“luvt” (Annie Bloch)
With „luvt“, organist and songwriter Annie Bloch (Cologne, GER) presents a project that is dedicated to the sound realm of the chest organ. "luvt" - derived from the German „luven" = "to turn to the wind" - takes us into a new imaginary space and shows a facet of the pipe organ that can be both powerful and delicate. The album “luvt” will be released on OOH-sounds (Florence, Italy) in fall 2026.
“Real and Imagined Spaces, Vol. 2” (Earth World
Collaborative)
Earth World Collaborative (with organists and composers Joel Peters and Adrian Foster and singer-songwriter Naghmeh Shafiei) explores the deep resonances of the organ through sonic transformations using dynamic wind and live electronic sound processing, with excerpts from their recent projects and new works.
Secondsight
Hajia Maa (Secondsight) is a multidisciplinary creative, singer, and a meditation teacher. In her current artistic universe, she mostly explores music, wellness, and fashion, intertwining meditative chant, experimental soul, and ambient soundscapes. Her performances invite deep listening, rest, and embodied spiritual intimacy.
