Slower on the Stairs / Late August

by Vanta Lux

A single about family and the passing of time: a father on the stairs, an evening that won't go dark.

Tracks

  1. 1. Dad's Slower on the StairsDad is slower on the stairs and I wait at the top. I barely sang it; it didn't need more.tender deep house, ambient house3:40
  2. 2. Late August, Slow LightThe evening won't go dark and the air is warm on the street. I let the pads sit as long as the light does.romantic deep house, balearic-leaning2:45

Liner notes

Two quiet songs I couldn't fit anywhere else. One is about waiting at the top of the stairs for someone who's slower than he used to be. The other is about a late-August evening that refuses to end. I put them together because they are the same feeling from two sides.
