Saccade EP by Dan Jose

Note: This is my first time putting out music publicly. All purchases will go to the S.F. Bay Area Chapter of the National Laywers Guild who are providing legal support to arrested protestors as well as providing police monitors for the protests to document police infringements against protestors' civil rights. They also provide free legal services for those organisers being monitored by the F.B.I.

About the EP:

Saccade: a quick, simultaneous movement of both eyes between two or more phases of fixation.

I started this project in Early March when I was recovering in self-quarantine after contracting the Rona. While isolated, a good friend challenged me to make 19 tracks. So I started. This was before lockdown even began in the U.K. Fast forward 3 months here and here we are.

This is an EP of selected tracks from my upcoming mixtape/lp Saccade. all the songs are a sort of quarantine time capsule. It's a soundscape of what it's like trying to process a fat fucking mashup of emotions ranging from intense confusion, anger, tiredness, contradiction, despondency, humour, anxiety, fear, boredom, hope, all the way to loneliness and depression.

Saccade is a reference to our eyes rapidly darting around computer and phone screens while we endlessly inhale social media feeds on our phones and computers while trying to process them before the next second's harrowing scroll.
