Deepest Blue.... :-)

Well...it has been a while since the last post...

Coming soon... a different tapping of my musical style (which has been a secret for a while) ---- lush, soft pedal piano with major nods of appreciation to Harold Budd & Erik Satie, understated natural rhythm, relaxing with release & clarity...

After 2 months of logging in 9 marathons starting at dawn - walking on the Siesta Key beach this summer, and listening to the waves, thinking about neat emotional stuff, finding new +++ energy & meaning, and sweating my ass off -- Deepest Blue was conceived - and in November it will be born...

It will be available for free download at  http://iannaismith.bandcamp.com/album/deepest-blue  ,,,, however, I will kindly request you donate $$ to your favorite charity in lieu of paying for this release... pretty simple and selfless, eh???

It may or may not be available at iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, etc.......time will tell....

A new title and artwork is born for the next Indian / Tibetan ambient excursion....  This follows in spirit behind my first dedicated I/T release "Mankiala Stupa Aura" and will be titled Nyingmapa - named after the oldest of the schools of Tibetan Buddhism...  Something about striking a Tibetan bowl..........................................................................................................................(yep, the sound lasts longer than the span of those dots and taps into your soul)...  The overtones and resonance is otherworldly, and has not been captured enough in ambient recordings...  Lately, I've been experimenting live with the app Samvada - it literally puts you into a trance when flipping on the "mic" input and set the sympathetic drones to capture the nature around you.  Magical...  Cool news - it will be prominent on the Indian influence of the recording, which I cannot wait to share...  The photo is by a Chinese amateur nicknamed "littlexu" and I find the photo mesmerizing... We've always wanted to travel to Nepal/Tibet/Bhutan/India - but seeing a photo like this almost makes you feel like you are there...
