Excited to announce a forthcoming collaborative record produced with my friend Brandon Miguel Valdivia who works under the moniker May Aya. Releasing May 8 on the Marionette label, Primordial Mind structures the micro impulses and psychic expanse of serene meditation and collective turmoil into ceremonial, rhythm-forward sound mandalas. The album showcases the percussive patterning and textural weave of a broad palette of sound sources, employing interlocking shapes to contour a vortex into the voided silence of the self. The album release coincides throughout May and early June with the largest number of live performance dates for Khôra and related projects (including a talk and performance on non-compliance with Nidus via the Music Gallery here and a first time performance in LA featuring a Marionette label showcase) since before the pandemic.

Khôra and Mas Aya will be formally celebrating the album release with two short tours and a show in Toronto on June 4 as part of the Tone Festival with Glissandro 70 and Sweet Lips at Standard Time. Please be welcome to stream the available tracks in the album player embedded above and click through the poster below for ticket details for the entirety of the Tone Festival.
