This is
the fourth release of The Protagonist.
The album code TRCM stands
for "Theoretically
Recovered
Corrupt
Memories)
This album code is used in the six parts (and an additional
seventh) of this series
about struggling to recover the rest of his nostalgic
memories digitally. (CD1 - CD7)
about the album:
The fourth release by The Protagonist is a direct follow up
to "we'll all wish to go back
in time", and it showcases seventy two corrupted memories.
It's the ambient sound
of Eray's nostalgic memories between 2017 and 2018, but they
failed to preserve their
true meaning as time went on. Instead of focusing on the
past, this album focuses on
the rejection of the present day. A person that's still
mentally stuck in the past, and
denying that life isn't like how it used to be. A release
with tracks purged from emotion,
with only a few intact memories appearing from a digital
audio fog of a hopeless mind.
background:
After I made "we'll all
wish to go back in time", I was thinking about quitting
making music
because I ran out of
ideas. In February of 2023, my friend Keremblox teached me
how to
make my own website
using Neocities and Frontpage 2003. I made a website for The
Protagonist and this got
me interested in making music again. I came up with the idea
for this album when one
night,I was listening to a long mix of vaporwave and lofi
songs
I used to listen way
back in 2017-2018. I got sad because these memories mean so
much to me and I
imagined how The Protagonist would interpret these memories
from
the mind of a
person who's denying that life isn't like how it used to be.
When you
hang on to your memories
so much, their true meaning and emotion fades away.
