Yoga Soundscape: Becoming
What an honor to help craft the soundscape for Aarona Pichinson’s dream/vision/manifestation, which happened on June 3rd, 2012, in NYC. I’ve known Aarona for about 5 years, have been collaborating with her on multiple levels, and to finally see this dream come to life of a multi-media visual/auditory yoga extravaganza experience was pretty incredible.
The score was crafted by musical talents Shane Shanahan (percussion), Srikala (laptop, mrdanga, vocals), Joshua Geisler (flute, guitar), Tyler Sussman (didge), Raymond Sicam III (cello, vocals), Shivani (crystal bowls, vocals), Hannah Thiem (violin, laptop). 6 projectors filling the walls with stunning visuals crafted and compiled by Kurt Ritta. Yoga Soundscape to the nth degree. Yoga flow, concept, asanas composed by Aarona Pichinson. Production assistance from Natasha Blank. In short, amazingly awesome creation.
This all went down on Sunday, June 3rd at YogaWorks Soho. The first class was already sold-out, so we had added a second class at 10p, which was nearly sold out as well. It went over super well. I was so immensely grateful to be part of the entire experience, and looking forward to doing it again in a major way, even more major way!
My violin-dubstep remix of Christina Marie Magenta’s Toad
Ladies and gentlemen… I am entering a remix competition of Christina Marie Magenta’s song “Toad”. Very excited to share the results of long hours of slicing, editing, writing, modifying, tweaking, listening, etc.. Super fun! Hope you like [!] And looking forward to doing more remixes..
SXSW.
Excited to be here in Austin for sxsw. It’s like a mini burning man within city walls. Just had a few great shows the past few days, and looking forward to one more tomorrow. Yesterday at Barcelona with Dubspot and Friends of Friends was a blast–I even got a standing ovation–not bad for 3p in the afternoon on a Thursday..
I’m here representing a bunch of projects: my solo project, Nyxyss (have promo copies of our debut EP–they look so beautiful!) and Copal. Trés fun! If you’re in town, look me up!
