I’m thrilled to share the first single from my upcoming album, releasing March 6, 2026, on Hearts of Space Records.
Midnight On Earth is not just music — it’s a listening experiment shaped by the moon and the sea. Lunar phases guide the form, while recorded ocean tides breathe through the sound, unfolding across a 64-minute journey.
The result is a soundscape that feels both cosmic and earthly — contemplative, immersive, and quietly alive.
If you love deep listening, ambient drift, or simply closing your eyes and letting sound carry you somewhere else — this one is for you. 🌖🌊

Aric Attas, Symbiotic {American Elm – Autumn}, 2025
Experience the music of plants!
From Attas’s Symbiotic series, this is the second in a suite of sound installations titled The Four Seasons – Tree Music in the Garden by sound artist Aric Attas. Emerging from the success of Summer Song, installed in PAAM’s Sculpture Garden during the 2025 Secret Garden Tour in July, this evolving suite will explore the sounds of Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring. Together, these works celebrate the changing beauty of Provincetown, enhancing the garden as a place for reflection and discovery throughout the year.
Autumn Song – Tree Music in the Garden turns the natural space of PAAM’s Sculpture Garden into an immersive experience as the days grow shorter. It’s a celebration of wonder, perception, and our deep-rooted connection to the constant change of the living world.
Using custom-designed electronic instruments and sensors, Attas draws on the bioelectric energy patterns within the large American Elm tree that shades PAAM’s Sculpture Garden. Signals produced by the plants’ own living processes are transformed in real time into harmonic tones, chimes, and ambient layers. The result: an evolving sonic tapestry where trees sing in harmony with birdsong, water, wind, and ambient human-made sounds.
Visitors are invited to come and go throughout the day, sit beneath the canopy, and let the sounds unfold. It’s a meditative experience—an opportunity to slow down, listen deeply, and connect with the natural world.
PAAM and Aric Attas gratefully acknowledge the following donors for their generous support of this installation: Marie Hernandez; Brad Lorimier & Joan Ohl; Warren Obluck & Carol Ludwig; Abigail Walters.

In the Sculpture Garden itself, Attas will share the creative process and the natural phenomena that make Autumn Song possible. His practice blends cutting-edge technology with poetic intuition to explore unseen and unheard dimensions of the world around us. Attas’ sound installations incorporate generative ambient music, using data input from the natural world, including living plants and collected field recordings from Cape Cod, sub-tropical Central Florida, and beyond
As you wind up your Secret Garden Tour, please also step inside PAAM’s galleries.

Have you ever truly listened to the natural world?
Join us for a unique guided meditation experience where nature and sound come together to nurture your inner peace. During this session, you’ll be guided through calming visualizations, accompanied by ambient music created in collaboration with plants. Each note and texture is derived from the natural electrical vibrations of the plants themselves, harmonized through generative algorithms to create an organic, soothing soundscape.
Perfect for both beginners and seasoned meditators, this session offers a unique experience, where guided meditation and plant-based music merge to bring you to a place of serenity, balance, and reconnection with the natural world.
Symbiotic is a series of live generative music performances and recordings created in collaboration with plants. Through these collaborations I translate the electrical vibrations within plants into audible music creating compositions allowing us to hear the otherwise silent symphony of nature and experience our connection on an immersive level.
The music that emerges from this collaboration is deeply relaxing, well-suited for meditation, yoga, stress reduction, and creative activities. Unlike traditional recorded music, generative music exists only in the present moment, infinitely evolving through adaptive generative algorithms that respond in real-time to data received from live plants. There is no fast forward or rewind, only the present moment. What transpires is a deeper connection between ourselves and the natural world.
