The Disappearance of Prodigy Pim Stones

I can't help but feel that there is a mystery waiting to be solved I know realistically he probably just doesn't want to be found anymore but I just can't shake the feeling that all of his songs mean something more something secret maybe a puzzle of sorts it's all so intriguing how hauntingly beautiful the music is for the past 2 years there has been a mystery brewing in the back of my mind and I've only now come to peace with the fact that I might never find the answers I'm looking for my investigation began when a song from 2015 popped into my Spotify feed we have it all by Pim [Music] stones for diamonds and gold hey baby I was immediately Obsessed the lyrics perfectly match the story of my novel night shade Academy which I was still working on back then sometimes I'd write for hours with we have it all looping in the background but over time my excitement faded and I was ready to obsess over a new song from pimp Stones I clicked on his Spotify profile expecting a long list of music but all that awaited me was one other title in early 2017 2 years after we have it all Pim Stones released the last one I made as part of the original soundtrack for Teen Wolf I never watched the TV show but apparently the song played during a heartbreaking moment in the eth episode of season 6 and it was also ironically the last song stones made I'm not sure just how much more of this I can bear I try to talk to God but it seems [Music] even this seemed a bit odd to me why would he stop at just two songs especially after achieving such rapid success shouldn't there have been more tracks to follow was the title The one I made purposeful a message to Mark the end of his career as an artist curious for more information I searched for pimp Stones on YouTube for the first time and discovered his music videos for we have it all and the last one I made it was in the comment sections of those videos when things started to get really interesting Pim Stones was a mystery no one seemed to know anything about him some people even theorize that he died there were comments from nearly a decade ago with people begging him to share more music and even today people are still asking what made it so intriguing is that Stones didn't seem to be listening because he wasn't online at all his last post on Instagram was to promote the release of we have it all back in 2015 as I was scrolling through the comments getting up to date on the whole mystery I noticed someone mentioned a song called Neon Lights which I had never heard of before I was still under the impression that Stones only released two songs so I did a quick search on YouTube and discovered Neon Lights which for some reason wasn't posted on pimstone official accounts but on various fan accounts I was in complete shock to find more of his music but it didn't end there neon blood your cross on the Mir drive you through the upon further digging I uncovered that the last one I made wasn't Pim Stone's second song or his third it was actually his fifth or his sixth or probably a much higher number I only know so much but here's what I found him Stones released we have it all as an EP three other songs were included Neon Lights chaos in the jungle and the life we could have had for some reason those three songs are no longer available or associated with any of his official accounts instead they are uploaded by fans who happen to have the audio files saved brussle above us and as all the dark covers our skin rest your head onto my chest I'll tell you story of the life we could have there are quite a few theories behind the unavailability of those three songs most people think that Pim Stones doesn't want them to be heard anymore While others believe there was a conflict between him and put me on it the management company he worked with to release the we haveit all EP by looking through old Reddit threads I was able to estimate that the songs were taken down within one year of the ep's release sometime in 2015 I also discovered that put me on it shut down in 2018 3 years after the release does this have something to do with those three songs becoming unavailable I have no idea we'll probably never find out but of many boys who like to seek Adventure in dangerous toys holding the G ging on theu cage no longer as I read through old articles YouTube comments and Reddit threads I finally came across information about Pim Stones as a person according to a 2015 article from circuit Suite he grew up in England with a Thai and British cultural background and he was training to become a helicopter pilot when he first started making music to get feedback from his friends Stones posted his songs on YouTube and SoundCloud to send them online links it was after discovering that he'd unintentionally grown a fan base of strangers that he started working on his we haveit all EP today these older songs are no longer available on his YouTube and SoundCloud accounts however a mysterious song called take down the bricks found its way to a random YouTube account about 2 months ago and its quality sounds different from the EP I believe it's likely from this earlier period of time when his music was just beginning to spread are beside me when one mile becomes a thousand you are beside me when the walls are just too thick you are beside me to Bricks after reading through this article about pimp Stones I started to ask myself why I was so curious about some stranger who created music that I enjoyed I realized it wasn't just about wanting more songs from him it was about understanding his strange choice to make a bold Splash online and then just jump right out of the pond we live in a world where the internet is a Battleground for attention especially among artists we're told to document our process be active on social media get our work out there maybe Stones does a lot to promote his music behind the scenes in more unconventional ways but I doubt it to me it looks like he simply rejects the pressure to follow the artist rules he gathered this massive fan base and doesn't even bother to provide an explanation behind his absence and honestly there shouldn't be anything wrong with that he doesn't owe any of us music or his presence and it's crazy that him just existing and living his own life has resulted in a widespread internet investigation why is it so difficult for us to wrap our minds around his privacy as I pondered this I discovered a Facebook post from 3 years ago and it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen hello it seems that quite a worried number of you have exercised some impressive detective skills Googling I believe it's called and have found and inquired of my friends and ex-colleagues about me and my well-being and asking if I'm still alive I am very touched and I am indeed alive and well I've just finished reading all the Facebook messages from you guys every one of them so so lovely thank you so much and thank you also for still being curious about new music after what must be about 7 years now of absence I'm making music again and we'll post here when it's ready a bit of patience though poor favore you've waited this long so it's a little longer eh big love to you all Pim this was actually so hilarious ious to me first of all Stones disappeared for 7 years and apparently didn't read any of his messages during that period of time he simply showed up one day and read them in bulk that is seriously op and secondly why did he put Googling in quotes is that term not common knowledge to everyone by now I mean he can't be that old right I don't know maybe Pim Stones is just not online like the rest of us maybe he travels the world as a helicopter pilot fighting crime and making calls on a burner phone once again we'll probably never find out and I really respect that feing in the way they can no longer be rest everyone hold
