about

16 Dimensions" is my way of imagining what lies beyond black holes, which are sometimes seen as symbols of death or the end of information as we know it. I wanted to contrast the very obvious limits of our senses with the immense possibilities of reality that scientific theories suggest. Imagining how life might continue beyond this finite experience also puts into perspective how we live our lives here. Sometimes it's frustrating to see how we get caught up in our daily and self-centered lives which is why I wrote the lyric "sometimes I can't wait for the melting of the sun so we can be everything, everywhere, all the time" – which I wrote way before seeing the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once but I really like the serendipitous connection. I wanted the song's structure to reflect this possible multiverse and have different parts, layers and sounds appearing throughout. I also can't wait for you to discover the "Hello Black Hole" prelude that will give it even more context on the album.

lyrics

everything is so pretty
I never felt like this
everything is so pretty
I never felt like this
everything is so pretty
I never felt like this
everything is so pretty
I never felt like this
but what does it mean
if I can’t go back
and share this with you

we’ve reached up the upper sky
I think we liquified
do you feel alright?
is this your first time?
I’ve never been so far
I’ve never been so close
to feeling like I did
When I was just a kid
I should of stayed on that Miyazaki high
but nothing really matters now we’re

Life after life
in the 16 dimensions
of the universe
Life is a party
In the 16 dimensions
of the universe

3 dimensional brain
doesn’t even see UV light
So aren’t we so cute trying to make out
trying to make it look like
we are the center of
A place we hardly know
A place we hardly go
sometimes I can’t wait for the melting of the sun
so we can be everything everywhere all the time

(oh this must be)
Life after life
in the 16 dimensions
of the universe
Life is a party
In the 16 dimensions
of the universe

Albert Newton Paris, France

Albert Newton is a Franco-British project created by Paris-based Henry de Montbazon. After releasing his first EP «Bedroom Posters (*Spring)» in 2020, Henry met a quantum researcher and an astrophysicist who opened his eyes to the reality and beauty of the scientific world we live in. These encounters would prove a major inspiration for the writing of his first album (scheduled for early 2024). ... more
