50% 2011 sales via iTunes will be donated to: Save Japan Dolphins Coalition & Sea Shepherd.

This is introspective, instrumental, electroacoustic music based around a central theme–something I rarely do. The performances are each inspired by the life and death struggle taking place in our oceans, and the influence of man in areas like the Faroe Islands, Taiji, the Solomon Islands, the Arctic, and the Southern Ocean.

I work primarily with live electronic processing and sampling technology. On this album I combine acoustic sounds with digital sound processors controlled via keyboard and Yamaha WX5 Wind Controller.
