Tap the Flow 24 is an ongoing project where I, Ra.be, collaborate with musicians and videographers and in a 24 hour period we conceive of, create, and complete a song and video. 

100% of the proceeds from these projects go to Generosity.org. which is a non-profit / for purpose organization that implements sustainable water systems globally to those in greatest need.

The inspiration for this project came from recognizing that I have a bottomless resource of creativity as well as a wide creative community and together our collective resources can directly benefit our global community’s need for our most precious resource, water.

I strongly believe in extending our resources to the needs of others to thrive as a global community. This ongoing project is a positive step in this direction. 

Thundering Heart ft. Marya Stark & Tyson Leonard

The Story:
This album has changed my life. I wrote these songs over the last several years and really lost myself in its creation. I went to all extents to create something that sounded perfect. Something that would allow me to die in peace upon its creation. In certain cicumstances, I felt as though a force were writing the songs through me or that the songs were already written and I was merely a conduit. I feel as though these tracks are more like the story of my souls journey through the cosmos than an expression of my life.

The Sound:
I've been playing dancefloors for years. I decided to make an album, though, which combined what I learned from bootyshakin beats with the understanding that the CD would also be played in cars, bedrooms, dorms, walkmans, and wherever destiny lead it. It's really a concept album that bridges electronic genres such as Trip-Hop, Breaks, and Drum and Bass with more song/lyric-based elements and ethnic mobility.

My friend, Rigzin, joined me on track 9, HymnalAYA, and sang some of the most beautiful Tibetan chant I've ever heard. This song still has the power to bring tears to my eyes if I'm not careful. Other than that, all of the vocals are mine.

The Artwork:
The artist Darrah Danielle has been my creatrix for two albums now and this is one of her finest works. I often tell people that one of the most important reasons to buy the album is to own the exquisite original collage work. We worked together intimately on this project and a simultaneous vision emerged. I cannot express the gratitude I have for Darrah's creation and its inspiration for the music born of its divine incarnation.

1 Which Side Are You On - Billy Bragg

I spent my Samhain reflecting in the coming cold & turning journaled thoughts into bard-hop.  Written and recorded in a day while watching the leaves change.
