Magic Hour

This track comes from the overlap of beach life and CTO life — morning surf sessions bleeding into architecture reviews. It tackles The title track — magic hour as both the golden hour light and the creative zone state, that window when everything clicks and the impossible becomes real. The lyrics get specific — "I've chased this feeling from the Navy to the code" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The dreampop production matches the energy of the confession. It hits dreamy and transcendent, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.
