This material was originally commissioned for installation at the Rocky Mountain Record Show in Denver, Colorado in early 2023. The pieces were to be played on an endless loop throughout the weekend inside a prepared room called the Cosmic Cave: a private zone in which attendees could seek respite from the chaotic chatter of hundreds of people in a bustling warehouse battling multiple sound systems. Upon entry, becalmed listeners were invited on an immersive aural journey through the “Dawn of Cosmos” toward their own personal “Inner Sanctum” while surrounded by crystals, salt lamps and incense amid ample comfortable seating. The installation was a success, with patrons reporting sensations of deep relaxation and a feeling of re-invigoration after their experience within the Cave. With this in mind, these recordings are dutifully offered unto the greater Cosmos in the hope that you, or any listener, may similarly experience a brief glimpse of inner calm, and that this Mindfulness may radiate peaceful energy outward from you toward all aspects of our shared earthly lives.
