about
Inspired by nomadic years, the wisdom of the body and nervous system, change, Somatic Reality: Bodily Experience and Emotional Truth by Stanley Kelemen, the Kohenet Hebrew Priestess community, and the Judaism of my ancestors. Received to the tune of Avinu Malkeinu, a traditional Jewish High Holidays prayer.
Deep gratitude to my teachers, community and bright and well ancestors: Taya Shere, Ibrahim Baba, my parents, Zaide, Grandpa, the Romanian women, Kohenet and so many more. Thank you.
lyrics
Slow down, child, slow down
Slow down and listen to the wind
All comes together; all falls apart
Forming anew your beating heart
Slow down, child, slow down
Slow down and draw yourself near
The rocks are your keepers
Tell them your stories
Now it is safe to be here
A river flows from within you to where you will go
The current carries you home
Let your life unfold
Slow down, child, slow down
Slow down and you will receive
Life wants to meet you where you are
Not where you think you should be
A river flows from within you to where you will go
The current carries you home
Let your life unfold
Slow down, child, slow down
Slow down and you will be shown
The love that was always lifting you up
You are never alone
A river flows from within you to where you will go
The current carries you home
Let your life unfold
Slow down child, slow down (x4)
Slow down, child, slow down
Slow down and listen to the wind
All comes together; all falls apart
Forming anew your beating heart

Raw black metal that brooks no compromises, this has all the ferocious guitars, lo-fi aesthetics and infernal howling you crave. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 30, 2023
