LAIR / Deimos / Urban Legend Records
April 21, 2021 § Leave a comment
Very happy to announce my track Badb is featured on the Deimos EP out on vinyl on the Barcelona-based label Urban Legend Records.
The A side is the title track by Wará with a remix of his track by Sam KDC. And my track Badb is on the B side with a remix from NX1.
In Greek mythology, Deimos is the personification of fear and panic in battles, and twin brother of Phobos who represented fear. Together, they accompanied the god of war in every fight. Two dark and perhaps not very pleasant characters but perfect to represent the series that would be completed with this EP and with which Urban Legend starts a new cycle with more strength than ever.
It’s taken 6 years for Phobos to meet Deimos musically. We believe that it couldn’t have been a more representative moment of what we needed to express due to the uncertainty and confusion we are living. With this work, we explore the somber feelings and existential conflicts that take hold of us in these difficult times, sometimes in contrast with the need for struggle and survival.
Four enfolding tracks by LAIR and Wará, full of shadows and dark voices, will take you on an inner journey to the deepest within you, represented this time by the powerful remixes full of demonic rhythms and underworld atmospheres of Sam KDC and NX1 who, together with the twin brothers, will accompany other terrible demons in their eagerness to drive you mad and, why not, to save you.

Laura LAIR / Equal Length Breathing Meditation
May 1, 2020 § Leave a comment
For anyone starting their breathwork/pranayama journey or anyone wanting to put a meditation practice into place… This is an offering of a free to download guided meditative session of Equal Length Breathing.
You can do it sitting or lying down, whichever feels more comfortable for you.
I recommend doing daily, even better twice daily, for three weeks to truly feel the benefits that a daily inward practice can bring to your life, especially if you are finding these times stressful.
Le grá and Bealtaine blessings, Laura 💚
Laura LAIR / Toward Light / Out Now

“Sink into the sound
And move toward light”
You may have noticed my tracks often have silence at the beginning and/or end of them. This is intentional- the silences are just as much a part of the piece as the ‘noise’ 🙏

LAIR / 101 Beats Per Minute
May 19, 2019 § Leave a comment
I am very happy to be a part of this cool collection.
Dunk Murphy is the brains behind this interesting idea- a group of named producers each make a track at 101BPM and his Countersunk label release them all with the artist name as 101 Beats Per Minute.
You get an interesting, diverse collection of music AND a fun game trying to figure out who wrote which track!
The list of the 23 contributors for this second round of the project are up on the Bandcamp page: https://countersunk.bandcamp.com/album/101-beats-per-minute-ii where you can also ‘name your price’ for the collection. A new track is released each Thursday, so you can catch the stream of the newest track there too.
It was a very different way for me to approach writing a track- if you know my music, BPM is not something I really attach to! I found the whole process of making it really fun and am so happy with the outcome. Thanks to Dunk for inviting me to be a part of it!
