Profile Information

I am the following; a: Fan of Music, Band, Musician, Song Writer, Label, Producer, Photographer, Graphic Artist, Music Educator

Style of Prog: Progressive Electronic, Also a fan of other genres of music

Biography: Working in original composition, Magnetic Wind employs synthetic arpeggios, washes and melodies along with pianos, world touches, soft voice effects, field recordings and experimentation with organic instrumentation to create arrangements with a cinematic depth. Some pieces feature female vocals – whispered phrases, soaring wordless utterances and chants. Whether it is atmospheric, dark ambient or light new age, her music invokes your senses and emotion.

Born amidst a thunderstorm and delivered from her ancestors through the Thunderbird, she derives her performing name from her Mayan birthday. Heavily inspired by the Sufi poet Rumi as well as sound healing, Bhakti and field recordings, Magnetic Wind engages in a transcendent process in creating her art where she becomes a conduit of spirit, vibration and sound, performed intuitively.

This versatile artist has composed and performed in a variety of genres for over two decades. Her early influences were George Winston , Enya and Liz Story, as well as Fresh Aire and Mannheim Steamroller. Later she would combine her love for shoegaze and the ethereal, work with nationally famous gospel artists and producers and explore pop and rock. But the roots in her soul have always been in the ambient and new age genres. Kirtan, mantra and chant have been apart of her life since 2003. Influenced by Deva Premal, Tom Furhman, Wah and Ashana as well as the process and style of Lisa Gerard, Magnetic Wind’s new albums focus on the intertwining of multiple processes of music making from organic to electronic, vocal to field recording, and everything else in between.

The 2009 debut album of Magnetic Wind met with rave reviews with the title track, Believe, selected to be part of Songs for Hope, an album dedicating to helping abused and neglected children in the southern U.S. It was also honored as being chosen as a theme song for the group Women in Recovery. In 2010, Chakras was released, featuring the critically acclaimed single, The World Below. Magnetic Wind has been featured on The Power of Prog, New Age Music Circle, Night Tides (KCUR, Kansas City), Astreaux World, Radio Mystic, Anima Lumen (Brazil), Stillstream.com, Sadayatana, Nightscaping, Spiral, Mystic Music, Free Floating and Hearts of Space. The World Below was selected as apart of Sounds From the Circle, produced by Only New Age Music producer Suzanne Doucet for the Winter 2010 compiliation CD.
Astral Vortexes, released in 2010 on Endless Ascent and has been heard on stillstream.com, KCUR’s Night Tides, Astreaux World, as well as various podcasts and stations around the globe. In December of 2010, she released Sounds of Rumi Vol. 1, ethereal ambient, and in February 2011 La Petite Morte, a dark ambient album releasing on Rain Netlabel. She is a trained sound healer, Reiki Master and reflexologist and dedicated to the field of healing through sound vibration, divine voice and altered states of bliss.

Influences or Favorite Bands: Lisa Gerrard, Enya, Deva Premal, Ashana, Har, Shane Morris, Dan Minoza, Paul Rudy, Bob Ohrum.
