On the other, it has made me more aware of being down to earth. ## Where Am I? I often have my head in the clouds. (Maybe that’s why I am so drawn to those fluffy things in the sky.) This is probably part of what makes me so driven to pursue writing music. My flow of creative output keeps some part of me fed. This release (Cosmic Theories) definitely fed a part of me that needed to express itself. Between personal, regional, and global stories, there is so much for me to mourn and so much that concerns me. ## Earth I press my feet into the ground. Solid, I feel it uphold me. Daily life is not so solid. Often, I feel swayed around as if in a stormy sea. That swaying led me into creating this suite. I needed something more cosmic, beyond this earthly domain, to slow that unsettling sway. And for whatever weird reason, that made me think of cosmic creation theories. ## Cosmic So, there I was. Back in the recording studio. (Not working on my folk song album.) I had recently updated some sound libraries from Eduardo Tarilante, so they were right in front of me. “Hey, why not use these?” Of course, they turned out to be the perfect tools for me in this project. Key sounds fed into the ideas for the next track. And a suite was born: Cosmic Theories. Thanks for listening. ###### Fediverse Reactions * * 2 likes ### Please share! * Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window) Mastodon * Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) LinkedIn * Share on Threads (Opens in new window) Threads * Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window) Bluesky * Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email * More * * Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook * Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit * * Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr * Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest * * Share on X (Opens in new window) X * ### Like this: Like Loading... ### _More for you_ * * * ### Discover more from Stan Stewart - @muz4now Subscribe to get the latest posts sent to your email.
