Elena Shirin - Landescapes
A song that was never written. Alone in a little castle in Austria, isolated from her social environment, the young artist was preparing for the upcoming big tour through the US. The never ending To-Do lists and the self-expectations about rocking this first solo tour made her freeze. She felt overwhelmed with the amount of decisions that had a huge impact of how her life will go on. She just wanted to hide from reality. One evening Elena was sitting on her bed and listened to the Multiverse Sound Meditation of Tom Kenyon. Tears were running down her cheeks. She wanted to break out of this situation and accomplish those To-Do lists with full power and trust in herself. After the first half of the meditation she suddenly had a mystic experience. She saw beings that gave her floating balls of light. During the last couple of second Elena Shirin jumped out of her bed, ran to the piano, recorded a meditative soundscape and some percussion on the cajon. From this moment on it was only about absorbing the situation. She sang out of the momentum. Still tear stained, filled with strong emotions she was screaming her soul out of her body. Like she never had before. And suddenly she realized that she jumped from the back seat in the driver seat and that she will do everything necessary to realize her vision. The energy that the song was giving her, lead to making the song danceable and transforming a downbeat song into a footwork/juke beat.
