Crayon came from a very personal place. I wrote it for my son, and that gave the song its center from the start. There was nothing to hide behind. I just had to find a way to say it.
It was different for another reason too: I sang it myself. I’m not a singer, so the voice came from a different place, closer to what the song needed than to any idea of performance. In this case, the truth of the tone mattered more than anything else.
That ended up shaping the whole character of the track. Crayon moves slowly, leaves space, and holds a very specific feeling without pushing it too hard. I wanted the song to stay there, steady, without becoming obvious.
The video also helped take that a little further. I worked on it with Agustín Cavadini, who collaborated with me on the direction, camera, lighting, and the visual shape of the story. His eye was important in finding images that could stay close to the song and carry the same tone.
That’s why Crayon still feels like a separate piece inside Inside the Lab. Not because of how it was made, but because of where it came from.
