EmpressCat This was a surprising album, from the release to the music. I love the slightly southwestern feeling and vibes from this, and the instrumentations are beautiful. I needed to hear this in it's entirety a few times, in my opinion, to really appreciate the newer tones, but it's worth every replay! Favorite track: Loş Dünya (Part 2).

Loş / D​ü​niya

Lost to the twilight
disappearing forever...
deep sadness
deep love
lost to the world
impermanence of all things

3 hours of drifting ambient,
New Mexico desert style.

The Itzamna Collective:
Adam Ford & Pervin Kanbes
(All instruments, live programming & performance)

I promised Pervin we needed to do something, anything, to keep us from wandering in the darkness for too long, we'll keep living for both of us. We both felt emotionally lost this year & that began to crescendo during the aftermath of the earthquake in Türkiye/Syria.

Things may have only transpired to take a downward trajectory, but the beauty in life is riding those spirals and reaching the other side. The universe has to flow through us or we're always swimming against an impossible tide.

We already had this longform live recording from the Night Air sessions that was shelved as it invokes a very New Mexico/Arizona high desert feel. We ditched it, as with all the other hours of demo albums which didn't really fit into the emotions necessary for Night Air II to materialise.

I mentioned we could release it as a name your price album, as nothing really matters. It gives us something to try to focus on, anything really...

I have no idea if anyone will enjoy it or feel anything at all, maybe it will touch somebody out there. I can't really hold an opinion as I move on further away from myself, slowly disappearing....

The title reflects this situation, although abstracted &, originally combined as a single word, it would be considered a typo. I wanted the title & art to pay some personal tribute to Pervin, her home, her family, her emotions, her strength to survive, so we decided these two concepts worked in tandem. Trapped in darkness physically, mentally or emotionally. Yet the deep endless swell of love & compassion that flows from accepting the impermanence in all things.

The cover art is one of the very first photos Pervin sent to me, so long ago now. It has a story for both of us, it told me everything I needed to know that we would always be committed to trying to create beautiful things if we could through therapeutic process. Anything beyond that is unique & very moving for us.

There's a lot more to say, but it's just not worth thinking about these things, it doesn't really matter anymore....

Anyway, we'll see what happens, there is also a lot of new music to come. We both know that being hopeful of good things is relatively pointless, but we are all human & everyone is allowed to dream, even dream about the simple beautiful moments in life.Those are always the most memorable, the illusion of experience, natural neural function, of trauma response & living in the present without each foot trapped between the past & the future.

Also, it reminds me that we should all just bask in the cosmic resonance, the density of ending, like warm pools that hug our skin as we fall away.

A meaningless thought, perhaps.

Maybe this album will be uplifting to some, or evolve into a dreamy soothe zone of calm, containing just enough tension to bring some love & focus, deep meditative state, who knows..........

Always the love is there,
even if I am gone
so far away now...

Thank you again for your kindness, loving words & overwhelming support.
We are all friends, equals in this universal equation, If music is the equation that connects us, that's a truly beautiful thing.

See you in the Night Air.
