Album Notes & Community Reviews

This intergenerational, deeply collaborative project pairs the veteran French new age synthesist with two prominent voices of the contemporary Los Angeles ambient scene. Weaving archival tape loops with modern modular synthesis and delicate viola improvisation, the trio manifests a deeply spiritual, profoundly meditative sonic environment.
