Eternal Mourning delivers a composition born from a nocturnal vocal memo created during a battle with insomnia, led by Montreal composer and producer Philippe Mourani, and presents “Drums Are Beating My Steps” as an exploration of exhaustion and wakefulness. The project draws clear comparison points to Timber Timbre, The National and Beck’s Sea Change in its approach, and the piece reframes sleeplessness as a compulsive movement rather than a simple account of sleepless nights.
The song was released independently on 23 October 2026 and positions Eternal Mourning within an emotional and formal territory that balances intimate folk narration with larger cinematic arrangements and alternative hues. The release confirms the distinct direction of the project, presenting a chronicle of fatigue and an insistence on forward motion that the composer frames through measured contrast and dramatic tension.
