Come take a trip to the vast reaches of outer space with insanely talented producers Moon Lotus and Eyetrip as they bring forth their newest EP, The Moontrip. Combining their musical sound to bring forth a combination of nostalgia fueled melodic bass music, these 4 tunes carry the right amount of heavy bass lines with celestial melodies for an out of this world EP design. The track that we bring you today off this EP, “If Only For A Little While” pushes the boundaries of what we have to to know from both of these artists, combining both sounds into one to guide us on this otherworldly journey. This track not only captures the essence the ethereal vibe the entire EP brings, but its whompy bassline paired expertly with a downtempo soundscape makes for a unique listening experience that you should not be sleeping on. Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “If Only For A Little While” and the rest of The Moontrip EP, a certified bop.
“Conceptually, this EP tells the story of personal discovery and dealing with the feeling of always ‘yearning for more. It is an EP dedicated to all of those who feel like they are always caught up in the search for ‘home’, but never realizing that home is created within us all along. In many ways, ‘The Moontrip’ represents the path one walks to find one’s own safe haven which at times can be scary as it is beautiful. We sincerely hope this EP finds you well as you traverse along your own pathways home. Thank you for walking this path alongside us .”

- If you could go back in time and start over given what you have learned in your career so far, what changes and approaches would you have done differently?
Moon Lotus:
There’s a couple of things actually, I wish I would’ve had more confidence from the very beginning and truly learned how to not care about what people think. I think learning to trust that inner vision and bringing your own story to the table is the biggest thing artists need to focus on; the rest is all just noise. Also, choosing to align yourself and your vision with those who share a similar value of the same things will naturally introduce you to the right spaces and places you need to be in. All you need to do is focus on your own path and craft.
Eyetrip:
I would’ve started music way earlier in life. I was always so apprehensive about learning something as daunting as music production, but once I started I knew immediately that this is my passion in life. I always think “Man, what if I would’ve started when I was like 16” and kinda imagine the skills I would have by this stage in my life. I only started producing 2 or so years ago and have learned SO much, its crazy to think how much I would have learned if I was doing this for 10 + years. I guess I’ll be there someday though haha.
- Is there a message you would like to portray through your music, and if so, what would it be?
Moon Lotus:
My music has always been about giving back the love that I have received. I think sharing a space of healing and growth amongst my friends and family is my number one priority as a musician. I would not be where I am today without the community around me and this project is built off a foundation of gratitude for all of those who have guided me. Fundamentally, the project tells the story of rebirth through the divine feminine and her intuition, but broadly it is about the journey one takes to grow a ‘lotus’ garden within; A safe-haven from the world around us.
Eyetrip:
I try to add some sort of experience or emotion I feel to every track that I produce as a way to express myself and to put something out there that someone might resonate with. I don’t know if I have a specific message, but I hope people can relate to the storytelling I try to portray in each track. Music is healing and I hope my music can be something that people can use to get them through a tough time or help them find a moment of solace in this crazy world we live in.
