From the composer: I wrote "Dharma" because I hope that social media, which has more often been a tool for spreading hate, can fulfill its potential to instead spark a collective awakening. The footage you're seeing (source: Storyblocks) is from the Borobudur Temple Compounds, a Buddhist temple dating back to the 8th and 9th centuries, in central Java, Indonesia. "Dharma" is written for piano using the Lydian scale, which I've heard associated with spiritual ascendance.

From the composer: I can see a cottage along the river, just by the bridge, during a foggy sunrise, as the family inside awakens for another day of the small dramas and quiet beauty that make life worth living. I wrote this piece with that kind of scene in mind, and I hope someone might consider it for the opening credits of a television series.

From the composer: "Don’t Fight the Apple" is about the pursuit of knowledge that isn’t easy to accept at first, but that ultimately brings peace. I wanted the music to feel a little uncomfortable yet intriguing, with the promise of clarity somewhere on the other side. I think of the tedious process of assembling a mandala, which I understand to symbolize the universe and the path to wisdom. I once watched monks create one, grain by grain. It required incredible patience. Then when it was complete, they let it go.

From the composer: The song is meant as a reassuring note-to-self, available to read whenever your feelings set off alarm bells. The note is a reminder that your feelings are not a danger.

From the composer: Writing this piece from along Mirror Lake, I thought of the beautiful summers we've spent in the Adirondacks together as a family. Time goes by quickly. It is paired in theme with another of my pieces, "I Knew You."

From the composer: This piece is about looking back on your life, having truly known another person, and the last breath before venturing on. It is paired in theme with another of my pieces, "Mirror Lake."
