March 2025 Newsletter: New Release: Two Sequences out now on Burnt Seed Records
|
Hi friends, This newsletter is coming as the end of summer is approaching and the equinox and autumn are making their imminent arrival known. This year, I’m hoping to move with more intention and clarity. I’m excited that my new work, Two Sequences, was just released by the lovely Burnt Seed Records. Made up of sounds of the space, feedback, objects, working with the Floors and the Table Floors, this work is made up of recordings of improvisations on these instruments (recorded by Hadyn Buxton at Monash), with the creation of the layered produced work by myself and Theo Carbo. Joe Talia’s mastering was wonderful and I’m so glad to be using a beautiful photo by Niran Dasika for the cover. It was so much fun to try new forms, exciting scary ideas I’d wanted to play with for quite some time, and to make something from a free space for form. BSR have been so wonderful to work with and ever so patient and supportive, and I'm so delighted to have this music out through them. Here it is if you want to have a listen It’s been a big summer with so much love, care and growth, beach and roads, sunshine, friends, plants and pets. I’m trying to keep some January energy as March choochoos forward and things ramp up this year. Trusting in unfamiliar paths that I feel drawn to has been a great catalyst to lots of good in my life in the past few years; what does it look like to intentionally cultivate this trust in the moons ahead? Sending you all love from the shore, Iran xo |

Dear friendos, It’s been a while since I sent a newsletter, and I keep meaning to do so, wanting to encapsulate more of what’s been going on, and to recap some of the fun adventures I’ve been having. I’m giving up on that, because it’s delaying my ability to get this going. I initially wrote this on the 3rd of January and it’s taken me this long to send it. Here’s to a year of grace with the calendar. 2024 was a really big year. My musical practice changed so much with the trip to CCRMA,...
Hello friends, I’m excited to be writing again to you all, with updates and meandering thoughts, trying to get a routine around writing again. It’s come in bursts, which feel too few so far. As we settle into the colder months of this hemisphere, I’m loving the clouds and soup season, especially when it’s accompanied by updates from friends in lushous sunshine and rolling green hills. I sat on the couch for a few days with a tummy bug, and it’s been amazing so slow down enough to watch my...
