Professionally Recorded Meditation Soundtrack

Help us record our Meditation Soundtrack - Movement:2020

 

Back in 2019, Eric, a sound healer, reached out to a few string players through an organization I played with, asking if anyone would like to accompany him with a meditation project. I immediately said YES.

He also happened to live down the street from me and that's a pretty big deal, especially for rehearsals. Anyone living in LA or who has lived in LA knows what I'm talking about :)

 

Unfortunately, due to COVID, the timing was less than ideal for public performances and all but one of our meditation gigs were cancelled. Through rehearsals though, we became really good friends and continued to collaborate musically. We also began to emotionally support each other during the lockdowns, the unknown, and the confusing and scary reality the whole world was experiencing. The emotional support combined with the musical collaboration inspired the Meditation Soundtrack project we are currently trying to get professionally recorded.

 

About the Piece:

Our Meditation Soundtrack consists of cello, singing bowls, a buffalo drum, didgeridoo, Koshi chimes, and gongs. The 12-track album encompasses the range of emotions we felt during these unprecedented times - the music attempting to portray the twists and turns the year 2020 brought to the whole world. The vision of this piece of music is based on a fictional character representing all of humanity forced upon a road less traveled. The cello takes center stage, moving through the sonorous environment the other instruments create.

Twelve different moods are strung together, telling a tale of something we could only comprehend through our instruments. The Movement: 2020 is pulling from the known to the unknown of what we all went through.

 

How does your donation help?

All donations will go directly to ALL recording, mixing, and mastering fees for this hour-long meditative experience. Our goal is to make this music as accessible as possible to anyone who would like to use this in any way to help with relaxation.

We already have a recording studio booked and the goal is to have everything completed by beginning of 2022.

Below is a video of Sams, the official meditation companion during our recordings, demonstrating her favorite meditation technique. The thumbnail may look like Margaret's sleeping on the job, but she's just imitating Sam's technique.

 

 

We cannot thank you enough for taking the time to read about us, listen to our demo, and help us with our project. We are super excited to be able to bring this project to life and can't wait to share with everyone something that has personally helped us get through these past few years and hope it helps you too!
