When It Was Temperate
dogbit
To support the release of dogbit’s debut EP second sleep, CIWA created lyric videos to promote the singles.
When It Was Temperate is a song for flight: for the wonder of mechanics and irresistibility of guilt. Up amongst the clouds between London and New York, hedgerows and fields burn into terrifying shapes.
Vocals - Kate Weir
Written/produced by - Ed Maclean
Mixed/mastered by - Kagen

Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloth Of night and light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven by W.B. Yeats, 1899
