Eyen means ?forever? in Japanese (??). Carvajal recorded Eyen Forever in his bedroom in Higashikitazawa, Tokyo, in his spare time between teaching work, during his last year living in Japan. Eli lived in Tokyo for 2 years and 4 months, from April 2022 to August 2024. Eyen Forever is a final diary entry, a grateful farewell. Except on 35-degree days and snowy mornings, he opened the windows during recording. Can you hear Tokyo speak? The rainy season and June typhoons, the cicadas in summer. 'These songs came to me on my bike, on the metro, in my room. I never expect songs to come, but when they do I follow their steps with focus and care until their dance is through. This is what I like to do best. Through joy, loss and trouble, I have my songs. Eyen Forever is dedicated to my twin, Shamaya.' Connection songs that bare the light between us. Open-hearted, wide-eyed and playful, Eli Carvajal writes of lived experience in intimate, intense detail. Blackaby Blackaby is both the surname and musical-moniker of London-based songwriter William Blackaby. Following on from an extensive UK and EU tour opening for Flyte and playing in their band, Blackaby returns with new single ?That Thing You Said?, which has garnered support from BBC6 Music and BBC Introducing alike, being named Em Pilbeam?s Track of the Week on the BBC6 Music Introducing Mixtape. Blackaby writes timeless songs with wit and humour, but most of all warmth, cutting through to the heart of things with his incisive lyrics and beautiful melodies. Not to be missed! FFO: Neil Young, Paul Simon, and great songs
