Saul Williams, a man of many talents including poet, rapper, and actor who has built his own unique world of expression, and Carlos Nino, a producer emblematic of the LA spiritual scene, have finally collaborated for the first time after a long friendship.
This video captures a special outdoor performance held under a large tree in Coldwater Canyon Park, LA, in December 2024.
With the participation of trusted friends on guitar synths, saxophone, flute, various percussion instruments, and computer sound design, the content blends the open feeling and spiritual mood that can only be found outdoors. The session of narration and sound, wrapped in the natural air, is like capturing a once-in-a-lifetime live performance.
