{"product_id":"mia-doi-todd-morning-music","title":"Mia Doi Todd - Morning Music","description":"\u003cp\u003eMia Doi Todd is known for her quiet, haunting songs, usually conveyed through her evocative and\r\ninstantly recognizable voice. With a deep body of work spanning twelve albums, and as a formidable\r\ncollaborator on records by Laraaji, Tunde Adebimpe (TV on the Radio), Scientist, and more recently\r\nwith André 3000 and Carlos Niño on New Blue Sun, Mia is an essential element in the richly woven\r\nmusical tapestry of her native Los Angeles.\r\n\r\nMorning Music is an instrumental, ambient experience unlike anything else in her catalog. Originally\r\nreleased as a CD in 2009 and now available for the first time on vinyl, Mia chose to forgo vocal\r\nexpression and give full range to the voices of her instruments and the sounds around them. It is a\r\ngorgeous, softly stirring work of art that makes full use of it's minimal elements. Mia recorded and mixed\r\nthe tracks at her own Château des Chats Studio in Frogtown, Los Angeles, playing harmonium, piano, tin\r\nwhistle, tamboura, acoustic guitar, and drums. On the tracks \"Samai'i\" and \"Emotion,\" she is joined by\r\nmulti-instrumentalist Andres Renteria on cajon, piano, wooden stool, and udu. Birds and traffic, heard\r\nsoftly in the distance, feel like a natural and comforting part of the proceedings. The small dramas of the\r\npiano and tin whistle resolve themselves peacefully, like thoughts arising and falling in meditation.\r\nHowever one chooses to listen, Morning Music is a lovely and aptly named collection of music\r\nto encourage even the weariest minds and bodies to quietly awaken.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48714158670129,"sku":"881626803011","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/4302433-3118781.jpg?v=1712284354","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/mia-doi-todd-morning-music","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
