专辑简介

“Capturing the natural world in its purest form, from babbling brooks to schools of flying insects, East Forest melds the natural world with the technological realm of looping and splicing and cutting. And he can do this all on the fly, pulling these gorgeous worlds out of thin air and painting this delicate masterpiece in front of your eyes with the flick of a switch or a masterful chord progression. Utilizing his own voice as an instrument, Trevor Oswalt balances the harshness of 1’s and 0’s in the electronic music sphere with light, serpentine loops of organic, buzzing, vibrant life. It’s not just for the transformational set, either. East Forest has performed at the mainest of mainstream events, like Mysteryland, and even brought his marvel to the semi-corporate world of a TED talk in Bend, Oregon.” – Anand Harsh, The Untz

Trevor Oswalt, AKA East Forest creates musical tools and exceptional experiences that empower inward transformation and subsequently engender positive global change. His expansive electro-acoustic dreamscapes are comprised of classical, electronic, and avant pop flavors, with live looping sessions that span moments of deep introspection to collective bliss on stages and festivals internationally. He has collaborated with the likes of Elena Brower, Deepak Chopra, and TED, and performed in venues from Grace Cathedral to SXSW and Gillette Stadium. Coined “blissful” (NPR), “magnificent” (Huffington Post), and “an audiophile of a different breed” (The Untz), the Portland, OR based project draws on a unique synthesis of modern sound healing science and ancient wisdom traditions aimed at inspiring inner discovery, combining to form a sonic experience unlike anything heard today.
