about

Peaceful music for turbulent times.

Suijin is a bit of a departure from my prior releases. Generative soundscapes and melodic improvisations are still primary components of these compositions, but now they’re accompanied by improvised, organic drum rhythms drawn from traditional jazz idioms. The result, I hope, is something unique that exists in the space between ambient, jazz, and electronica.

Working on the project over the past 9 months has been a much needed distraction from the daily onslaught of bad news this year has served up. I’m hoping it provides a similar respite for you.

All the best-
Alan

about

Zensō California

In Zen, ensō (円相) is a circle that is hand-drawn in one uninhibited brushstroke to illustrate the moment when the mind sets the body free to create.

Incredibly beautiful, fragile and painterly sound-poems. 'Island Alchemy' creates its own mysterious and beguiling atmosphere. polinos
