When I think about what Healing Is A Miracle sounds like, I think of the ocean. The vastness of it. The depths of it. And, being in it. All alone, on a calm sunny day, far out from shore, and swimming. It doesn’t appear dangerous and I’m not scared. The water is warm and soothing like a hug from the world. I can see the horizon bobbing in and out of focus. I can see for miles all around me. I cannot see below me, at least, not very far below me. There is a danger in not knowing what lies beneath. Similarly, there is a darkness to this album lurking below the calm beauty of the looped vocals and ambient mood. A deep droning synth, lurking, possibly circling below. You can only hear it sometimes, but it is there.
All will be well, most likely. Eventually I will swim back to shore and I will feel wonderful. But for now, I will take in my surroundings. I will stare into the vastness. I will take it all in and I will feel safe in this moment despite being aware of the danger and all alone. I will revel in the beauty and the wonder. I will take power in feeling small and giving up control. I will feel renewed and then, I will return to land.
That’s what Healing Is A Miracle sounds like to me.
