Christian (under the moniker Love The Paradox) has created an initial production of "Genesis Piece" - where the first repetition "The Sound of The Earth" (our namesake) is sung. This melody has hovered over him for years, showing up with additional lyrics while he drives, or does other tasks. Ethan records his trumpet solo.
A live set with a combination of songs previously written by Christian, and new stuff co-written by the duo, takes shape.
The name "Sound of Earth" is chosen. (originally, it had a "The") (+FEST)
Let's Define: "Sound of Earth"
[( Sound : /ˈsaʊnd/ ) ( of : /ˈəv/ ) ( Earth : /ˈɝθ/ )
The sound you hear when everything is still, you are small, the Earth is huge, and invites your stewardship, compassion, and care, in exchange for a thriving and fulfilling life.
