Meditation in a Small Space

by Ian Spadin

supported by

Zachary Talis Dark and groooovy... Favorite track: Ward Parkway.

eintea It's an intense small EP that leans into some unusual glitchy styles.

I love how it sounds wrong the first few listenings, but you slowly get to know its quirks and what makes the tracks so distinctive. Favorite track: Orange Descending.

about

Short-form violent music for a world of short-form violent information. The short format is part of the violence.

While this project can be listened to front to back, these tracks are designed to be played on loop (although the loop is not always clean). My hope is that you take the songs that resonate with you, and listen to them on repeat. Get to know them better.

My hope is also that you do the same for the people and things you care about. Spend more time on fewer things.

(Headphones recommended.)
