NOX
released September 20, 2021
I made all the sounds using a combination of synth and real instruments (guitar, uke, banjo, cello, percussion + voice)
Here’s the thesis:
Ancient primordial seas: here, on our earth, in the depths of our oceans nutrients and minerals leach out of stone in a violent chemical reaction:: cold, dark seawater seeps into molten veins of magma running in subsea mountain ranges::: Chimneys and trenches and volcanoes form:: ancient microbes feed off these chemicals hosting a hidden ecosystem miles below any surface light::: millions of creatures live here in the dark::
Europa, an icy moon of Jupiter, has a liquid ocean running under its frozen surface, making it very likely that this extraterrestrial body could host life:::
the microbes of our ancestors are from space::: maybe some are still there, in our solar system, thriving in the abyss! Unaware of the volatile nature of their world!
:TW a lot of this album is about disability, d3ath, and the suffering inherent to the human experience
Also its about spacecrabs
