Originally slated for release in 2018 as it’s debut release, multimedia platform Eternal Ocean is now proud to present: ‘Plant Lyfe Vol. 1’, a collection of three collaborative projects that feature a rotating cast of artists that include Teleself, Ronan, Acemo and DJ Temporary. Recorded between 2016-2018 at Felt Presence Studios in Ridgewood, New York the results of these collaborations run the gamut of breakbeat house and alien techno to aquatic dub and downtempo explorations. Drawing from their experiences as DJ’s and dancers in the Brooklyn underground, these 12 tracks represent some of the sonic inspirations from late nights and early mornings spent in trance. Represented here is a moment of connection and communion in a place that emphasized separation and individualism and the raw quality of the recordings reflect the immediacy and playful character of those moments. This CD also acts as a companion piece to the ‘Felt Presence’ LP on Vanity Press Records featuring more recordings from this creatively fruitful period.
25% of all profits from this release will be donated to the Translatina Coalition in support of marginalized people during this global crisis.

All the tracks are great but Stepper is the standout for me! pounding syncopated kicks, rolling handdrums and playful sample work, dancefloor destroyer. Jack G.
Straddling the threshold between studio performance and digital technique; the NYC artist applies "fake jazz" principles to synthpop. Bandcamp New & Notable May 2, 2024
