About
At Calm Water productions we are dedicated to producing high quality acoustic music for relaxation, yoga, tai-chi, meditation, massage, daily life, study, concentration and work. All of our music is recorded with the A tuned to 432Hz which is believed to be a frequency more in resonance with the earth and thus more conducive to relaxation.
We are fascinated with the way in which music affects our moods and mental states. Influenced by Indian devotional music and African and Native American ritual music we create pieces of music that use those principles of repetition of simple phrases and rhythms to create soundscapes. Using the middle eastern and far eastern concepts of improvisation we overlay these with spontaneous and free improvisations that evoke a Calming and deep Ambience.
We will post regular pieces here, on insight timer and on Youtube which create a positive and calm atmosphere. In a world full of uncertainty we feel it is important to have all the help we can get to keep our own minds calm and at peace – and we hope that this in turn will ripple out into the world around us – perhaps like this the world will become a better place.
Kin Thiessen (Director, Producer and Musician)
Kin Thiessen is the Producer and Composer for Calm Water Productions. He has spent most of his life devoted to music and from many years travelling the globe he collected influences which started from Classical Music and then Indian devotional Music, Mexican and African ritual music through folk and Celtic music. All these are put into the mixing pot to create modern, profound soundscapes that help us to sink into a deeper part of ourselves.
The Science
We all intuitivly know that music affects our moods and states of consciousness. Just watch a film and notice how the combination of images, the content and the music cause emotions to arise in you. Anxiety, Tension, Sadness, Happiness can all be triggered by music. Listening to certain pieces of music triggers feeling in us all, some pieces link us to feelings that we felt when we listened to that piece of music a lot and bring back memories and images from the past.
This effect has also been studied in many scientific studies and even has it’s own branch of neuro science called neuromusicology. Music activates every part of our brains. Playing and listening to music make us happier, healthier and more productive.
Listening to certain kinds of music improves our mood. If we are stressed it can calm us, it can invigourate us, get us ready to party, it can help us concentrate, it can relax us and put us into a trance. Music is a very powerful way of influincing our brains and our mental and emotional states. People have been aware of this since the beginning of time and in every culture, no matter how primitave or advanced we find music. It is used to bring people together, not just in the same physical space, but into the same mental and emotional space. Into a communion, a sense of union giving us a sense of belonging so important as human beings.
Music does this by stimulating the brain to create dopamine which is the chemical that makes us feel good, its the same chemical produced when we eat chocolate, succeed and orgasm. It is the brain’s motivation molecule a part of its pleasure-reward system. When we enjoy or play music together the hormone oxytocin is produced in the brain which is our trust molecule. It helps us bond and trust others.
There is abundant evidence that listening to music makes us more happy and productive. Background music helps us concentrate and perform complicated tasks with greater acuracy and less stress. Listening to postive uplifting music increases our creativity and helps us to become kinder more empathic people.
With this in mind at Calm Water Productions we create pieces that are specificaly designed to calm, relax and uplift us. Using repetition of simple chord sequences we create beuatiful pieces of music that can be the soundtrack to your happy life.
