"'Homesick' is a song that beautifully captures a classic synthwave ambience with creatively placed restrosynth melodies that put the track on an elegant emotional level. The overall production is well balanced and what definitely gives the song 'that sweet spot' are the delightful tonal melodies and texture of Sean's vocals. MIRRORS obiously benefits from the notable audio production abilites of its creator Sean Goldie, the track feels nicely tweaked and mixed and with a fine amount of effects, specially focusing in the vocal ambience that gives a dreamy and very enjoyable listening experience. You'll need to listen to other MIRRORS tracks as well, great quality that should not be overlooked"

INSIDE THE TRACK: [artist's commentary]

HomeSick is a song I wrote about Loneliness, isolation, and acceptance. I Recorded it That same day in a single Take and then promPtly forgot abOut It for almost six mOnths.
Upon rediscoverY I realized it’s One of my favorite sonGs I’ve ever written.
All of the sounds in It are either old 80s synth emulators Or cUstom sounds of my own design, and the drums are sampled from analog drum machines.

It’s a throwback to a bygone era, both musically and thematically.
