Flow State - Maya Shenfield
Flow State recommends instrumental music every weekday, highlighting an artist who inspires music appreciation in this age of algorithms. If you enjoy Flow State, consider becoming a paid member – that unlocks our weekly Tuesday mixes and private Spotify playlists. Good morning. Today we’re listening to Maya Shenfield, a composer based in Berlin. She originally studied classical guitar, and upon moving to Berlin was exposed to local punk and experimental music scenes.¹ She fuses the traditional and sonic avant-garde in her original work. We’re first playing In Free Fall, her LP from 2022, which foregrounds dramatic synth chords and melodies. It’s a contemplative record, featuring drones in the form of synth pads but also of trumpet and choir. We’re also playing her new LP, Under the Sun, which came out this past Friday and turns up the experimentalism. We also enjoy her diptych Sine Wave Meditations which is available on Bandcamp. In Free Fall - Maya Shenfield (40m, choral vocals on track 4) Under the Sun - Maya Shenfield (40m, choral vocals on track 5) Have a great Wednesday. |
