Kismet

Kismet departed from lyric-based vocals entirely in order to “explore the space between sound and silence.” Dold explains, “We didn’t want to tell the listener what to think; we wanted to create a space for the listener’s own thoughts.” The album reflects a very creative period for Martin in particular; she was journaling daily, writing poetry and painting. Kismet is accompanied by a collection of her poems and paintings that directly relate to the music. Martin also began a regular mediation practice during this time. She says, “It’s a very internal album. We wrote a lot when it was quiet, at night.” Influenced by their travels to Southeast Asia, and especially Bali, the music is resonant with chants that speak a universal language. Kismet has an uncanny ability to lull listeners into a trance that transports us on a cosmic voyage.
