Im so happy to finally share with you my latest EP 'Idiom' out now on Merkaba Music. Comprising of field recordings taken from south America, South-East Asia and other parts of the world, it takes the listener on a spacious journey through downtempo rhythms, dubby bass and world music with a progressive feel. 
Idiom (meaning a characteristic mode of expression in music or art) delivers textured synthetic and organic instruments, fused together with Rute's iconic broken beat, uplifting, bass laden grooves, provoking imagery of shimmering rivers flowing through the vast rainforests and that which inhabits it. 
While providing a balanced contrast between the dark murky depths and the ethereal light within, Idiom is sure to breathe a captivating atmosphere into the present, inside and out.

Hope you enjoy! <3

“Seeds of Potential” by Shaman’s Dream and Geometrae is a musical landscape where deep bass tones embody the dark soil and undergrowth of life. The delicate nylon string guitar by Eric Llanos, signifies the ultimate moments of enlightenment and self-realization, akin to the sun breaking through the soil and a seed expanding into a plant. 

A new ReWork by Arcturus adds psychedelic bass, trance and downtempo grooves in a sonic alchemy for the new album Home Remixed.

"Soul Echo" draws listeners into a lush, immersive realm of organic soundscapes, rich natural textures, and deeply nourishing bass frequencies. This EP serves as a resonant voice of the Earth itself—a reminder of our roots and a glimpse of what becomes possible when we attune our ears and open our hearts to our planet’s timeless melody. From the primal, pulsating rhythms of the jungle to the mythic tones of ancient Chinese sonic secrets, and the ethereal echoes of mystical, verdant elven forests, this journey is a tapestry of sound. It reveals both the forgotten facets of our planet and whispers of realms not yet seen. Open your eyes in the world of “Soul Echo”

As we move forward in time, irreversible events occur. An endless web of reactions unfolds. Imagination, matter, and spirit guide us through a universe composed of both order and chaos. So little is understood, yet we have come so far. It seems that all there is to know could be laid out as a single, interminable and fluid experience. But beyond this, what is next? 

The Last Question is a culmination of over a year’s experimentation and emotional involvement with sound. This release pushes further into the Sixis project, exposing new worlds and new journeys. Abstract ideas gel together into a precisely streamlined experience, simultaneously leaving a vast expanse up to the listener’s imagination. Each person who engages with the music plays a vital role in constructing its meaning. Thank you for your participation.
