“'Modern Love' completes the EP as an intricate musical piece weaving in and out of complex rhythms. There is even a beatless ambient mix that shows Subb-an has more strings to his bow. We are always keen to push artists out of their comfort zone and really show the world what they are capable of.” WorldShowsArtistPiecesModernComfortCapableComplexesMusicalRhythmZoneStringsBowsComfort ZoneIntricateWeavingAmbientModern Love Author:Subb-an
“Don't talk anybody, don't come near! Can't you see the fish might hear?

“The central idea of string theory is quite straightforward. If you examine any piece of matter ever more finely, at first you'll find molecules, atoms, sub-atomic particles. Probe the smaller particles, you'll find something else, a tiny vibrating filament of energy, a little tiny vibrating string.” IfsFirstsLittlesIdeasMatterEnergyPiecesTheoryTinyStringsAtomsParticlesStraightforwardMoleculesString Theory Author:Brian Greene
“For life is a fire burning along a piece of string--or is it a fuse to a powder keg which we call God?--and the string is what we don't know, our Ignorance, and the trail of ash, which, if a gust of wind does not come, keeps the structure of the string, is History, man's Knowledge, but it is dead, and when the fire has burned up all the string, then man's Knowledge will be equal to God's Knowledge and there won't be any fire, which is Life. Or if the string leads to a powder keg, then there will be a terrific blast of fire, and even the trail of ash will be blown completely away.” IfsKnowsMenDoeLife IsFirePiecesIgnoranceWindEqualStructureBurningStringsBurnedAshesTrailsTerrificBlastPowderFuseFire BurningKegs Book:All the King's Men Source: All the King's Men

“Maybe instead of strings it's stories things are made of, an infinite number of tiny vibrating stories; once upon a time they all were part of one big giant superstory, except it got broken up into a jillion different pieces, that's why no story on its own makes any sense, and so what you have to do in a life is try and weave it back together, my story into your story, our stories into all the other people's we know, until you've got something that to God or whoever might look like a letter, or even a whole word.” PeopleKnowsTryingLooksMadeDifferentWholeStoriesBigsMightTogetherLife IsNumbersPiecesBrokenLettersInfiniteTinyGiantsStringsOnce Upon A TimeBack TogetherBroken Up Author:Paul Murray
“I don't know that I make a big distinction between the big pieces and the little pieces, because I don't experience them in that way.
