“When putting my kids to bed, I started using playlists helping them to fall asleep smoothly. Themes like ‘Meditation music’ or ‘Sleep music’ worked perfectly. My kids asked, ‘Daddy is that your music?’. And I wondered, why not? After all, with love and inspiration from the early days of electronic, ‘cosmic’ music in the 80s, I’ve been writing tons of music that nowadays would be called ‘Zen’, ‘Relaxation, ‘ Meditation, ‘Chill’ and so forth. So here it is. I had a great time composing. I sure wish you have a great time listening!”

“Chayell Zen” is a solo project of Peter Bonne to output music in these relaxing styles, preferably with a slight twist or something else to keep it musically interesting. Tracks find sound inspiration in the brilliant offering of sound creators, virtual instrument creations, and the good old synths still operational in the Micrart Studio.

One can wander through the many recordings by ‘Autumn’ on this website to discover this early work. There are quite a bit of Twilight Ritual tracks that fit in nicely as well. Check out the playlist on Spotify too ;-)

Themes and titles are inspired from within the wealth of stories throughout the world about the history of mankind, their deities, their beliefs and habits, their thinking, and the vast cosmos that surrounds us that has been a consistent inspiration for those old stories. As an artist, I don’t expose opinions, but invite you all to discover (ancient) wisdom, alternative thinking, reach beyond that what meets the eye, or by extension what meets any of our five senses. We only have five senses, just imagine what we are missing out on.

Well, enough philosophy, let the music bring you peace! Embrace!
