased a dark and hypnotic electronic sound which also has moments of euphoria and warmth. Precepts debut album ‘The Space Around Us’, all self-written and self-produced, is a real coming of age moment. Featuring a diverse set of tracks from fast-paced electronica in ‘Collapse’ and ‘Fragments’, a truly epic instrumental in ‘Desolation’ to an emotional piano composition in the title track, Precept explains ‘I really wanted to diversify my sound with my debut album and I wasn’t afraid to allow my other influences to shine through.’ The result is an album which showcases his production prowess and musicality, but also an honest and down to earth set of songs which deal with our failures and shortcomings.

Precept continues ‘The album as a whole is challenging both myself and others to make choices based on the world around us, being honest with yourself and being proud of your mistakes. I think it’s really easy to become boxed in and forget the bigger picture. We’re a speck of dust in an expansive universe - we’re all in this together, engulfed by the space around us.’
