REQUIEM is an art piece about a traumatic break up, morphed into an abstract interpolation of layered metaphors, heartbreaking scenes, and teeming walls of sound in a 9-track compilation of indie electronic, indie pop, & multiple other genres of hypnotizing music.

On track track 1, “WBF.zip”, the listener is immediately immersed into DONTPANIC’s most fond memories with his past girlfriend, featuring a memory at the Texas State Fair, as well as a memory lying in bed obsessing over each other. They are then transported into a conversation with the master computer.

The computer explains that the listener is about to enter a simulation in order to cure the negative emotions that have been experienced since the separation. The file being installed, the “Well-Being File”, is being installed in order to condition the listener’s emotions and artificially prevent any negative impact from the fallout of the relationship.

The rest of the album is a fantastical roller coaster of an emotional battle, fighting through hills and valleys of the worst experiences post-breakup. Every song is packed with real world events, metaphors, and hand-crafted music from the mind of DONTPANIC.
