Living From The Essence.

I love to connect the dots between music and nature. Let me show you how I bring together music and essential oils. Everything in nature vibrate and have its own energy. Your body, and everything around you are made up of trillions of molecules. All of them are constantly moving and “bouncing around” creating a vibrational energy. This frequency of cycles per second can be measured in Hertz. For Example, in your brain (70 - 78Hz) the cycle of energy vibrates at a more frequent rate and therefor has a higher vibrational frequency than your lungs (58 - 65Hz).
It is possible for all matter and objects to have vibration but not resonance. So lets take a lavender plant for example. Lavender has a frequency of 118 Hz, yet we cannot hear it. That is because it has got vibration, but no resonance. The same would happen if we take away the soundboard (the hole) on a guitar. The strings would still vibrate but we won’t be able to hear it. So what if we could hear what Lavender would sound like? Thats right, what if it would have resonance too, according to its vibration?!? Lavender essential oil has a frequency of 118Hz. Lets look at where this frequency lies on the piano.
Here is a audio sample of the frequencies of 117 Hz and 123 Hz on the piano.
Here is the full song Lavendar, composed by using the motive I developed using these two notes.
On the page "Garden of Synergy", consist of songs I composed using the different frequencies that correlates with different plant essential oils. These are my interpretation of what the different plants would sound like, should their vibration have resonance. I created these songs, using the prominent motives, coming from the relevant frequencies of the correlating plants.
The Element of Sound
As a songwriter I use the piano to give birth to my creations, after I got a skeleton down I collaborate with artists around the globe on production. Growing up I always had access to an old piano in the house. I started playing by ear as a little girl before my feet could touch the sustain pedal. I remember watching my older sister play, and trying to recreate those sounds. My whole life I played by ear, until finally at 29 I fulfilled my desire to study songwriting by enrolling with Berklee online. I completed 2 courses. "Commercial Songwriting Tecniques" and "Writing Hit songs". The courses with Berklee introduced me to Co-writing, which was foreign to me prior to Berklee. Today Im constantly co-writing with artists around the globe and engaging in interesting projects. Here's some of the songs I wrote.
