#TBT | Clams Casino - I'm God

Clams Casino’s vibe has always caught my ear, but I didn’t fall in love until I heard “I’m God”, released way back in 2011.

Some of you might recognize the purely angelic track “I’m God” by Clams Casino, but I like to think of it as a hidden wonder. I first heard the track five years ago, and ever since then it has been one of my favorite go-to tracks. Creator and embodier of Clams Casino himself, Michael Volpe, has since then released so much music including featured artists popular in modern-day music such as Vince Staples and A$AP Rocky.

“I’m God” starts off with the distant, echoing voice that slowly grows louder, “How did you know? It’s what I’ve always wanted… Could never have too many of these“. The track begins to blossom like a time-lapse of a growing flower, the stem grows up similar to the gentle vocals at the beginning. I imagine tons of flowers blooming as the vocals fade out and the unexpected, blissful drop of beautiful bass, drums, and snares all congregate towards one another.

The flow of “I’m God” never fails to calm me down and bring peace to my ears.

Although not including many lyrics, there is a presence of soothing vocals throughout its entirety. I am able to play this track in any setting, and I always receive positive feedback about how soothing yet vibe provoking it tends to be. If you’re in need of something that gets you your feels, makes you feel empowered, and rejuvenates your soul all in one, then you better give “I’m God” a listen as soon as possible.

Better yet, if you’re going to Hard Summer this weekend, go see Clams Casino LIVE at the Purple Stage at 7:05 pm on Saturday. I’ll see you there!

Clams Casino – I’m God – Lyrics

How did you know?
It’s what I always wanted
Could never have had too many of these
Well you, quit kicking me under the table
I’m trying; will somebody make her shut up about it?
Can we settle down please?

Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here

It’s what…
of these

Bite tongue
Deep breaths
