about

We were planning on sharing this later, but my heart is heavy and this piece (composed over a century ago by Erik Satie) soothes my soul.

On Friday, December 2nd, at approximately 11:30 PM, a tragic fire erupted in an artist collective workspace in the Fruitvale district of Oakland. Within the space many artists and attendees of our community were present. To date, the exact number of injuries and fatalities are unconfirmed but have risen to 36 and may take weeks to resolve. Sadly, what is known is that this is a massive tragedy for the Bay Area Arts community

Gray Area Foundation for the Arts, a non-profit that has been involved in the greater Bay Area artist community for the last 10 years, has deep and personal connections with many of the presumed victims of the tragedy. They set up a relief fund for the surviving victims as well as the families of those that passed. Please donate directly to the organization.

Alternatively any proceeds from this recording will otherwise be sent to the fund.
