Growing up in this world, I found my refuge in nature. Lost among trees, resting in the sounds of rivers and brooks, forgetting about everything except the beauty of life surrounding me.

Nature reflected back something deep within myself that I had lost touch with: the perennial joy that is the foundation of existence. 

I received the name Purl for the music that was flowing through me, as a tribute to the sounds of nature that had reminded me of the unimpeded flow; the essence of life. 

My intention with Purl is to let our true nature be felt and expressed through patterns of sound.

Doing covers every now and then. They're not pitch corrected or edited in any way, so if you're allergic to poor sound quality, flat singing and voice cracks, you probably should't spent too much time here

I'm uploading stuff here mainly so I won't lose it if and/or when my laptop crashes. Poor judgement has me clicking on many links I shouldn't be clicking, so it's only a matter of time, really.

Heathered Pearls is Polish-born, Michigan-raised, New York-based artist and producer Jakub Alexander, whose music career was deeply rooted before ever releasing his own. Curator for Tycho's ISO50 blog, co-founder of the Moodgadget label, and former A&R at Ghostly International, Alexander has been entrenched in the industry since 2002. He was first introduced to the power of ambient music by his mother at an early age, discovered techno as a teenager living in the Detroit area, and gradually learned to create his own vision of the genres.

Since his 2012 debut as Heathered Pearls, Alexander has constructed art — music, objects, installations, performances — as a way of re-imagining fragments of his past and mapping ideas for his future. He sees imagery and narrative framework as fluid components to his craft. Alexander’s first album, Loyal, mimicked the hypnotic motions of ocean waves at night, offering melodic, loop-based ambient music as a tribute to the tasteful influence of his mother and aunt. The second Heathered Pearls album, Body Complex, found inspiration from comfort, imperfection, and visions of interior architecture, transforming Loyal's soft textures into driving 4/4 figures, glacial tone drifts, and starry synth plateaus. His 2017 EP, Detroit, MI 1997 - 2001, reflected on a formative era through ephemeral dance music. The third Heathered Pearls full-length, Cast, returns to moodier loop formats joined by the distinctly new presence of the spoken word. The move mirrors the multitudes of its namesake: collaborators comprise a cast, healing in the bind of a cast, complex emotions and the shadows they cast.

Independent instrumental music from the woods of Norway

In the ’90s, a move to the UK brought Lateral Movement into the heart of a vibrant music culture, where he explored a wide range of genres, from free jazz to indietronica. Returning to Portugal meant leaving behind that diversity, which led him to focus on supporting alternative music scenes and connecting with others who shared similar values. Over time, this turned into a personal journey of discovering and sharing music. Today, his passion lies in the deeper, hypnotic sides of techno, where ambience and atmosphere take the lead.
