A synth laden, sub touching, indie dance track with lyrics that are loosely inspired by Pema Chodron's philosophy of "leaning in to the sharp points” in times of difficulty. The acid line that shows up at the halfway point however, may encourage you to dance your cares away instead.

Leaning In

Texture & Light was created by Trevor Mervyn as a way to explore live instrumentation, synthesis, field recordings, and deep themes, while striking a balance between the dance floor and headphone day-dreaming. 

With an open mind, Trevor allows his unique brand of electronic music to lead him, not limiting the creative process to stay inside a genre or follow an exact formula. Texture & Light’s sound represents the music that Trevor was born to make, and it continues to evolve over space and time as he is carved by experience, joy, sadness, and wonder.

Texture & Light live shows use synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, loopers, voice, and guitar to bring listeners on a fuzzy, deep, slow motion journey to the stars, and deep within themselves.

Trevor’s musical releases have been charted by campus radio stations across Canada, reaching the National Earshot! Electronic chart, the Canadian iTunes Electronic chart, and topping the CBC R3-30.
