Agony started as something simple.
A challenge.
A 30-second sketch was shared, and the goal was to turn it into a full track.
At first, it was just another creative exercise.
But somewhere along the way, it stopped being that.
When Music Opens Old Wounds
While working on the track, I found myself reconnecting with one of the worst moments of my life.
Not intentionally.
Not artistically.
It just happened.
And because of that, I never managed to fully immerse myself in the process.
I held back.
I protected myself.
The result is something I am only partially satisfied with.
A Shared Experience
Interestingly, I feel more connected to the version created by the other artist.
Maybe because he approached it from the outside.
Maybe because he could push where I couldn’t.
His interpretation captures something raw that I wasn’t able to reach myself.
I will be sharing his video alongside this post.
What Remains
Even if the track is imperfect to me, it reflects something real.
Sometimes creation is not about mastery.
Sometimes it is about surviving the process.
