Balmorhea – The Myth (Official Music Video)

The Myth is the latest single by Balmorhea, from their upcoming album The Wind, and follows debut single "Rose in Abstract".

A film by Andrew Gallo


Balmorhea, pronounced “Bal-more-ray” and named for a small town in western Texas, began life in 2006 when Lowe and Muller met and made music at a summer camp in the remote Texas Hill Country. The group gradually evolved into a larger ensemble and toured extensively throughout the United States and Europe. Following an intense five-year period on the road, Balmorhea’s two founders took advantage of a break from touring to improvise and experiment together once more. With the release of The Wind, they are the first-ever Texans to join ranks with a wide cast of new label mates from Brian Eno to Beethoven on Deutsche Grammophon.

The Wind comprises a dozen tracks inspired variously by meditations on the natural world and its fragility, an ancient tale about a saint who carried the wind to an airless French valley and thoughts of climate activist Greta Thunberg crossing the Atlantic.

What are your first associations with this piece?

[zoewang]

Summer afternoon, sitting underneath a giant old tree by a creek, the sunlight is shining through the leaves, with both feet dipping in the creek..., this is where this piece takes me.

[jamesmckinney]

Walking through the forest listening to all the sounds...Namaste.

[maureenoadams]

Peace, meditation, waves on the beach

[deanmitchell]

Excellent journey, strumming out of Austin, Texas

[황윤희-cut]

When I listen to this music,
I feel meditative, profound, empty, oriental, and mysterious.
But, at the same time, I feel gloomy and remind old ruined site.

[TioClotildo]

Why is Deutsche Grammophon putting out New Age elevator music??!!! This has nothing to do with classical music. This is wallpaper. Did you buy up Windham Hill’s catalog and not bother to set up a separate label? Dumb
