Solsticio en Pátzcuaro

This was recorded on Wednesday night after attending the camp WANT IT! sushi party. The location was "Starfuckers Oasis" which is a set of couches and grass umbrellas along the 3pm deep playa perimeter. It ended up being one of the better places to perform because the groups of people here were seeking the quiet solace that the deep open playa could only provide.

This sound journey weaves the natural soundscape of the Burning Man playa with the sacred releasing energies found during the 'Temple Burn'. I recorded these layers interacting with the soundscape, people, and sites as I watched the sunset and the temple slow set ablaze and return to ash. This is meant as healing gift to all who release loved ones during this ritual.

Recorded at Blackhead point in the Burren, Ireland on July 28, 2014. This was the same beach that I tried to record at on my birthday and fell back with my Halo on my back and put a small dent in the handpan (two notes affected). I came back two weeks later to try to cleanse the negative feelings from damaging the instrument. So this is performed on my Halo Shiraz (minus two notes).

My wife and I were lucky to re-charge in this recently converted church in Mountmellick during a tour of Ireland with the Seattle based Irish/Folk/Punk band "The Bog Hoppers". Our lead singer came from Mountmellick and his Aunt was friends with the new owners of this soon to be Hostel (but wasn't quite finished yet). So, Nichola and I had a church to ourselves (even no staff) for three days. The converted sanitary's acoustics were just perfect. This was one of the highlights of the tour.

There is only slight EQ on this recording. It is all natural reverb with the mic about 7 feet away from the handpan.

Came across a sign for a Japanese garden when driving up to the old Roman fort. We pulled over and after a couple of wrong trails, came across a beautiful hill of stacked rocks and trees with stone steps. Didn't know if this was the spot, but we felt an energy there that called for us to record a song there.

This was the first night recording for the Deep Playa Wonderings 2014 mobile sound art project. I was joined by Caleb Jay Epstein and my father in our trek out to deep playa to the Pachamama Portal Earth Healing Vortex. This installation had amazing sound and geometrical inspiration for the premier song of this project.

Incantation Breath (feat. Ganavya)

After an evening of Salsa and Community making at my parents house with some of their court neighbors, we decided to have an evening outdoor sound meditation to celebrate the connection of community in these quarantine times.

Sharing a beautiful evening of community with my parents neighbors. This song's intention named by Sophia is 'Calm'. She loves bouncing on the suspended chair to give the lights a bouncing effect. We enjoyed her trampoline earlier and that bouncing also inspired me throughout the song. There are many types of calm in our daily lives, lets be thankful for finding calm in those strings of moments.
