Singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Tom Meikle, known by his artist moniker Mappe Of shares airy and ethereal track “Happiness In The Singularity,” striking a delicate balance between energetic and introspective across each captivating note.
Reflecting upon the idea of legacy in the digital age, the track blends echoing beats and soulful strings for an emotive listening experience that feels vibrant and melancholic all at once.
Speaking of the inspiration behind the track, he says, "We’re in this strange moment in history where we’ve witnessed the beginning of a feasibly infinite legacy, where hundreds of years from now, someone could download our digital records and get a decent idea of who we were as people. Comparing that to hundreds of years prior, we really know very little about these historical figures we hold in such high regard, in terms of their actual personalities, the way they carried themselves, the subtleties that define us. I often find myself feeling like our collective obsession with legacy is meaningless, once we’re gone, we’re gone, but at the same time, there is something beautiful in the preservation of the idea of people.”
Having first emerged with his layered, and expansive self-produced project A Northern Star, A Perfect Stone, Mappe Of quickly established a versatile soundscape that breaks down the boundaries of genre. Now, emerging after a long hiatus, Mappe Of is all set to continue his journey of musical exploration.
