Tension blooms in relentless, expanding waves on “when air collapsed within.” Sonic expressions move between calm, crystalline drips, and quiet moments to find grounding even as these quiet tones rise toward the sky. Each grain flickers in unique patterns leaving us feeling light as air. But our dear friend, the medic guides our thoughts through varying aural paths, all interconnected even as the edges become frayed. Beneath the searching melodies floating on the surface of “when air collapsed within” lies an anxiousness. She wrote this music after experiencing a panic attack while alone on a walk in 2024, and the shapeshifting soundscapes capture this journey toward clarity and peace. Synth arrangements expand outward as serenity comes into view, the sharp timbres blurring into a warm cocoon.
when air collapsed within will be released on October 4 by Dragon’s Eye Recordings. Stream two excerpts below and pre-order HERE.
