01: Theta

Hello friends!  ☯︎

Here's the recording of an ambient set I had the pleasure to play at Harvest Festival 2022 this fall. The gathering took place in a beautiful pine forest in Ontario and has been happening for over 20 years now.  

I would describe this set as Yin energy, a place where the rhythms are less dominant, which allows the storytelling to be experienced in a more calm environnement. It’s one of the most fulfilling moments that I felt in my music journey this year. 

In the sometimes chaotic and noisy world we live in, it feels somehow very healthy and natural to connect with these frequencies that are rooted, zen, earthy yet cosmic. A sonic safe space in which we can be present and breathe. 

Like my yoga teacher would say:  may the benefit of this session be shared with all beings in the world. 

Thank you for listening

Thanks and acknowledgements: 

  I want to acknowledge the recording of this set was done in Burk’s Falls Ontario, on aboriginal land that has been inhabited by Indigenous peoples from the beginning. In particular, we acknowledge the Anishinaabeg territory. 

Thank you to Justin, Angela, Hugues and all the Harvest community for creating a space to share this kind of music as a way to land the festival and ground ourselves. Thank you to the amazing participants who were there to listen and share the space with us! 

Super grateful for all the amazing artists, musicians and composers who created the songs I got to play in this mix. I also really enjoyed meeting Andrew Interchill during that weekend and discovering his amazing ambient performance on the same night.

  I’m thankful for Ashlee for joining me during that weekend and sharing some of those beautiful songs that she collected over the past year. She also took the cover art picture! x

Redenzione

Under Lighthouse's Loving Look

La inspiración de este tema fueron mis dos mascotas, mi perrita Amparito y mi gato Rodolfo. Ellos me conectaron con la gratitud profunda hacia el momento presente y compuse esta canción.
Utilízala para tomarte un momento de agradecimiento por cada instante de esta vida.

El Agradecimiento

I combined the provided samples with voice-fragments and violin-melodies I recorded. While working on the track I had the seaside in mind: Sitting near the sea, hearing the waves, overlooking the ocean, and contemplating life. A fulfilling moment.

We're The Bridge

Sunday Ambient - 34

Inner Peace, World Peace. 24 X OM chants by Johann, overtone singing from Chis, who also weaves his bansuri flute around the OM's and over the atmospheric ambient pads (that includes a Tibetan monk synth :-)). We overdubbed a brief sound journey at the end. 

This was to be a central track for one of our main live yoga music projects, to chant with groups of people for inner transformation, for outer change.
