Written by : Kathleen Regan + yadzi

This song originated in Nashville, TN when Max (yadzi) was visiting from LA and staying at my house for the weekend! (one could say that's where the inspo for the words 'guest + house' came from, but it was actually directly inspired by the poem 'Guest House' by Rumi)

'Guest House' is about learning how to live with, and furthermore, welcome in, your emotions. Feelings aren't necessarily a new topic for me, as I often speak on mental health in my music, but the exploring & recreating of the production alongside Max, was very refreshing. I met Max through Songcamp/headless CHAOS, which has truly proven to be the gift that keeps on giving.

We hope this song finds the collectors + listeners who need it, and remind them that they're not alone in their feelings. And there is always time to make friends with your emotions.. I'm still learning how to do that everyday. 

Thank you to Reveel + Decent, for this sick opportunity.. You guys are all true champions of art/creators.

With love, 
KR

LOST IN IT #47

In the Leaves

I wrote "In the Leaves" about a dream I had before I decided to quit my stable, full-time design job.

In the dream I kept waking up outside  on the sidewalk in San Francisco, and later in the leaves by a road. I kept choosing that over my bed, and it felt surprisingly calm to wake up outside of my home.

I had a session with Benji Cormack and we talked about this dream and how it seemed to mirror my life choice of staying in the comfort of a full-time job or leaving to focus on music and being satisfied with less.

I quit the job and now I"ve put out the song.

"I"m waking in the leaves again
Under street signs, never needed more.
Mapping out the turns I take
When I sleepwalk, why"s it feel like home?"

how sad is that_demo4 #80

BREAD is a song co-written by Charm Taylor , Miles Ryan Harris, and Sara Phillips. Thanks to Ashton Woods for an amazing production palette. Miles Ryan Harris engineered this mix masterfully. Grateful for our Future Surf Radio community for bringing us together this year. Here's to all the creators signed to themselves, choosing creator sovereignty, and investing in the new ways. We see your artistic value and we always will. 

BREAD

Mau Montekio is a trance producer in Mexico. He got connected to RAWRA through the incredible Alex Purdy. In fall of 2021, Mau and RAWRA collaborated to create what became "Collide," a trance pop ballad about how "tu media naranja" your "other half" might not really be it... It's the push and pull between wanting to be with someone who isn't for you and universe being like "let 'em go bb." 

Collide was written while RAWRA was a community engagement artist in residence at the Arthouse in Syracuse, NY. Last fall (2022), they wrapped on the Collide music video in collaboration with Schnell Mode, RedHouse Theater, The Little Room Art Gallery, and special thanks to American High,  -- stay tuned for a lot of oranges getting juicy ;)

Head Above (feat. Reo Cragun)

I wrote "Head Above" at my piano on a rainy LA day. 

Its gone through many revisions (one that even dropped on LNRZ with Bloody White and Clear Eyes). The final version is releasing on DSPs on Jan 27th and it features Reo Cragun. 

Hope you listen and feel like the main character of your own action film.

Dance Music for Introverts Vol. 1 #7

HYDRA by ALYSS

The HYDR NFT collection has been swirling around 2023 in a multiverse of awakenings, synchronicities and strange cosmic events. The last 7 years have felt like a hazy dream of both dark unending fog and unimaginable iridescent light; the dual forces of which collided together as the original HYDR track and its different variations came to be. 

The main, acoustic and ambient versions were self-produced and I had the pleasure of collaborating with UK producer simmerdown on the remix, who transformed the original in to a deeply hypnotic and shamanic electronic journey from start to finish. 

Bringing the project to life, the visuals and artwork were crafted by music / visual 3D artist 1011 Theory who went above and beyond to construct the HYDR being piece by piece in a way that exceeded all visions. 

I invite you to make note of any colours, feelings or symbols that rise up as you listen. These are your personal activation c0des.
