Gloom

Hey warriors and nature spirits!I am working on a special project this week and I hope you enjoy it with me!The Story of Gloom, Music for Caves :Gloom is a piece meant to be performed in dark space – such as a cave – to fully immerse its listeners and performers in the experience, focused on sound and its deep listening facets. The music calls the listener to focus on their inner voice and light within, discover it and have it guide them out of darkness.The piece is a composer’s story of self-discovery and emergence out of the darkness and hopelessness that many of us feel during the pandemic, further fueled by the pressure of quarantines and lockdowns. It reflects on the feelings of wanting to do something to help yet being overwhelmed and paralyzed by the vast requirements of the new lifestyle that has been bestowed upon all people around the world. The composer calls the listeners to view this experience not as a downfall of everything known to mankind, but instead as a unique opportunity to discover something unique that has not been uncovered prior to the life-changing events; to listen deeply within and bring it out into the light.As always, I am so excited to hear from you and what you think of my new direction for my new album, Obsidian!Oh and don't forget that I will be sharing my process of creation behind-scenes with my patreons:https://www.patreon.com/viraburmenko BECOME A MEMBER AND DOWNLOAD QUALITY DEMOS FOR OBSIDIAN FREE!!!
