San Francisco composer and recording artist the Xman aka Charles Xavier is releasing an ambient\/melodic\/neo-jazz album titled \u201cPiano Pandemic\u201d on September 9, 2022. The music speaks for itself\u2026 It\u2019s new age ambient piano music that Charles will perform as he crosses the country and live streams the tour.
He will continue his Xman drama with the first single titled \u201cWhen I Think Of You\u201d (Dolby Atmos mix by immersive mix engineer McKay Garner) on July 29th. The second Atmos single titled \u201cSexual Vibration Chakra\u201d will be released on August 19th.
Says Charles, \u201cI was creating out of my comfort zone. I improvised each morning after I had awakened from my unconscious dark shadow and I recorded endless loops of anguish & despair. I was capturing the moment until I was able to release my darkness with loving light through this piano. Isn\u2019t that what every artist strives for? To capture our souls on fire, so that we can present to our audience the true essence of our art, engage our listeners in our battles, our conflicts with egos that are present in every man. There\u2019s a magic in our madness as human creatures that the superior beings that control the universe cannot predict or prescribe into\u2026. DIG.\u201d
Encouraging meditation, relaxation, and mindfulness, these songs are a perfect introduction to Charles Xavier!
Says Charles, \u201cI present this new set of songs recorded during the pandemic and throughout its current state of osmosis, separation, disruption, disdain and frustration from our being separated from our commutative, tribal, creative souls. This living project began as the last six albums have but quickly took shape into a life changing force all-encompassing into oneself. I exist now as a solo human being drifting across America\u2026\u201d
Ambient solo piano music by composer\/percussionist\/sound designer Charles Xavier. \u201cPandemic Piano\u201d is sometimes spontaneous, then magically serene, dipping into quadrants of clarity then unspoken shifting moods, pain then dreams, dreams then gain. Different pianist, different speed. It\u2019s worth a listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
