Not enough credit is given to the great non-sugarcoater that is Channa, one who would rather give Siddhartha Gautama truths than deceive him with fantasies and utopias. I thus dedicate my pentatonics to this figure. Perhaps this image captures Siddhartha's realization that another path awaits.

Channa's Lessons...

Welcome to my channel. I was raised in Southeast Asia, mostly Bangkok, before emigrating. With family dispersed around the world, my brother who once resided in Sao Paolo, Brazil, introduced me to bossa nova, samba and forró. Now, in an electronic age, my instrumentals are combined with what I consider to be fusion jazz, imagined in a manner that I hope creates reflective downtempo world music with quieter phrasing and voicing (the venerable Pino Palladino once insightfully observed that we need to give our notes space).  Guitars and basses played, music/art production, along synth and drum programming, were undertaken by yours truly. 

Do visit my youtube official artist channel at https://www.youtube.com/@ayuttaya.ambient to see video footage of some of the compositions. 

Many thank yous for visiting and listening--may you all go with the flow and realize that in spite of this uncertain world within which we are immersed, love still abounds. Your goal is to create, spread, or find this love.
