Dark Matter w/ Sunmoon Ether – 03/10/2023

Everyday we are here spinning in the cosmic ebb and flow, we are choosing in this life like those who lived before us. Dark Matter is named after the invisible matter that does not interact with an electromagnetic force — that does not absorb, reflect or emit light — yet makes up most of the universe full of trillions of stars. The show juxtaposes gritty and soft nocturnal sounds to urge you on with mystical devotion in times of chaos, confusion, uncertainty, and anxiety. It is dedicated to the struggle of bringing the dark to the light, the unclear to the clear, the discrete to continuity, the unknown to the known — to tread faithfully onward to: love, this life.
