about

In the summer of 2017 we decided to enter the studio for what would be the last studio recording of Aedell Wolff as a band. It is during this period that the song Familiar Now was created.

The foundations for the song were already articulated in the spring of the same year. It is an ode to the massive loss of a nation during the Rwandan Genocide in the late 1990s. 800,000 were killed. A number is just a number but in my family they have a face and a name. This year will be 26 years since the tragedy.
-Hubert Tuyishime

A special thanks to Mattias Steynen for production and mixing. Thank you for welcoming us into your home and working with the utmost care on this issue. Thanks to Hanne Juchtmans for the excellent vocals on the song. As well as playing the cello on the spot. We asked quite a lot in a short time, absolute musical virtuosity.

We hope that everyone is currently healthy and well. Stay indoors and enjoy the infinity of music online. Kind regards, the Aedell Wolff collective.

lyrics

Lost in you, lost in me
Great, great fire gonna give it to you
It's only fair
Picture perfect of the lifeless.
And I know where I've been and I've been here before
Gonna give it to you
Like you give it to me.
it's only fair

Don't you know i want to be
Don't you flee for your tower
Don't you know i wanna know
Don't you know i wanna know

Don't you pretend you weren't there
For i've been here before
Picture-perfect of the lifeless
But you're ancient like a tree
Don't you be afraid of the water
Don't be afraid of the fire


Only god could can save me now, but it's been too long.
Only god could can save me now, but it's been too long.
No surprise you end up here
No surprise you wind up here
And only god can could save me now, but it's been too long
And only god can could save me now, but it's been too long

( musical intermezzo )

(Choir outro)

Give me your life now
But your body is full of blood now
