I have just found out about it today when the algorithm served me this vid 💔. Thank you for sharing your gift with us, Charles. You'll be missed.

RIP Charles. Listening to this album today gives me chills. May the music always find you, wherever you may be.

If anyone dislikes this, it’s because they’re wrong

Charles, tonight I was sitting in by my open window and someone was playing music and the bass was hitting so hard it was shaking my walls and windows. I was really vibing to it so I walked through my neighborhood to find where it was coming from but it seemed like it was coming from the night sky. Turns out you were playing a live concert a few miles away from my house and the sound was bouncing off all the walls. I found you by chance and I love it! Please keep up the amazing work!

Nothing happens by chance bro, always a reason. His music changed my life a lot, even though he’s gone I still connect with him through the music and that’s why he impacted so many people.

So, I discover this man and this body of work today, three days after his passing. I feel blessed and saddened at the same time. Perhaps it was his "To Depart, To Seek". I hope he's enjoying the afterlife. He was taken too soon.

spending my time smoking alone, ill keep my head above water for you. -- CTF does it again.

You’re where music is born.. 💓 Fly high.

Rest easy we love you so much. This music helped me in ways I can’t describe The reason I got into downtempo. The music that kept me going on my bad days while recovering from trauma.. see you on the other side homie.

Listening to this is breaking my heart , it’s like hitting me that I’m only discovering this guys now and he’s passed on and here I am feeling like I’m at the most tricky spot in my life and only this man makes me wanna continue his legacy by embracing this style of music , by showing the world this beautiful masterpiece , RIP young king , you will forever live on people’s hearts , minds , and souls and the way you paved for this sound you innovated , so beautiful . Man I’m heartbroken

Couldn’t have said it better, odd how one thing can lead to another and you and I are both feeling this connection with someone we never knew, and simply having the knowledge that they have passed on it makes it..Strange to say the least. I can feel this music in a different way.

Legends never die. I'll never again feel the anticipation of marking my calendar with the date of your next release, and the absolute fucking bliss that shakes my body and soul as I hear the new sounds you've created for the first time. You were a damn prophet, Charles. The world lost a piece of its soul today.

RIP CHARLES. We love and miss you dearly

Rest in paradise ❤️‍🔥 it was an honor getting to perform with you and share the same space. Your music will live forever 🏵

charles forever. I listen to you every day . I wish I would have gotten to hear you in person. I wouldn't be in the place I am now without your music...my adhd and depression makes my life hard and your music brings back some light into my world and gets me inspired. Thank you for creating these for the world and all of us ❤️ rest in power

I came across CharlesTheFirst a couple months ago and also learned of the news. I never thought to check if there were anymore mixes and so I took a look at his account and found quite a few more. But what's affected me now is to see how much his music has touched so many that have come across to realise the same thing. I never knew him, but I feel like through his music I did, even if just a little bit. We will miss you brother. Bigups to all those who feel the same and those closest to him. Peace and love too all.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 you are my favorite, heartbroken Charles, may you rest In Heaven, U are so loved

The world lost a real one. Thank you for your music, don't know where I'd be without it.

It is crazy how this music triggers the imagination. Like the associations and images my mind creates when listening to this is just to cool and mysterious in a way. RIP buddy

I stopped going to shows, and CharlestheFirst was the only one I still wanted to see. Pretty sad to learn he passed. This album really was a gift, and you can feel the human behind the sounds all throughout. Sounds like he found hope and peace.

Greatest Of All Time - Charles, we miss you so.

RIP King..... You will forever be missed.

RIP CHYNNA. I'LL KEEP MY HEAD ABOVE THE WATER FOR YOU 💐🌌 Thank you so much charles, for hitting the laboratory last year and creating such work of art. Your music holds so much meaning in my life - such inspiration and motivation it brings to my daze. Namaste 🙏

I feel like his music just keeps telling me he didn't wanna go. Like he's mad it happened. I can feel him through every song 😞

KZread alrogithm brought me here. Was blown away by what I heard. Then further blown away by what I read. 25 is too young. RIP.

I just found out Charles passed away. What a tragedy. He was a gift to humanity. He was too young. How unfair, how sad. He was a beacon of beauty and creativity.

RIP KING thank you for leaving us something to remember you by

May Charles Rest In Peace. For those who didn’t know what happened he passed away from his sleep 😔 🕊

Charles I listen and mourn every morning to your music. You were the only guy with the REal ASS TALENT. You made emotions come to life

"To Depart, To Seek" is exactly the kind of jam all Charles' fans truly crave. Yum.

fffffuuuuuuuuuuuccckk dude, I have to find awesome music from the news of the author passing away? It breaks my heart, may you rest in peace.

First time hearing this. Rest in power!

It's simple, I see charlesthefirst I click.

I cant stop crying.........RIP KING

you’re beautiful, thank you for sharing your immaculate glow and love and immense talent with us friend

Heavy hearts weigh for you Charles 😢 RIP

Always such a pleasant surprise nowadays hearing someone play a Charles track at a concert. I'm always down for it. I recently heard someone play Clarity and was bursting with joy!

This album helped me shed the tears that needed to fall. Thank you💚

Love you Charles. Rest in power beautiful soul 🙏

Was in bed about to go to sleep, now i'm so hyped up I have to listen! Thank you Charles ^.^

I look forward to meeting in time and space with you again! Thank you for this release 🙏 👽🔥💞

Mmmmmmm..... appreciate this album so much! See you in paradise my friend!

Completely agree ♡ he is still with us, it just isn't in the physical form as we understand that (and I still can't wrap my mind around how that works), I guess I'm saying, trying to say, his unconscious energy is here. Don't normally comment yet I feel this too. Love and light to you and yours. Do you love LSDream too?

@@urbanskylineproperties6070 I've loved LSDream for quite some time now. He's open about his struggles with addiction, which I can relate to. Its a shame to see how the rave culture has addiction as a stigma attached to it instead of a means to supporting one another through music and community.

Rest in peace CTF you did Djwal Khul proud.
