New Full Length Album
Rupture in The Eternal Realm Out Now on iDEAL Recordings "Lavender avoids the usual new age pitfalls, sculpting sounds that bury themselves deep in the subconscious. It's oozing, intensely organic material that chimes rather than throbs, obscuring gentle, lulling rhythms in glittering clouds of electro-acoustic noise." - Boomkat Rozart Mix LP Out now on Hanson Recordings Live recording of a performance of a tape piece by John Cage realized by Aaron Dilloway with C. Lavender, John Wiese, Robert Turman, Quintron, Twig Harper and Rose Actor-Engel. Supported by Wave Farm and the John Cage Trust Transcendent Waves How Listening Shapes Our Creative Lives Debut Book Published by Anthology Editions Order Here Press " Rupture In The Eternal Realm, feels pressurized, as moments of crushing intensity crack open into colorful inner worlds. C. Lavender builds sprawling pieces that make subtle sweeping shifts feel tectonic. Those contrast with moments that are as immediate as a lightning storm." - Bandcamp "When I think about the concepts of sonic agency and building worlds through sound, C. Lavender is one of the first artists that come to mind. Her work is a conduit that takes listeners into new, uncharted zones." - Foxy Digitalis (for "Transient Seclusion") "This three-dimensional approach to sound is what gravitated me to Lavender’s work. It embraces the nature of the physical world and arguably creates a more intense narrative experience for listeners." - Transom "...an album that sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard. Myth of Equilibrium transcends simple ideas of noise or new age, creating a form of “healing music” that feels more honest and invigorating on every level." - Bandcamp “A thoughtful, playful, and gently instructive book ("Transcendent Waves"), it offers suggestions that nudge the reader toward a wider context for the sound in our lives." - Aquarium Drunkard "The record ("Myth of Equilibrium") skillfully avoids potential new age cliches and manages to act as an invitation to engage with it deeply, no matter one’s spiritual ethos. The lesson is a useful one and it can’t be repeated enough: shut up, slow down and listen. " - Wire Magazine "Where Can Sound Take Us? Innovators in Electronic Music" feature in Henry Ford Museum Magazine (pgs 54-57) |
