about

Atrium can be used to describe a central hall or court in a modern building, however it can also be used to describe each of the two upper cavities of the heart from which blood is passed to the ventricles. Both of these definitions are the basis for “Music for Atriums.”

Standing as the third studio album from multi-instrumentalist and composer Owen Carswell, MFA is both a look into the past and the future. Combining elements of Owen’s debut album “Deluge” through the watery and meditative ambient swells as well as elements from his sophomore release “In Between Here and Never” with his use of orchestral touches and hypnotic tape delays.

Music for Atriums is a meditative experience unlike many other in the ambient/drone genre. Owen has long believed that there is a connection or link between musical frequencies and brain functioning. The purpose of MFA is to utilize certain frequencies in a way that promotes healing and relief in the brain.

174 Hz is believed to relive pain and stress,
285 Hz heals tissues and organs,
396 Hz releases fear and guilt,
and 417 Hz facilitates change.

All of these frequencies are implemented throughout the 40-minute runtime of Music for Atriums. The low humming swells drift in and out like the ocean tide while delicate melodies rejoice above. Let the music fill the halls of your mind and flow like waves in the ocean, or blood through the heart.
