It’s something about a creative that just gives you what you need. A creative that chooses to go with the motions that pull them from within, and honor it with expression. It is my belief that a person who sits on their talents does not honor themselves for our ability to express is our literal super-power, our magic. Creating allows us a way to transmute our energy and to breathe purpose into it. André knows just how to do his purpose, ON PURPOSE and at the times we need it the most.

André sounds like he’s inspired by himself these days. He seems to be honoring all parts of himself, his beliefs, and his ability to see himself as a reflection of nature and other humans around him. And the newness... What do we categorize this as if it’s nominated for a Grammy? Contemporary healing?

Either way we venture into the beautiful art form that is of Andre 3 stacks, and we allow you this moment to journey into our interpretation of, “New Blue Sun.”

We wont dive into every track, but we will touch on three favorites. Listening to each sound gave off a different feel. If we start at the beginning, “I swear, I Really Wanted to Make A “Rap” Album But This Is Literally The Way The Wind Blew Me This Time,” André started with woodwinds, chimes, cymbals and gongs… it’s definitely giving sound bath! It literally made you feel like you were getting a hug. We’d say this was root and heart chakra inspired in some way. It definitely inspired us to lean into the vibe of Winter Solstice and start creating from a sense of purpose and hope. André is reminding us to let our “productivity,” make sense. What are we sowing our time into? Is what we’re doing contributing to our highest selves? Ask yourself…

Ants To You, Gods to Who? This one was felt in the solar plexus, the throat chakra, and third eye. This feels every bit of empowering yet calming. This is something you put on while you’re cleaning, creating, or connecting with others. It definitely gave off late Jimi Hendrix vibes. Respect to the great. Here 3 Stacks reminds us to get into our purpose, to use or voice and our hands, to connect and flow with those we are aligned with.

Lastly, we dive into, “Dreams Once Buried Beneath The Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Unto Undying Gardens,” a symphony that reminds us to dream, to feel, and to release. This frequency gave off sacral chakra and crown chakra vibes. This one you have to sit with and just allow your body to experience what it needs to experience. With frequencies such as this, you’re liable to get up and dance, write a song, pray, write a book, paint the next ‘Picasso’. We highly recommend looping this one while you set intentions and nurture self.

The overall takeaway we received from this healing modality is that too much noise and input from outside sources can take us out of our bodies, keep us in our heads, and knock us off balance. New Blue Sun gives us a tool to not only enjoy, but be intentional in cultivating our own peace, sharing our creativity, and nurturing our minds.
