[“eternell” is a word that carries the meaning “evighetsblomma” in Swedish, which in English would translate to  “eternity flower”.]

Now we are entering the realm of deep ambient, often in the meditative sphere, though I personally feel that most of my work is too emotional to function as meditation music. Apparently many people who meditate disagree, since I currently have the largest number of plays via my Insight Timer profile where I share some of my musical works with a global community of fellow meditators (I meditate daily, but I prefer silence or natural ambient sounds to music).

 

I didn’t have a name for these expansive soundscapes when I released the first iteration of ‘Waking Music’ – a work consisting of 6 long-form ambient pieces that I created while traveling in India in 2009, and representing a rebirth both musically and spiritually. Having named my newly started Bandcamp page ‘Eternell’, I thought it would be a cool idea to leave this new ambient project nameless and mysterious. After some years I realized that the music had become associated with the name of the page and I decided to keep it as the moniker for my most ethereal sonic explorations.

 

A more expansive description of the history of ‘Eternell’ can be found in the release notes to the compilation ‘Beneath an Endless Sky‘.​
