Since 2008, contemporary classical artist, EAST FOREST has been the leader of underground ‘sound meditation’ ceremonies around the world. His work has also found an unusual home as the #1 most played music in yoga studios around the world. While his “blissful” (NPR) and “beautiful wash” (Paste) of ‘electro-acoustic orchestral ambient pop’ can be contextualized along with Aphex Twin, Philip Glass and Sigur Ros, the fundamental mission of his project is to create sonic architecture for others to explore their inner space.
His albums and collaborations have charted #1 three times (iTunes Aug 2019, May 2019, Aug 2016), including Billboard's top ten.
East Forest is just about to embark on an Australian tour and I want as many of you to experience his offerings as possible.
