Eclipse 2024: Ritual For A Reset

If some part of your life is in Bad Order and you could use some aid in shaking loose from it, I suggest that this Great North American Eclipse provides a unique magickal opportunity for a reset -- especially for those in the path of totality, but you can work this ritual even if you're in an area where it's only partial.

About &quot;Calm Brutalism&quot;:&nbsp;<br>
&quot;The instruments paint black. I think about homelessness, anxiety and despair and like what I hear. When the two round off with &quot;Lucent Leaves Grow&quot;, I also give them membership of the exclusive national club for sharp practitioners of electronic-based music.&quot; - Arild R. Andersen (www.jazzinorge.no)&nbsp;</p>

<p>&quot;Dette er noe som fungerer bedre for hver gjennomlytting, og de sm&aring; detaljene kommer til syne som kronblader som folder seg ut etter varme og regn. Det drar deg bort fra dagens slit og plasserer deg et nytt og forlokkende sted. Det er et eventyr som er alle lydelskere verdig.&quot; - Mr Olivetti (https://freq.org.uk/)</p>

<p><br>
&quot;&quot;Calm Brutalism&quot; virker som den hellige arketypen p&aring; alle ambient-albumene som skjerper sansene v&aring;re i deres oppfatning. En akustisk kraft!&quot; Oversatt fra tysk. - Martin Busser (https://einenhabichnoch.com/)<br>
&quot;&quot;Calm Brutalism&quot; er ikke bare et uvanlig eksperiment, som kan initiere en helt ny musikalsk trend, men ogs&aring; et album som kan lyttes til helt uavhengig av sin lydlige id&eacute;. Det er et album som er ubetinget engasjerende og spennende fra start til slutt.&quot; - Robert Ratajczak (https://longplayrecenzje.blogspot.com/)</p>

<p>Wow Sailor is the name of the solo project of musician, composer and producer Kim Reenskaug. Wow Sailor is currently working on her debut album Happy Fear. The album was composed, recorded and mixed by Reenskaug, who weaves field recordings, samples and synthesizers into an atmospheric, emotional and meditative landscape. Renowned trumpeter Arve Henriksen and vocalist Synne Sanden both make guest appearances on the album. They help to make the soundscapes large and emotional. Stig Reenskaug, the artist&#39;s brother, guests with soaring and dynamic violin and earthy, warm guitar. The album is about the opposites of joy and fear, how they both frolic in our emotional spectrum and how they can cleverly hang together and live side by side in us throughout life.</p>

<p>The concert version of &quot;Happy Fear&quot; alternates between being performed in solo, trio and quintet format. The material is rearranged and made more improvised, with more freedom for the musicians, but with the same atmosphere. This was done at a sold-out release concert at Sentralen, November 2022, and three sold-out concerts in Emanuel Vigeland&#39;s Mausoleum in May 2023. The solo format was shown for the first time at Winter Solstice, Kroloftet in 2022, at &Oslash;stre in Bergen in June 2023, and as support for Synne Sanden in Italy and Bulgaria in the fall of 2023.<br>
&quot;With her debut Happy Fear, Wow Sailor has created a rich world with room for mind wandering in all directions. Lucky are those who have Reenskaug as their producer!&quot; - Torkjell Hovland, Ballade<br>
&quot;As the title more than suggests, the thoughts that form the basis of this business card are the opposites between joy and fear, how they belong together and stay with us throughout our lives. Reenskaug, or rather Wow Sailor, has managed to illustrate this in a deeply personal way (...) A great musical status report from a new and very exciting voice.&quot; - Tor Hammer&oslash;, Nettavisen<br>
The cast is:</p>

<p>Kim Uglum Reenskaug - synth, sampler, field recordings, electronics&nbsp;</p>

<p>Synne Sanden - vocals</p>

<p>Stig Uglum Reenskaug - acoustic and electric guitar</p>
