Creation begins in destruction. Every ecosystem knows this. The necrobiome—decay, detritus, saprotrophs—does not signal the end of life, but its rearrangement. How do you make art during societal collapse? Survival and terror occupies the parts of us where imagination and connection should thrive- one of the places I go to have deep conversations that language cannot hold is art. Here we practice interbeing and breathe hope into soundwaves, tap at the glass of separation and for moments allow our interbeing. To create a cohesive narrative in these “end times” seems outside of possibility, how do you make art at a time like this? How do you tell one story when there are so many urging to come through? In Kannon’s world (once described to me as post-rock spiritual jazz), this is exactly where you start those stories- where words and literal meanings fail, you meld the complexities of experience by letting your instruments carry in conversation, you implant subtext right into the technical composition of your music and let the improvisational pieces describe their own point of view. The only things worth density and our attention are born out of collaboration: You pick up the pieces. You rebuild. You decompose. You ascend. You live inside the disaster and listen for what still breathes. -Meg Standbrook Full liner notes available for download with purchase of album credits released February 6, 2026
