Constellation, by Sunbeamer

Constellation

by Sunbeamer

supported by

Savanne_brooke Peaceful and tranquil, Constellation carries me to a world that is pastel and gentle.

The Lifted Index So many ambient artists mistake interesting sonic textures for personality. Not so with Sunbeamer. While Damon's music is full of otherworldly textures that engage the ear, they are merely a place setting, a sonic bedrock. The 11 tracks on Constellation are songs, filled with emotion and purpose, sequenced together to tell a complex and engaging story. It is well worth your time. Favorite track: Second Snow.

about

Our consciousness is always expanding. In days like these the expanse continues to be filled with strange shapes of horror and confusion. The maps of meaning we have relied upon have come up short, leaving us gazing across a vast unknown field, lost and reaching. & yet we must not forget: to accept the totality of loss and love is akin to being swallowed by the night sky - how alone and insignificant we seem in the face of the void, and how beautiful that emptiness can be. Constellation is a call to embrace our expanding universe and all that comes with it. These soundscapes implore us to stare deep into our own void and accept the waves of grief within - to look beyond the boundaries of our conscious mind and trace out new sigils to guide us along a path of acceptance.

Constellation was made with

ciat-lonbarde instruments, eurorack synthesizers, monome norns
