Her only solace was listening to the &#8216;morning music&#8217; and feeling a sense of calm in the chaos.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I grew up listening to metal shredders like John Petrucci and Buckethead, and I draw a lot of inspiration from metal; this song feels rooted in my background of music as I was growing up. The rest of the song just sort of kept writing itself as I went on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The song&#8217;s ending is MUKI&#8217;s favourite part. &#8220;In the recording we did the guitars and vocals first and added percussions on the drums, and Josh Barber (my producer) said &#8216;there&#8217;s drums throughout the song, but THIS is when the real drums come in, and that was the outro&#8217;, and it is my absolute favourite part of the song. The sweet escape, the explosion, catharsis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Set to drop 3 June, MUKI&#8217;s &#8216;Trampoline EP&#8217; features four songs that thematically deal with wellbeing. &#8220;&#8216;Trampoline EP&#8217; is very rooted in mental health and uses my own real-life experience experiences to narrate issues that I have dealt with in my life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The four songs touch on &#8216;heartbreak&#8217;, &#8216;identity&#8217;, &#8216;frustration&#8217; and &#8216;anxiety&#8217; \u2013 all with which I have a very close relationship. &#8216;Trampoline EP&#8217; is literally about the ups and downs, give and take \u2013 balance. It&#8217;s also very linked to my own childhood, and childhood nostalgia is a very big theme.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These songs helped me actualise a version of myself I am happy with, and I will forever be grateful to them, and also everyone who supports independent musicians and gives us the hope and strength to carry on and keep writing and singing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DXqC3fIAbu6\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source scenestr.com.au \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next instalment of his debut EP &#8216;Trampoline EP&#8217;, Melbourne-based artist MUKI returns with a beautiful alt-folk song, &#8216;Morning Music&#8217;, that weaves itself deep into your emotional core.
