Cycles are everything. It is the continuous movement of returning home over and over again. The idea of forever can seem unfathomable, even unbearable to some. Eternity in a straight line going on and on, never ending is ominous. But eternity in a circle constantly moves but keeps returning to itself. On our physical plane, everything moves in

Cycles are everything. It is the continuous movement of returning home over and over again. The idea of forever can seem unfathomable, even unbearable to some. Eternity in a straight line going on and on, never ending is ominous. But eternity in a circle constantly moves but keeps returning to itself. On our physical plane, everything moves in cycles. On a quantum level, all matter vibrates at a frequency of sound that moves in cycles. Our planet moves in cycles around our Sun. Our Moon moves in cycles around our Earth. Our bodies experience cycles many times; daily, monthly, yearly and even our entire life is a cycle of birth, life, death and transformation into something else.

Cycles is the 3rd of a trilogy of albums I set to put out 8 years ago, portraying the idea of 3 dimensions. The first album Process (2015) represented 1 dimension; the self, introspective and going inward. It had 6 songs on it, a number of balance and exploration. The 2nd album Sonder (2020) was the 2nd dimension; going outward and becoming aware of Other. There were 7 tracks, a number that longs for unity. Cycles is the 3rd dimension; up down and around into a realm we do not see, into the imaginary and spiritual world. There are 8 songs on this album. The number of completion and new beginnings. Turned on its side, it is an infinity symbol. There are 8 notes in a scale and when you reach the 8th you are back at the beginning again. A cycle that has brought you back home. The album goes in a circle, starting in spring, journeying through a year and ending where it began.
