Content warning: Severe health issues, detailed descriptions

This is a bit of an unusual upload. I've prepared this for week 29 (yip) and then didn't manage to render and upload because I was having severe back pain and high fever. In the end, this turned into almost 10 weeks of hospitalisation in three different hospitals because of a botched procedure that turned a standard gall bladder removal into several emergency surgeries, various weeks of intensive care and more or less a lost summer. I was very hopeful this year to get a somewhat clean record on weeklybeats, but turns out, sometimes just surviving is all that matters for a while.

I'm back home now for two weeks and slowly started using my computer again. Today I opened up Ableton and found this track. Technically, I worked on it a bit today, so I finished it this week and I hope the circumstances make it alright to upload it for this week. To me it's a view into the "before". I wasn't very happy with the track back then, but then again, I was already quite sick and I am not super happy with it now, but it has significance.

I hope I can deliver new tracks from now on for the rest of the year, even though I am still quite awkward with the computer (and life in general).
