ABOUT JIM

Jim (Suburbanoid) began his sound meditation journey over 20 years ago while attending a course for meditation at Delgado College. During this time, he began composing music to help guide meditation. In 2008, he had the opportunity to record his 1st music meditation album titled “Lite Roast” in Ojai, California. This album was inspired by the town of Ojai and full moon ceremonies performed at Meditation Mount. He has traveled across the country numerous times and has brought this sound experience to multiple yoga, meditation, and spiritual centers.

In 2017 and 2018, he began offering this sound meditation for patients at recovery centers in Malibu and offering it until he and his family were evacuated from the 2018 Malibu Fire, eventually relocating to Santa Barbara. In 2020, he returned to Meditation Mount in Ojai to film his Virtual World Tour concert dedicated to Japan.

This concert series won a 2020 Responsive Artworks award from the Santa Barbara Bowl and Arts Commission. With the award money received, he was able to replace his older sitar and buy his new Fusion Sitar. At the beginning of 2021, he began offering his sound meditation at Meditation Mount in Ojai every Sunday morning. It continues to today and is in its fifth year. Just recently, he released “Meditation in a Bottle,” a collection of over three hours of sound bath meditation music, including his newest album release, “ Suburbanoid Sound Bath Meditations (The APM Music Collection). A collection of sound bath meditation music including fusion sitar, Tibetan and crystal singing bowls, guitar with EBow, Koshi chimes, sound drones, ocean drum, gong, nature sounds, and vocals. This Album was curated by APM Music (Universal/Sony) and has been added to APM's production music library and is available worldwide for all productions, films, TV, streaming shows, and more!

It contains twenty-two beautiful, relaxing, and meditative musical compositions.
