In 2023, I spent some time living above the Arctic Circle off the northern coast of Norway. Living in isolation on a island no more then 2km in radius, I spend my days collecting field recordings, composing new music, taking photographs, reading and writing. The purpose of the project was to capture images and sounds of the landscape to create a audio/visual experience that transforms the viewer/listener on their own meditative journey inward - 'Solar Image' is the first sonic incantation of a new audio/visual body of work. 

For this track, I have invited Dutch DJ, Producer and a label owner Rambadu to interpret my field recordings and images to create a rework of 'Solar Image' titled 'Solar Image (Rambadu Thermohaline Circulation)' referring to the natural process when sea ice forms in the polar regions, leaving behind salt that makes the surrounding water saltier and denser. This denser water sinks, creating a current that moves slowly through the ocean. Thermohaline circulation (THC) is a large-scale ocean current system that moves water and heat, and is a vital part of the global carbon dioxide and nutrient cycles

"Influenced by the forces of nature, Rambadu celebrates the universal connection between beings and their surroundings. 

In recent years, he has researched the energetic powers and healing properties of sound, diving deep into the literature to better understand our inner and outer worlds.

Singing bowls, percussion, and various acoustic instruments are blended with hardware devices while modulating field recordings to create a sensual dance, taking you further into the sonic realms."

Lover of various types of electronic music, as well as many other genres. Here to help share great music from artists from around the world, and hopefully give them more exposure for their hard work in creating these melodic sounds, grooves, and moods.
~When we listen to music that moves us, the dopaminergic circuitry of the brain is activated, which opens the mind to wonder and exploration. In this bodily state of musical awe, we often tear up and get the chills, those embodied signs of merging with others to face mysteries and the unknown… Music breaks down the boundaries between self and other and can unite us in feelings of awe… When we listen to music with others, the great rhythms of our bodies — heartbeat, breathing, hormonal fluctuations, sexual cycles, bodily motion — once separate, merge into a synchronized pattern. We sense that we are part of something larger, a community, a pattern of energy, an idea of the times — or what we might call the sacred. ~ Dacher Keltner
