4. Rubato Over Ruins

Shiva Shakti Dance is a cinematic piece of music composed by Mason Töryen for the french film Te Voir. This instrumental composition blends emotional strings and evocative piano to portray the moment when the protagonist meets her inner feminine — the Shakti, the sacred creative force within.

The music moves between softness and intensity, symbolizing the dance of Shiva (consciousness) and Shakti (divine feminine energy). It is designed to awaken intuition, inner power, and emotional release.
Perfect for spiritual practices, inner journeying, meditation, ecstatic flow, and conscious movement sessions.

Listeners often describe this track as a portal to the heart, helping them reconnect with sensitivity, tenderness, and spiritual strength.

If you resonate with cinematic music, sacred feminine energy, embodiment, yoga, or ecstatic dance, this piece will guide you deep into your inner world.

Shiva Shakti Dance

A delicate, instrumental piano composition created for moments of respite. Each note was chosen to envelop the listener in peace—soft chords flow slowly, like waves on a lake at dusk. The melody isn't overbearing, but rather subtly guides you through a landscape of inner peace, perfect for meditation, evening relaxation, or simply unwinding after a busy day.


Autumn Night

12k is happy to present the debut release on the label from Argentinian composer Federico Durand who has had a series of amazing releases on labels such as Spekk, Own, and Desire Path. Federico and 12k crossed paths on a tour of Japan together in 2014 where the personal friendships among the artists and the label are such a part of what 12k is about. Sharing music and ideas throughout the tour led to an invite to make an album.

It’s no accident that Federico’s music has a dusty air of nostalgia surrounding it. It has always been a very personal affair. Songs inspired family, local life and the world around him are woven by hand with a selection of very physical instruments. He works like a craftsman, piecing together fragments of sound from cassette recorders, small instruments and loopers and creates music that’s as softspoken as he is. No pretenses, no disguises, just the most honest and down-to-earth music that can be made. Broken melodies spinning from tape reels, the sounds of bells and small found objects being played with care... The music is as beautiful as it is introspective, like a small window of antique glass looking right into Federico’s soul.

In his own words:

“A través del espejo in Spanish means “Through the mirror”. I am fascinated with the experience of putting a mirror in front of another: as a miracle, the image turns in a loop that flows into infinity. Loops in the mirror get less clear with each repetition, the color becomes diffuse and greener. When these loops turn into a lullaby we can enter the other side of the mirror: a place of delight and insight.

I always make simple melodies as they are born free. In many pieces, I use cassette recorders as an instrument that play friendly with others such as piano, lyre, toys, bells or effects. I enjoy the possibilities of cutting tape and making loops, reversing, and even using many tape recorders at the same time making air recordings of the sound. The Roland Space Echo or 2880, which are loop-machines themselves, match perfectly with this way of working.

When I see an emboridery I enjoy both the front and back where a mysterious, invisible world suddenly appears. For this reason, I am grateful to the natural sounds made by the machines, the crackle of loops and other sounds that appear while working, as an unexpected gift.

A través del espejo is a dream of beauty, A love of handcrafted music.”
