I stumbled upon the original version of pure imagination one day while scrolling through TikTok and I knew then and there that I had to cover this. I immediately stopped everything that I was doing and started working on the project. After sending the first version into a group chat Miles from Asunder sent me a mp3 file called “Tom” with no context. Turns out he built some ideas around my initial idea and I thought ‘yup that’s exactly what I had imagined for this project’ and we got to work. Almost a year after countless sessions with Miles and Habib, my girlfriend Aylin then recorded the vocals for this project and that’s how ‘pure imagination’ came to be. My initial Idea was inspired by those nostalgic liminal space pictures with the intent of making a song that makes you feel nostalgic for a time you never had.” – Tom Apex
