This is Letting Go is the debut full-length album from North American artist, Sigrah. Primarily known for his depth and range in sound palettes and musical styles, Sigrah often creates remarkably unique moods and feelings within his music.

Prior to this LP, Sigrah has mostly soldiered in the trenches of the bass music ethos ala halftime Drum & Bass, Jungle, and dubstep, and has seen support along the way from genre figureheads such as Om Unit & Fracture, selectors like The Librarian, and even arena-filling artists such as Bassnectar. This variety of support highlights the breadth and reiterates the fluidity within the Sigrah project in its entirety.

About the LP from Sigrah:
“This record was written over the course of a year’s time in which I quit my job, my wife and I sold or gave away 80% of our belongings, packed the rest into an RV, and began to travel North America full-time. All of these songs were written in different geographic locations, as well as immensely different environments. Up North was written outside of British Columbia near Banff National Park. One Revolution was written in the lush green forest of central Washington state. Bad Habits was written in the tiny town of Marfa, TX after viewing works of the artists Dan Flavin & Donald Judd. They all tend to pull context from their respective environments. Some with dreamy soundscapes, others with harsh elements. 

It’s an honest reflection of what it feels like to go through the process of letting go of something. For me, it was many things. It was letting go of emotions like the fear and anxiety of instability. It was physical things with a sentimental value that I had amassed over the years. Letting go of just about every aspect of your comfortable lifestyle, and completely switching things up was quite the roller coaster, and I like to think I managed to capture the process of what that felt like for me.

During this time I experienced intense levels of isolation and solitude being away from noisy cities and bustling urban cores. Often only accompanied by the environments around me. Each place I spent time alone had its own song to sing. The Pacific Coast sings a very different song than the one heard in the Rocky Mountains, the central plains, or the desert of the southwest. With just a laptop, a pair of headphones, my Moog, and a midi keyboard, I feel like I was able to capture the essence of these environments in a unique way. The way I heard them. That was the most amazing part of the whole journey for me.”

Sigrah - This is Letting Go LP

T"he rarity of the full-form album makes it all that much more special when a producer truly finds their sound and comes through with an intentional, cohesive body of work that deserves the attention of the listener for more than 15 minutes. That's exactly what Booms and Claps favorite Ben Hagris AKA Sigrah has done with "This is Letting Go". Ben has taken an amalgamation of all the ideas, concepts, emotions and sounds that he's touched on over the past several years and transformed them into an impressive body of work that I'm confident will have the replay value we seek from a good album for years to come. Spacey beats, meditative jungle, dance floor bops... Sigrah does it all here.

Today's premiere from the album comes in the form of "Bad Habits", an ethereal masterpiece that sets the tone for the rest of the release well. I'm sure you'll be just as hooked as we were after hearing this one. Settle in, this one's quite the journey. Sigrah's full album drops everywhere on March 12, 2020."

Sigrah - One Revolution [Premiere]

Aufect's Sigrah and Tar affiliate Norfik give us dance floor therapy with their "Alley of Mirrors" single off Sigrah's forthcoming LP 'This is Letting Go.' The journey starts with brooding bass that leads the way to Classic jungle breaks soaring over uplifting euphoric chords as a vocal sample speaks to us about self-reflection. This is Letting Go is the debut full-length album from North American artist, Sigrah. Primarily known for his depth and range in sound palettes and musical styles, Sigrah often creates remarkably unique moods and feelings within his music. 1 part shoe-gaze, 1 part jungle, 1 part
dissonance, and 3 parts energy is the recipe. This record is certainly all of those, and you can truly feel that Sigrah has poured his all into this body of work.
Prior to this LP, Sigrah has mostly soldiered in the trenches of the bass music ethos ala halftime Drum & Bass, Jungle, and dubstep, and has seen support along the way from genre figureheads such as Om Unit & Fracture, selectors like The Librarian, and even arena-fillingartists such as Bassnectar. This variety of support highlights the breadth and reiterates thefluidity within the Sigrah project in its entirety.
