Morning Song

Sound Journeys with Anjeline

Hele ng Hangin (demo)

A studio recording of my usual vocal improv, given shape and depth by Kyle Oppenheimer. This was a wedding gift I did for a friend, HK artist Wong Kit Yi. She had previously introduced me to Kyle for a work of hers, so I thought it'd be nice to have him on board to zhuzh up this wedding gift idea for Ali. I sourced the title, Transition Anxiety from listening to something she'd said in one of our conversations. Recorded on September 12 2021 at Chan Friend Studios, HK.

Doors click (demo)

Another excerpt from the loop recording on 21 November 2022 in QC. The looper was acting funny. I followed along anyway and tried to feel like I was singing a kids' song.
