Wild Tigers I Have Known: Original Soundtrack Recording

Chikhai Bardo

Sophia AYA’s trio of distinct Neo-Classical tracks are like a sonic diving bell that unhesitatingly takes us deep into ourselves. Sophia guides us down to the level of whatever it is that we likely need to hear, face, or release, wether it is comfortable for us or not.
This singular listening experience is presented across three tracks:
“The Sea Of Almost’ : The complete main composition, featuring Kat Kikta’s evocative vocals.  https://on.soundcloud.com/XfEFaZcOTYlgQAf5cT
“The Sea Of Almost (Instrumental Resonance)”: A deeper more expansive ambient version, stripping away the central vocals to allow the listener to sink into the composition’s instrumental core. https://on.soundcloud.com/vdYD53HvJHjSKIdcGW
“The Sea Of Almost (Vocal Deepener)”: A sparse meditative track highlighting the layered  vocal harmonies and atmospheric elements, transforming the voice into a sacred, etherial instrument of sound healing. https://on.soundcloud.com/NbSPFy6lmZdr5VgT1N
In the depths of “The Sea Of Almost” are giant and gentle sea monsters waiting for us to pass by on our way to feel the unfelt things that remain even deeper below, perhaps in the sea of our conscious or subconscious mind.

The Fog

Ambient ethereal soundscape celebrating Sci-Fi from the past, present and future.

Palisade

Immersive ambient composer, guitarist, and producer. Co-founder & Director of Envelop. https://christopherwillits.com

Christopher Willits is an artist, musician, and guitarist who creates immersive ambient music. As one of the core artists on the Ghostly International label roster since the early 2000s, Willits has continually evolved his craft, producing one of the most diverse and prolific catalogs within contemporary ambient music. Releases span introspective solo albums, widescreen audiovisuals, and unbridled collaborations. His process is an expression of love, inspired by an international audience of listeners, and the conviction that music can catalyze personal transformation and spiritual awakening.

Willits began his career with a string of critically acclaimed albums on the 12k label. The minimal sound introduced on those recordings remains at the core of his work: warm guitar tones woven into smooth, harmonic surfaces. Willits made his Ghostly International full-length debut with 2006 landmark Surf Boundaries. He’d expand his vision next through collaboration, working with Ryuichi Sakamoto (2008’s Ocean Fire and 2012’s Ancient Future), Zach Hill of Death Grips, Taylor Deupree, and, for 2014 LP Opening, with the whole band of Tycho. He also lent a hand in mastering the latter’s album Awake, composed the original score for documentary The Art of Listening, and continues to lead music production and meditation classes in San Francisco.

In 2017, Willits put forth Horizon, the first ever spatial audio release on Ghostly International. The album’s innovative 3D mix is mapped to surround listeners and align with sleep patterns, meditation, and other mindful practices. Willits is also the director and co-founder of the nonprofit, Envelop; leading a mission to amplify the connective power of music through immersive audio venues and spatial audio production tools. Like Horizon, his 2019 album Sunset utilizes Envelop’s cutting-edge technology to encourage listening from within. The five compositions move from warm to cool designed as a soundtrack to embrace the day's end; a collective letting go. Another skyward, pioneering project from an artist who occupies a unique corner of the electronic music universe.
