Grammy-nominated recording artist Peter Phippen says, “Earth music is actually space music.” On Earthly, his sixth album for Projekt, Phippen’s mysterious and introspective flute is accompanied by award-winning Norwegian composer Lunde, Jr.’s electronics and processing. The two musicians weave traditional flutes from across time with the darker sounds of nature and subtle electronics to create six long-form tracks of haunting, emotive, transcendental world music. It’s an album of translucent panoramas of perception, illustrating the shimmering sonic frequencies of all that is Mother Earth. Exposé wrote about their previous collaboration, “[Music] a listener can easily get lost within, in fact one where a listener will want to get lost in pure introspective meditation with the breath of life flowing through various flutes of the world while a backdrop of gentle synths and tuned percussion guides the listener through the inward spiral journey to sacred worlds where time seems to stand still.” Listen to the earth. Frozen winter soundworlds Sunlit melodies Eerie cries of night Woodland serenades Thunder, wolves, and wind Nature’s sounds are earth music. Earth resides in space. Space is silent Earth’s orchestra sings pure beauty Tone poems resonante from a living planet Earth’s song has no end, seasons come and go. Listen to the earth. Hear, feel, and wonder Earth resides in space. Space is silent Earth music is space music in our observable universe One spirit evermore Nature’s sounds are earth music. Listen to the earth. Gigi Risberg Stafne, natural medicine writer, educator, and clinician at Green Wisdom School of Natural and Botanical Medicine writes: Peter Phippen and Ivar Lunde, Jr. have created a masterpiece that is an invitation to engage with all that is sacred and sentient in this world. Earthly is the deep and spacious breath we long for during the current cultural ecological landscape. Human interaction with the environment over time has potential to create or devastate. Within this work of art, Earthly, a cultural narrative is expressed and deeply felt by listeners. The flute becomes a conduit of reconnection with terra landscapes, circadian cycles, and the natural oscillation that circulates in and around all sentient beings: birds, animals, plants, microorganisms. Humanity hungers for this type of kinship: embodied biophilia. Earthly, the enchantress, opens time and space for humans to dream, heal, create, and simply be during these uncertain times. The earth is within us.
