Following up 2019's releases "Two" and "Count to Five", Bedroom, aka Noah Kittinger presents a first listen to the immersive meditative and moody wonder "Gulf". Having gifted the world throughout the 2010s with releases like the EPToys, the album Grow and the Bloom EP; Kittinger’s latest works dive deeper into the candid waters of calm reflective pools of thought and sentiment that resonate like a lucid beach dream playing out on the stage of the unconscious’s eye.

Accompanied by a video filmed at an NYC anime convention by Parker Stallworth; the imaginative and intimate elements of "Gulf" are allowed to run wild in a sea of cosplayers, comic books, games and other assorted curios. Noah's lyrics on the nature of memory, notions of home, the places traveled and the people that have made an impact swell and swirl like heartfelt convection cycles that stirs the spirit and being. Bedroom expertly blends components of nostalgia with insightful measures on how the passage of time effects aspects of emotion and perspective in a gentle calm delivery that feels like awaking to shifting tides of waves crashing majestically across pebbles, exotic rocks and silky sands. The corresponding visual from Stallworth captured on Super 8 provides an absurd, yet decidedly joyous, venue for the Bedroom sound to dwell like a fanatic convention attendee taking a shared stroll down memory lane — while unpacking what it all means and what it all ever meant to begin with in the first place.

Noah Kittinger of Bedroom shared the reflections on the inception of “Gulf” and more:

This song is sort of a reflection on the last year, nearing the end of 2019, I was questioning a few things. The video was done by a good friend of mine, Parker, he had this Super 8 camera and we thought it’d be cool for him to shoot random stuff at an anime convention up in NYC.

Bedroom’s new single “Gulf” is available now everywhere.
