John Zay - Shadows

in dsound •  6 years ago 


‘Shadows’ was written and conceived while I was living abroad in Hamburg, Germany in the midst of playing late night gigs while struggling with my own dark period. Reading the news back home was often depressing. It seemed like there was shooting after shooting and all I could think of was what drives people to this level of insanity. There was some personal loss going on for me at the same time that it all seemed to be compounding in the dark winter of Germany. The American culture can be so all consuming that it is hard to be objective about what is going on. But when I stepped out of it I found myself feeling sad for so many on a hamster wheel of greed while their creative gifts are being neglected. Also knowing first hand that there are a host of natural remedies suppressed by governments that have profound effects on a person’s emotional and spiritual well being pushed my anger to another level. I had to surrender to what I couldn’t control and ‘Shadows’ is the expression of that.
