Ambient / Sound Wellness Mixs Launch

" now up on souncloud are the first two mixs (of eight) that have been used in a clinical setting by SABI Mind for over three years now. it has also been used by close friends and myself, many times over too ..over and over, as they were carefully designed for repeat use. to entrain to. to reach for as a reliable tool. for the purposes of meditation, clearing, unwinding, calming, relaxing, deepening, inner explorations & journeys, grounding, centering, focusing, resting, drifting, quieting, sleeping, transforming, transporting, healing and other related purposes.

they stand on their own as contemporary ambient mixs and also fully functions in the sound wellness realms. they keep the promise of holding space for the listener the entire time, without any blips or trips or artful overly expressive side-quests, just slowly and reliably modulating and evolving and unfolding.

the first mix is called 'CLASSIC abstractions' because, and because it's the first mix in the series we start at the beginning and honour the foundations and feelings of classic ambient music ..as we also abstract from them (staying present in the now, not just in the past). many thanks and acknowledgements to the absolutely perfectly executed music made by all the artist's in the mix - a decent handful of them being local as well.

the second mix is called 'moving SHADOW'. it digs a bit deeper into engaging with, and ultimately separating and clearing, shadow elements. it's not super heavy or intense in this way, it's somewhat subtle and the mix also still retains it's primary universal purpose of use - it's just one notch or two towards this specific goal (compared to the first mix). many thanks and acknowledgements to the absolutely perfectly executed music made by all the artist's in the mix - a decent handful of them being local as well.

more mixs in the series will reveal over time.

immensely happy to sharing these now, more broadly, with everyone. please enjoy, be well, and be good ❤️ "

Sound Journey Events..

A good amount of energy has been pouring into developing and discovering the best methods & practices for live-performed ambient(ish) journeys that also 100% function for sound wellness purposes. hitting the mark for people who want to immerse in compelling legit modern ambient / ambient-adjacent music *while also* fully serving the functions of what people call “sound baths” or sound healing and whatever other terms. both things at once. cross-pollinating and finding the common ground, together with efforts to disolve limiting notions (and aesthics) and barriers (you don’t have to be know anything about ambient music in order to enjoy it, you don’t have to dress a certain way or roll with any particular crowd ..and you don’t have to all soft smiles & quietly spoken to belong in wellness spaces either, and so on).

here’s some examples of some events and occarances so far..

Winter Solstice @ the Deli

this saturday we're doing something a little different. we'll have the room set-up similar to how we do for ambient/etc events, and conjuring a fully social environment for the afternoon with dj's frumlater and hasselhoff playing some vinyl & digital tunes (dub & downtempo and the like), while people chat and connect over some homemade vegan chai tea and other treats, plus our regular drinks & snacks available. pop by! that's part one.

part two is an intentional sound journey led by michael red, supplemented by what is sure to be a very powerful beginning by ritual purification and raj gill mixing in some elements & presence thru out. we'll have individual wireless headphones available for this, to supplement the room sound & to enable an even more immersive experience. these will be provided by eddy road, also bringing presence to the space.

part three will be the come down and resurface. background tunes with a bit more movement. extended hangs in the afterglow.

mieke jay is taking the lead with how the physical space feels & looks, and nora dawn is leading tea & snacks & drinks end while supplementing some other elements as well.

there are lot of intentions folded into this program. some we hope to carry on into future events. this is a beginning. this is also a return.

winter solstice 2025 moment

March 2 @ the Deli,
assembled by team earth & Low Indigo . .

couches & bean bag chairs & cushy carpet, mostly space for sitting or laying out in the front half of the space, with space for standing & moving around in the back. people are free to move, while also being mindful to not disrupt others who are going deep (during the journey).

personal headphones available, with volume control and some isolation from outside sound. music is played over the main sound system too. whether in headphones or not -> all will be feeling the sub-harmonic frequencies (a key component to the experience).

6pm  doors. tone-setting music. get settled, saying hello to others joining, have some tea (on the house :) ).

7pm deep listening journey, atmospheric environment,

there's lots of coded lineage and embodied intentions & lived ways in this. some elements are knowingly raw and perhaps imperfect. it's a journey, an evolving story and a relationship. willingness to jump in, take a risk, to trip & discover & learn by doing, and refine & course correct along the way.

this event reflects this and is this. align & accept & allow the journey, and do seek for better ways .. which are all absolutely and definitely possible 🐳
