"Blessed We are" - Peia 
peiasong.com

Capo 7
Dm - Am - C - G


 I recorded this version in a very tumultuous time, where again and again in a very short period, I had the feeling that the earth under my feet was taken away, and after receiving another blow of life, this song was carrying me like a ship on the ocean, reminding me with every sentence how precious life was, and bringing me back to the very essence of my being, beyond all the drama's that were unfolding simultaneously. Very grateful for Peia to birth this song and offer it as a light on our journeys. I recorded just a few hours after receiving the last 'unfortunate' news, diving as deep as i could in the essence of the lyrics, melody and allowing my voice to bring healing to myself in that moment.

It was my prayer in that moment - a prayer of gratitude, of going beyond, of returning to source, of stepping out of victimhood, and into self-responsibility, and self-love, no matter how challenging the situation might seem. 

Blessed We Are

"Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" is a five hour, fully connected journey designed to musically guide a group or individual through an entire psilocybin experience, start to finish. 

This album aims to forge a new shamanic path — one that is birthed of our musical tools and the technology of our time while also honoring and inspired by the rich history of our human relationship to psychedelic plants and fungi. 

My album's compositional shape guides the arch of the ceremony experience. The music of the current psilocybin public research therapy playlists (like those offered by Johns Hopkins and Imperial College) is an amalgamation of tracks by different composers - none of the songs were originally intended for psilocybin. Further, most of these songs are comparatively short. The songs of "Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" have a slow and gentle growth, an organic progression that aligns with the waves of feeling and experience in the psychedelic journey. This progressive unfolding allows the journeyer to enter into sonic and emotional worlds gradually, to explore the psychic depths with peaceful transitions that allow for time to integrate the experience before moving into the following song or space. 

Additionally, "Music For Mushrooms" integrates original nature field recordings throughout the composition. Field recordings of “that which is still wild”, provides a soothing synthesis of nature into what might otherwise be a staid and sterile therapeutic setting. Sounds of nature can unlock memories, calm our senses, and contain a texture that welcomes our most ancient self home — whether a chorus of crickets or a gentle mountain breeze. 

As mentioned, "Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner" was recorded and improvised live, inside ceremony.  In this way, it contains the ‘energy of the medicine’.  

The new album is intentionally conducive to the psychedelic experience in a variety of additional ways, like avoiding lyrical content so as not to spark the language centers of brain. The record employs falsetto vocalizations throughout, utilizing a non-lyrical language composed primarily of improvised vowels. This allows for the benefits of vocals without the potential language triggers of lyrics. With the live looping technology I employ harmonies and a full choir can develop. 

I’ve always intuitively felt that the solutions our world needs will not come from the top down. Rather, the answers we’ve been looking for will come from the inside out. By exploring our interior landscape to heal our traumas, to root out shame, to learn to love ourselves, we empower our ability to make positive changes that echo out into our lives and the world around us.
