Background and recording

edit

According to Ng, the title of the album came from him wanting to contemplate and reflect on old memories, from his desire to catalog past experiences, "I think it started from a point of wanting to catalog my experience and my life and the things that kind of, you know, you have these kinds of moments or memories that just burn into your brain and stick with you and wanting to catalog that.", Ng said.[3]. The album itself is about accepting the highs and lows of life and pushing the boundaries of music.[4]

The second single "Balling", Ng sings about the loss of friends and contemplates the idea of not being there for the people you love.[5]
