Mac Miller’s Family Shares Bittersweet “Making Swimming & Circles” Footage

The death of Mac Miller still hurts, and many fans find it difficult to listen to his music without feeling a surge of emotions. Especially emotionally-charged projects like Swimming and Circles, albums that found Mac engaging in some of the most personal songwriting of his career. Now, Mac’s family is getting ready to release a double-disc vinyl box sex titled Swimming In Circles, which seems to realize the conceptual throughline Mac originally set out to make. 

Swimming and Circles are a dual body of work, conceived and realized between 2016-2018,” reads a statement on Mac Miller’s YouTube page. “These are some of those moments. Please enjoy.” Those interested in securing themselves a copy can pre-order right here, with the expected ship date listed as December 18th, 2020. In the meantime, Mac’s family has shared some behind-the-scenes footage of the Swimming and Circles studio sessions that took place in Hawaii three years ago. 

 The clip, which runs a little over three and a half minutes, immediately captures Mac in his element — which is to say, surrounded by musical instruments and creative collaborators. His playful sense of humor also gets a chance to shine, and from the look of it, he brought no shortage of laughter to the studio. For those who still miss the late rapper, Mac Miller – Making Swimming & Circles (Hawaii, 2017) is a must-watch — check it out for yourself below. Rest in peace Mac Miller.

Honk Magazine Filter

Singer-songwriter Kieran James delivers a devastating new single with “Part of the Grind,” a track to tackle the tangled emotions behind loss and memory. A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.

Set to delicate instrumentation and achingly sung vocals, “Part of the Grind” is both a lament and an honoring, a means of remembering while addressing the unavoidable cost of time and illness. His voice floats, leaving room for silence and the long pauses that so often come with grief. But in that silence, there is warmth as well, a refusal to let memory be totally extinguished.

Resilience is also implied in the song’s title, a reminder that even in heartbreak, life goes on and holding the memory of someone stays with the rhythm of everyday living. it’s an anthem for anyone who has ever looked on witnessing decline, mixed sorrow with love.

In Kieran James’s “Part of the Grind,” we hear music as well as go behind it. He gives us room feel, to mourn, and to honor. In the process, he turns private pain into something achingly universal, a song for everyone who has either loved or lost.
