About Firmament

Firmament has always been a home to the more experimental, instrumental side of Frolic. In the past years it has seen many transformations, including a collaboration with Astral Project's Gabriel Chapman (digeridoo and electronics...and now an avid photo-artist) to create the deep and at times, gutteral, TERRA INCOGNITA digital download album.

Firmament actually released its first album, "Open-Eyed Ascension" on Velvet Empire before FROLIC's first debut on the same label. Firmament releases are now self-released on FROLIC's own REALM digital label.

I've always enjoyed Firmament as a side project as it allows me to explore less structured spaces than FROLIC, which is built more around verses/choruses to support the vocals.

Firmament will ever-evolve, so stay tuned for more...

SpiderBytes

"Open-Eyed Ascension is one of those celestial electronic voids; its outward journey is aimed as much toward radiant starlight as toward inky unknown blackness. Glorious, spacious tones and light airy drones await."

Last Sigh
"Definitely easy listening for when you need to chill out and take a break from a harsh world outside, Firmament allows you to escape from it all into a serene setting of mystery and haunting beauty."

Monotremata
" ...this is music that is simply, unabashedly gorgeous"
