Album out Today!
How fitting that this album release aligns with the โfireballโ
splashdown landing of Artemis II - their mission sounded like what I sought to discover through the sonic transportation of this project - testing deep space systems felt from the power of music.
Co-creating this music with
@nicolas__snyder has been an incredible journey and honor, truly a cosmic collaboration that left us in awe of non verbal communication and deep listening in the space of real time composition.
Most of these songs were completed in one session, sometimes one take.
Our journey began at a performance of mine in a tunnel high up in Angeles Forrest (๐๐ฝ
@earth__poems ) and continued through voice lessons for over a year. It was our voices in harmony that loudly hinted we should be making music. The beautiful Soma Terra synth helped further guide the way.
I am so grateful to Nic for bringing me back to my roots - drama, lyrics, melodies, rhythms, my ancestors, nature, calls of the wild, and The Microphone.
I hope this music find its way into your hearts and imaginations. ๐๐ฝโค๏ธ
