Leroy Basnight III / SFTGLD (soft gold) makes ambient music for people who are overstimulated by the chaos of existence. The goal is to focus, forgive, cry, slow your breathing, change your brainwaves and love yourself. Birthed from a journey of caregiving, loss and the search for healing; The purpose of the SFTGLD project is to escape. It gives you somewhere to set Your life down for a few minutes at a time. Every live SFTGLD Session is improvisational. It's a singular experience that happens once for whomever is in attendance; Then it's gone for good. The room disappears. Worries disappear. Trauma can soften. What remains is stillness, release, and restoration. On the contrary; The SFTGLD singles, EPs and albums are meticulously crafted with the warmth of analog equipment and shaped with custom Fischer Music Club audio software, that introduces unique textures, movement and clarity to the signal. Every sound provides relief. Pain loosens its grip. Offering both SFTGLD and the listener space to simply be present. At its core, the SFTGLD project is a continuous ritual of turning overwhelm into stillness, texture into emotion and sound into sanctuary.
