In Spring 2021, Mike Paradinas (µ-Ziq) and Hannah Davidson (Mrs Jynx) decided to collaborate. Both had recently been dealing with the loss of a parent due to cancer, and fresh from writing Scurlage, Paradinas suggested a collaboration. 'I've always thought Hannah's melodic sensibilities chime well with my own," says Paradinas, "and I've wanted to collaborate with her for a long time.' In a matter of weeks the two collaborated online, sending stems back and forth, each encouraging the other and fitting perfectly together.
Overall the result is an opus of deeply personal moments of grief, depicted in a feeling of serene, misty tranquility that makes it easy to get lost in. Davidson and Paradinas settled on the title 'Secret Garden' due to the melodic vista which unexpectedly opened up before them on the final track. The album truly is a melodic exploration that is so often missed in this genre.
