Ben Aubergine’s “Spoke For What I Knew” is a quiet revelation—an emotionally layered track that carries the weight of decades in just a few minutes. Written in 1998 and completed years later in his home studio, the song explores the subtle heartbreak of relational asymmetry: the fragile space where one person’s honesty lands with devastating misalignment, and separation becomes the only path forward.
Rooted in its original form but shaped by time, the recording feels timeless, delicate yet resolute, raw yet refined. Aubergine’s performance, arrangement, and mixing are deeply personal, echoing the intimacy of a lived-in memory that never quite faded. The track’s emotional clarity is elevated by mastering from Ruben Cohen at Lurssen Mastering, bringing a polished finish without erasing its vulnerability.
As a singer, multi-instrumentalist, physician, and father returning to music after years of life’s quiet detours, Ben Aubergine brings a perspective that’s rare: honest, unhurried, and deeply human.
“Spoke For What I Knew” isn’t just a song—it’s a reckoning with the past, finally given the voice it always deserved
