The song is a lo-fi jazz instrumental inspired by the infamous London commute the anti-binary artist Love, Builder of Worlds grew up deeply entrenched in; acutely aware of its adornments of delays, overcrowded platforms, stuffy and sometimes sweltering heat, and of course its ear piercing symphony of screeches. Commuter’s Commitment instead offers itself as a reprieve from the cacophony of chaos that is the commute, and serves the listener as a friendly accompaniment of comfort on those seemingly endless mundane Mondays and the days that follow.
Wake up? Are you awake? The shareholders need their money. Have you woken up yet? Hello?
