PROJECT INFO:

A special note about “Cochiti” (Track 03) from the composer: “A few years ago I took a solo camping trip to New Mexico. While I was there, I met the Martins, a beautiful family who live on the Cochiti Pueblo. They are truly some of the kindest people I’ve ever met. The grandfather of the family is a Drum maker. After returning home from my camping trip, I received a special Drum in the mail that the grandfather, Bill Martin, had made for me. A week after it arrived, I had a mysteriously beautiful dream filled with music and dance.”
