my newest set....shake some.

When I set out to make this set my intention was to focus on having fun and to leave the telling of a deliberate story for the pen and notebook ; to just surrender to the music and let it take me where it wanted to and not overthink the story. In doing that, upon listening to the finished product, I certainly found a reflection of where things are for me the past few weeks : Life keeps on moving...Even when a train comes through it on a track that was unknown and wipes out a peaceful landscape...life keeps moving. There are other times that it's smooth and easy and the transitions are hardly noticeable. Either way we always seem to reacclimate for another change...hopefully to have a stronger roots for the next storm/train/transition/phase....whatever you like to imagine it as.

I hope you'll find it danceable and enjoy yourself while you listen. Isn't that what life's about? May the transitions be smoother in my music and in life going forward. <3

taken and derailed on the fast track

this is more of a composition than a danceable set, although a fair amount of the music is danceable , it's more on the heady side. 

it's been over a year since i put anything out, so here you go.
this work/vision/sound has been taking root in my mind for some years, but this is really about my past 4 months...and moving into a new phase of life. 

deep in/on a spiritual journey. reintegrating with newly realized wisdom. continuing to examine wisdom and question it. friendships evolving into new spaces. desire. a crazy and heartbreaking election. allowing the world to disturb my peace. childhood wounds. snapping. snapping back. finding myself to have expanded. realizing the power. navigating life from the helm of my ship.

........much of  of this happening all at once.

so much is paradoxical.

is it our astrological propensity that these cycles reflect our own personal universes? it is merely mirroring? the bridge between science and how the consciousness of my faith spills into every moment of my life....i often remember and forget this throughout my days and feel the defeat when i'm off track....it feels so far from who i am and then i always have gift of come back into alignment with the higher energies once i find my grace and the ground. 

i put my heart into this work and i hope that you will give it a listen and be open to where this takes you. it's a little like being in my skin and in my mind and looking out when i listen.....which is a bit trippy to put out to the world....but here my story of life from mercury retrograde : mercury retrograde in sf, my home. <3

canticle beats. like eating a pomegranate. coexistence. sharing space in balance. like a play. layers. duality & nonduality. in and out of focus. sounds of angels. heavy and light handed. multidimensional. house. classical ballet. ancient. dance. esoteric. existential. metaphysical. audio 3-d. textured. change. painting. building. creating. revisiting. akashic records.
