In Forward Fox’s own words, “at the time I wrote ‘Illusions’, I found myself being intrigued by neurology and physics, more notably to what extent the human brain influences our physical world. Questions about my own reality began to fascinate me and whether reality is a fixed state or a reflection of our own inner consciousness.
This heavily influenced my creative process, with the bassline intentionally ambiguous on where it starts and ends, becoming a sonic metaphor for the uncertainty surrounding our own experiences, inviting listeners to contemplate the boundaries between reality and perception”.
