Myndstream are on a mission to release the power of music to help support the health and wellbeing of its listeners. They work with world leading musicians, scientists, and wellness practitioners to bring this mission to life. Real Music, their sister company, represents the talented roster of health and wellbeing artists that they work with. They are thrilled to announce their exclusive representation of the visionary sound artist, Justin Wiggan, who brings together his art and creativity to positively impact health. Real Music and Justin are joining forces to create a series of transformative albums centred around his pioneering ‘Skydentities’ project. This innovative project harnesses the power of cloud scanning technology to craft music directly from the energy of the skies.
Justin Wiggan’s ‘Skydentities’ is a new music series that pushes the boundaries of sound innovation. Through the bio-sonification of clouds, Justin has developed a unique approach to capturing and translating the hidden sounds of nature into music. These recordings are created to immerse the listener in their own journey and conversation with nature. Providing an emotional narrative to the world around. The process involves the use of a series of instruments, including a cloud scanner, wind synthesiser and rain sonifier, all designed in collaboration with artist engineer Dominick Allen.
Justin Wiggan’s ‘Skydentities Cloud Scanner’ is the first Real Music album in this groundbreaking series and emerged from six months of dedicated effort, during which Justin meticulously scanned the skies using MIDI interfaces to capture the sounds concealed within the celestial formations. Described as much more than just an album, it is an exploration of nature’s symphonies and a remarkable conversation between art and the elements. Comprising of ten distinct tracks, each one personifying a different cloud, the album also boasts the contributions of world-renowned musicians to create a captivating auditory experience.
Justin’s work has the potential to significantly impact the fields of art, health and wellbeing. The series of albums scheduled for release later this year will allow audiences to experience nature in a groundbreaking way, offering a fresh perspective on our connection with the skies and the world around us.
On the collaboration, Justin Wiggan says, “I'm thrilled to present 'Skydentities,' a project that delves into our profound connection with the skies. 'Cloud Scanner' allows us to hear the unique personalities of each cloud through 10 captivating tracks. It's a journey that redefines our relationship with the heavens and with one another, a fresh perspective that I'm excited to share".
On the partnership, Jan Mullen from Real Music says, “Real music label is thrilled to be working with such an innovative sound artist. Justin Wiggan is one of the most important artists working across arts and health right now, and his ground-breaking work has huge potential for impact across life sciences, a testament to the power of creativity in health and wellbeing.
