Influenced by Vampire Weekend, Paul Simon, Fela Kuti, Steve Reich, Talking Heads. After spending five years in a Zen monastery in Kyoto, Fielding Bell returned to the world and landed in a tiny apartment in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. He works part-time in a rare bookstore to pay rent. His songs, composed on a pawn-shop Ibanez guitar, are sharp, rhythmic field notes from a silent man learning to navigate the loudest city on Earth.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The card machine glowed red at the Key Food on McGuinness.
The 10 p.m. January air, a witness.
You catalogued the contents for return: the milk, the rice, the yuzu.
Felt the structural failure in the framework of your shoe.

[Chorus]
(Sung by a different, distant vocalist)
Just a floor plan for the kindness,
a blueprint you can't read.

[Verse 2]
She was behind you, tired eyes, a coat that smelled of ozone.
She just smiled and said, "Looks like you needed this more," in a low tone.
You walked the three blocks back to your fourth-floor walk-up door,
plastic bag handles biting grooves into your palm, raw.

[Chorus]
(Sung by a different, distant vocalist)
Just a floor plan for the kindness,
a blueprint you can't read.

[Bridge]
Five years you practiced letting go of what you knew,
but non-attachment's just a theory 'til it's gifted to you.

[Chorus]
(Sung by a different, distant vocalist)
Just a floor plan for the kindness,
a blueprint you can't read.

[Outro]
The threshold of the doorframe feels wider than before.
