about

"Year of Sleep," an ambient masterpiece originally released in October 2018, has been reborn. This remixed and remastered edition transcends its own legacy, blossoming into what it was always meant to be. Conceived in the aftermath of a personal odyssey through darkness, this album is Jourdan's phoenix song, rising from the ashes of a battle with profound depression and the numbing haze of medication.

Stripped of these shackles, Jourdan's creative spirit soared, weaving an intricate tapestry of sound. The new version invites listeners into a deeper, more dynamic universe. It's not just an album; it's an auditory odyssey. Every track is a delicate balance of subtlety and complexity, where once-muted instruments now sing clearly, melodies unfold like blooming flowers and ambient soundscapes envelop the soul.

"Year of Sleep" is a journey through the mind of an artist reborn. Each note, each pause, and each ambient whisper now resonates with a clarity and depth that only true passion and experience can craft. It's an immersive experience that doesn't just play to the ears but dances with the soul. For Jourdan, this isn't just music; it's a reflection of a transformative personal journey, a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, and a beacon of hope for anyone who has ever felt lost in the shadow of their own mind.

"Year of Sleep" will be available on all major streaming platforms starting May 3, 2024.
