Paper Motion by Paper Motion
We think music is the greatest of all art forms. With its undeniably temporary nature, we feel it is the perfect reflection of the very banal, but nevertheless inescapable truth we face everyday. All must go. The experience of living as a tiny flash of light between two periods of eternal darkness. In music, we explore the sadness in feeling joy, and joy in feeling sadness this brings. We get inspired by the noise around us and the silence within us, and try to make music that moves us when we play it . We hope you feel the same way too. – Paper Motion
The members of the Dutch rockband Paper Motion have been playing for a long time, before the band was officially founded in 2012. They get inspired by the sounds and noises around them, and by the silence within them. This album has been recorded in 352.8 kHz 24-bit DXD format, and it happens to be the very first prog-rock album ever recorded in this resolution!

Paper Motion was born as a sound from outer space. It took the road less travelled and then it found the five musicians who now unite under it’s name.
As the ancient art of origami does out of paper, we make our dragons and flowers out of thin air. We get inspired by the noise around us and the silence within us. Music is our art, and the ether our canvas.
