IT’S HERE!! Happy Friday everyone, and thanks to @offlatchpress for releasing my first EP for this project. I’m so grateful to have their support to put this album into the world. This album would also not have been possible without so many people, mainly @lightxmyfire , @ahrenfield , and @troyxeverett , and I am so humbled to have so many incredible people and collaborators in my life. Check out the album on Bandcamp today for Bandcamp Friday!! Link in the bio! #newmusic #electronica #cello #singer #composer #dccreates #mdmusic #dcmusic #eprelease #bandcamp #bandcampfriday

Announcing a new album available today by Elijah Thomas @elijahj.thomas ! Elijah's vision was to create a work for free download that, in his words, "engage[s] in exercise that activates the inactive, and is a place of simply being for all. To just exist. To have intention to remove intention, and exist/coexist." We are honored to be a part of his project.
You can download the album for free at the link in our bio.
@offlatchpress released their first zine— and in it you’ll find my smallest crankie yet + my version of a folk song I first heard sung by West Virginians Dr. Pat Gainer and ‘Uncle’ Frank Kennedy. ✨ Big thanks to @annafronczak , Tiziano, @federicoforla , & Leah for bringing it to life! Please go check out @offlatchpress for the full vid & all the other artists’ work ✨

Posted @withregram • @offlatchpress IT. IS. HERE. Today is the day! The first edition of our Zine is here! You can purchase the Zine via our link in bio. We have physical copies or a digital edition for as little as $1. We really hope you'll give it a look. The artists that contributed to this have been nothing short of exceptional and we are flabbergasted by the breadth of work they brought.

Artist Spotlight:
We're so excited to present Elijah Thomas's (@elijahj.thomas ) piece "Pharoah" on the Zine which is being released tomorrow! This track off of the album "enuff music vol. 1" which is being released through this platform on Dec. 11! We can't wait for you to listen.
Elijah J. Thomas (he/him/his), a Black Philadelphia-born and Harlem-based windist, multi-instrumentalist, educator and composer, began his musical journey at a very young age under the direction of educator John Zisk. A graduate of Temple University, Elijah holds a M.M. in Music Education and a B.M in Jazz Arranging & Composition from the Esther Boyer College of Music and Dance (with an instrumental concentration in flute and saxophone performance). Elijah has studied woodwind performance and improvisation with Dick Oatts, Tim Warfield, Jr. and Walter Bell, as well as composition/orchestration with Kevin Rodgers, Dr. Cynthia Folio, Dr. Maurice Wright and Dr. Norman David. As an educator, Elijah has held numerous teaching positions across Philadelphia and New York City with Temple University Music Prep; Settlement Music School; Tune Up Philly (of the Philadelphia Youth Orchestra); Education Through Music, Inc; and BASIS Independent Schools. Additionally he is an avid composer, and creates and outputs what he calls “enuff music”: music intent for Black healing, spirituality, and selflessness. Elijah has two full-length projects Diversity and The Unity of Sound released with his former group The NeW Quintet (available online), and a release Our Search with his ensemble Social Music Collective available for free listening on Bandcamp.
