Creation is Creation, out February 25th on Gravitas Recordings, is a philosophical inquiry regarding the alchemy of creativity. Inspired by nature, Somatoast makes use of the natural world to serve technical, musical purposes. Seeds pods make shakers and icicles are a percussive ensemble. This electro-acoustic fusion spans six original tracks and four remixes– marking another unique development in Somatoast’s ever-evolving sound.

Tapping in Boyd Hill introduces the album with its sweeping aural environments and grounding tapping that begins the story of Creation is Creation, which is that human creativity is the same force of all creation. The tapping heard in the track was recorded live in Boyd Hill Nature Preserve in St. Petersburg, Florida. Dawn embraces the texture of a seed shaker found in Zilker Park in Austin, Texas. By letting the naturally found sounds do the talking, Dawn comes off with a simplified yet refined sound design. Namesake of the album, Creation is Creation is a jazzy approach into the essence of this album. Featuring expansive atmospheres partnered with piano riffs and inspiring lyrics, Creation is Creation dives deep into exploration of the universe that resides all around us.

An organic reprieve in the middle of the album, Kokoa features distinct usage of primitive and empowering vocals before segwaying into Icicle that was inspired from the Texas Freeze in early 2021 with lush guitar lines, rippling breakdowns and grounding bass. Lastly, Ooh Yeah is an experimental glitchy departure from the rest of the album, highlighting resounding soundscapes underneath bouncing plucks. As a bonus, the album rounds out with remixes from Lapa, Edamame, Skysia and Kaya Project.

Ebb and Flow are a doubleheader written with the aim of creating something that sounded both beautiful and apocalyptic. There's also a lot of contrast between organic and electronic - with cello, piano, and hand drums featuring heavily in both songs, as well as an oud in "Ebb"

Taste unfolds, with layers to discover, it ebbs and flows, sometimes delicate and sometimes bold. The bass and rhythm provide a meditative core around which the melodic elements dance, combing in an alternative electronic song that works for focus, dance, or exploration.

Itona presents ‘a distant memory’ - an EP that represents what Itona is all about, with stunning bathing soundscapes and subtle percussive pulses perfectly complementing its meditative melodic and harmonic phrasing - all housed within an aesthetic realm of pure tranquility.

Come and take a trip down memory lane with Itona, one that will be ultimately restorative and last long in your mind’s eye.
