I Didn't Mean to Haunt You

I Didn't Mean to Haunt You is the third studio album by the American musician Quadeca, released on November 10, 2022, through DeadAir Records and AWAL. Following his second album From Me to You in 2021, Quadeca came up with the concept for I Didn't Mean to Haunt You and contacted DeadAir, offering them to release his new album. Inspired by numerous musicians and music genres, it is a concept album written in the sounds of folktronica. Its concept revolves around a ghost in a purgatory-like state, defying typical expectations of the afterlife. Quadeca decided to keep the songs minimal to avoid overcomplicating the music, allowing the listener to connect with the album's character's journey. The album was promoted by two singles, "Born Yesterday" and "Tell Me a Joke". It was positively received by publications; the online music critic Anthony Fantano considered "Born Yesterday" one of the best songs of 2022.
