about

Being Human is an alternative instrumental record rooted in art rock, jazz and downtempo minimalism. Exploring life through each minute and step, the music contemplates everyday living through the heartfelt chemistry of a classically trained cellist against two improvisational guitarists.

Being Human wonders from neoclassical chapters to melodic statements built on floating guitar lines and soaring string phrases. While tracks like Ghibli offer a catchy swirl of tender guitar slides and wholesome cello, others like Sunrise Terracotta or Teardrops tell a more brutal narrative, with cello lines crying over a background of defeated instrumentation. With jazz fusion sinking at the core of When Opening Up and Butterfly or enchanting math rock experimentations infiltrating A Spirit’s Freedom, the album offers an extensive musical palette of sounds and textures. As the story fades to the peaceful minimalism of The Now On, Being Human, a record built from passionate jams and a collective expression of experiences, creates equal parts soundtrack ambiance, fearsome alt-rock, and delicate, upbeat indie
