Earthly Fantasy Sublimator Video: youtu.be/KTlTOntGW-U

Living Geometries of Emergent Breath: youtu.be/OkBDFMeUf2M

Recollection of the Boundless Inbetween: youtu.be/SFC-L2xJm8Q

Immaterial Notions is my most expansive record thus far. It continues the trance like, drone atmosphere of my previous work but ventures more into rhythmic structures and quick orchestrated changes. Like all my work, I draw from my studies in North Indian Classical singing in the Kirana Gharana style taught to me by Noe Dinnerstein, a student of Pandit Pran Nath. My soundscapes are first created by arranging and processing synths and samples, then I improvise vocal melodies in traditional raga style over the electronics. Elements of western classical instrumentation, latin percussion, gamelan, and jazz converge combining tradition with futuristic synth textures and left-field sound design.

For three of the pieces, (Earthly Fantasy Sublimator, Living Geometries of Emergent Breath, and Recollection of the Boundless Inbetween) I have created 3D animated music videos. These surrealist vision quests feature a collage of moving, warping deformed figures and structures. They extend the sounds into a non-linear dream narrative and mirror the music's fusion of organic and synthetic forms.
