'Celeste' is an album dedicated to my friend, Hideo Arai. Hideo is a multi-talented dance-artist, one of the most creative people I’ve had the good fortune to count as a friend and collaborator. Three years ago he was diagnosed with ALS, a devastating motor neuron disease. His courage in the face of this fatal disease has been an inspiration to me and everyone around him. I hope this music can bring him some joy.

I am donating all of the proceeds from sales of the album to Hideo to help pay for the rising costs of his care.
Learn more about the disease and donate to your local ALS society, such as www.als.ca in Canada.

The music here reflects my ongoing fixation with sound as a raw material, intertwining and manipulating both the acoustic and electronic. The pieces on the album are the result of experimentation, fashioned from sketches, accidents and improvisations, re-visited many times over. They are points along a path, facing forward.

Thanks for your support.

Littoral States is a shifting, reciprocal project that explores affinities beyond time, place, tradition and medium. Working in collaboration between Montréal, Morin-Heights and Brussels, musicians Sarah Pagé and Patrick Graham, along with visual artist Tamar Kasparian, chart pathways at once elusive and overlapping. Referencing a variety of natural elements and artistic traditions, Littoral States endeavors to dissolve boundaries and foreground the incorporeal. Intimacy is defined not by presence/absence, but in knowing and unknowing: as matter etched in air.
