the Concept behind Ontem
A journey through introspection involving looking at past experiences, exploring beliefs and emotions, and considering one’s values and goals.
It begins with the birth of an introspective thought and its visual journey and transformation, representing the process of looking inward and gaining new understandings and insights.
It also shows the introspection process as a seemly endless building and then as a city until we reach the deep inside, representing the idea that introspection is a continuous process that leads to personal growth and change, and the individual is never done growing and evolving.
the Music
Ontem is the second song from Turvos’ second album Humores and it’s an instrumental mixture of electronic and black metal guitars. It was recorded on our Lisbon home studio in January 2015.
