sonmi-451 is me and my dimly lit room during the early hours of no particular morning. the rest of the west is asleep but i am awake, barely, and drooped in front of a screen.
sonmi-451 is me on hot barmy summers eve with bass lines falling from speakers.
sonmi-451 is me and a dreary rainy day outside, but noises and drums and sounds are playing inside. the dogs are barking at passers by and who is hoovering now?
sonmi-451 is me strumming away on acoustic guitar in the depths of the night.
sonmi-451 is nothing. it is a name i have given myself, a label for you to recognise me.
i write my tunes and sometimes i like them. you can like them too, up to you.
