Delve into “Scion” – a symphonic voyage that dances between realms of consciousness and ethereal worlds. Born from the rich tapestry of “Orchid” and magnified over the years, Scion blends psychill, psybient, and more, echoing both nature’s whispers and profound musical influences. From its foundational beats to the expansive digital universe it occupies today, Scion invites listeners to an immersive experience, connecting souls to the artistry of sound.
In an age marked by ceaseless noise and haste, music can sometimes serve as our only retreat. Scion, my brainchild project, brings forth an alchemical fusion of psychill, psybient, psytrance, chillout, downtempo, uplifting, and psydub elements. Carrying the legacy of my former project “Orchid,” Scion is more than just sound—it’s a journey through the various layers of consciousness and realms of the ethereal.
Scion wasn’t born overnight. In 2018, after more than a decade of crafting beats and melodic rhythms, Scion made its debut with the album “Ascend.” But its roots trace back to my university days, where the heartbeats of my project “Orchid” began pulsating. Orchid, with its melodic progressive house and chill-out breaks, laid the foundation for Scion. I had the privilege of releasing several Orchid tracks on vinyl under prestigious labels like Hope Recordings, Silver Planet Records, and Source of Gravity.
If Orchid was my morning raga, Scion is the introspective evening hymn. Drawing from the vivacity of Orchid, Scion finds its place more on the relaxed, introspective side of the spectrum. It’s mature, more discerning, and perhaps it whispers to those seeking profound auditory experiences. Every track is a song of my soul—a sanctuary that shields me from life’s storms and bathes me in its serene glow.
Beyond the familiar echoes of Orchid, Scion resonates with influences from contemporary psychill, psybient, and a myriad of other chillout and ambient genres. Yet, it’s not just about music. My love for nature’s untouched corners—the forests, mountains, mossy terrains, hidden beaches, and more—imbues Scion with an earthy, authentic feel. The sounds of ethnic instruments and voices, reminiscent of remote civilizations and lost eras, further color Scion’s sonic tapestry. After all, every note is an ode to my deepest passions and a homage to the artist in every one of us.
Music, they say, is best experienced. So, while words can paint a picture, it’s the symphonies and rhythms that transport you to alternate dimensions. Here, you’ll find links and music players for all four Scion releases, readily available for purchase on Bandcamp. But the auditory journey doesn’t end here. From SoundCloud to Spotify, and even the captivating visuals on YouTube, Scion’s presence is scattered across the digital landscape. As you immerse yourself in Scion’s world, may you find that ethereal connection, just as I did while creating it.
Step into a dimension where music meets visuals in a mesmerizing dance. Presenting “Dark Star,” not just as an album, but as a high-definition animated experience. Every beat, every nuance of this project has been intricately paired with visuals crafted meticulously on Adobe Premiere.
Countless hours have been poured into syncing the transitions, ensuring each visual pulse aligns harmoniously with the beats, guiding you through a journey of sonic symphony and captivating imagery. It’s not merely an album, but an escapade—an exploration of the convergence between psychill, psybient, and the ethereal universe of Scion.
So, dim those lights, settle into a cozy corner with your headphones, and let the magic of “Dark Star” transport you to the alternate dimensions of life and sound. This wasn’t just another project; it was a labor of love, passion, and boundless creativity. Here’s hoping your journey is as enriching as mine was in crafting it. Dive in and let the waves of “Dark Star” sweep you off to unseen realms.
