Mind Traveling ft. Georgia Anne Muldrow & Declaime

"The Vale of Happiness" is a story of a young artist, coming into his own; an exploration of sovereignty and identity.

This mix serves as a sonic backdrop to the recently released eBook, and framework to the forthcoming soundtrack album. The main inspiration behind these instrumentals is the original score to Sun Ra's 1974 film, Space is The Place.
