about

Tobisonics releases his debut solo single, “All These Things” on Friday, March 6th. A 3-minute 30-second dose of alternative pop infused with genre-blending flavors of lo-fi soul and downtempo electronica.

“All These Things” begins as an apparently simple love song, painted in soulful tones and lo-fi beats. The infectious chorus arriving early, “All these things I remember”, perhaps nostalgic for a summer love. But as the track unfolds, a darker truth emerges, one that can not be forgotten nor easily escaped, “Nobody can stop me, I am running”.

Coming to music late in life, having struggled with PTSD/chronic Anxiety/depression for years, Tobi (aka Tobisonics), rediscovered music in his mid-30s.

“I’d played in bands as a teenager, but hadn’t picked my guitar up over 15 years. It’s like the depression drowned out the music in me. Once I started seeing a psychiatrist and taking the anti-depressants, the music just flowed. I couldn’t have stopped it if I’d wanted to.”

“All These Things” explores a difficult subject matter; but remains a compelling piece of contemporary pop, painted in fiercely percussive tones and ear-catching vocal hook.

“I’m pretty open about my depression and anxiety. The reasons that lie beneath, I’m not so open. I guess that’s where the music comes in.”

lyrics

All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember

To catch the moment
We always run
To catch the moment
We always run

All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember

We are kissing we are far (This body)
We are kissing we are far (This body)
We are kissing we are far (This body)
We are kissing we are far (This body)

Nobody can stop me
Nobody can stop me
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
(We are kissing we are far)
All these things I remember
(We are kissing we are far)
All these things I remember

Nobody can stop me I am running
Nobody can stop me I am running

All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember
All these things I remember

Having spent his volatile teenage years in awful/awesome guitar bands; music fell away in Tobi’s 20s, as he wrestled with his mental health. A last roll-of-the-dice appointment with a Psychiatrist in his mid-30s finally led to therapy and medication. Flooded with years of repressed emotions and the songs fell out of him. The slow grind of recovery and music-making evolved together. ... more
