brushstrokes echo
sounds she brings to life resonate with her paintings in
that they both create abstract spaces that have a
sense of timeless reality.
She was inspired to make music by being faced with
her own mortality, all of her music being created during
her struggle with cancer (which eventually took her in
2011). I don't know her thoughts about death and the
preciousness of living, but I feel that her music explores
that place where darkness and light mingle. And I feel
that she ultimately felt the beauty of the light, even in
the presence of the unknowable shadows, for that is
what this music reveals to me.
I would love to have released original music from
Lucette (she did contribute pieces to Free Floating
compilations before she passed). But I am happy to
present these pieces of her art as a tribute to her. Her
vision and the music it brought forth continue to inspire
me. As you listen to these pieces I hope that you too will
be enamoured of their grace and enraptured by the
light and life that Lucette left for us all.

I never met Lucette. I never spoke with her. Yet I feel that
I truly know her mind and her heart.
While she was alive she poured herself into her art, both
sonic and visual.
I don't know of anyone who has heard Lucette's music
who has not been deeply moved by it. The depth of her
artistry has been heralded by many, and for good
reason. Over the course of over 23 albums worth of
music, Lucette's sonic palette creates a rich and diverse
world of aural stories and immersive atmospheres. The
