Hello All, it is me Sophia.
I wanted to write a letter to those of you who have loved this music for
ages, and you who have just found it and contacted me ! and you who have given your beautiful
letters, shared your own hearts and also given your encouragement. Thank you for being here ! I am
so happy to be back in connection again .
There is music now here - a three song EP and a new album following,
and in the coming months I will be completing an orchestrated body of work .
(Links to where to buy music
and where to find me and so on are at the end of this mail )
I am writing to you because I want to shake off some of the mystery surrounding Sol Seppy, and to
explain where in a sense I come from, and what has motivated me to create this music.
Now this is long - I just wrote as I felt it in my heart so get comfy .xx
Why i have made this music is this …
the process of creating this music is one where i have to look past what i already know,
and step into the unknown with faith in a power greater then myself
as my partner.
when i do that, there is expanding , and it feels more alive
and true then anything else i experience.
it is the only walk where i feel fully my self.
i am not alone in the bringing together
of moments that are full of the magic of our Heart .
to feel that pulse, i have to be part of it and let go of who i think i am.
this means a lot of stretching, and breaking out of
silly nonsense that does not serve me or anyone else. it means i have to open open open,
as uncomfortable as that is, as scary and as hard as it feels before the inevitable jump.
creating this music allows me to move and touch a place that is beyond me but which is part of me, part of everyone.
our Heart has no borders.
it has no national anthem , it has no house as its landmark, no good behaviour rule as its pre requisite for union,
it is a place of expansion through expressions of creating.
so firstly i make this music because i love creating in a way that means i have to
really move. to move in the way we do when we dance or swim.
my partner is the ocean , the Uknown, my partner is Living Love.
i love creating more then i can express in words, i love
the expansion and the wild ride of it, i love the courage it takes and the presence , the purity of heart
and i love that music itself is the most gentle Teacher to take a bumbling novice as myself
on such a journey of expanding. I love the insanely beautiful discoveries contained within this proc-
ess and i love that I simply could not do this alone, there is no way my hand is the only one in this
cooking .
This brings me to the other part of the ’ why ’ .
I want others to experience this Home that I experience when creating .
This is our base camp, it is our birth right to know this Love that is behind the beat of everything we
do or don’t do.
It actually hurts to know this love exists, it hurts all we’ve been trained to believe, it hurts the heart
we’ve hardened and the reasons
we’ve created to justify the hardness or the distance or the pain we feel and so on.
I want others to experience this Home because it is so beautiful, because each of you are so
beautiful. each of us is this Home. We have all touched this place , and sometimes it just
takes a reflection of it in someone else to know that this place is REAL
but there is no one who could ever find a way to prove it
it can only be experienced. This truth is not something that will be pulled off a shelf and examined
under a light or touted in a speech , or debated.
This truth is a living Being.
It is a personal experience between the dancer and the Partner,
between the ocean and the swimmer, it is unique to each person, and it will be shared as the glow of the
sun spills its light onto everything in its path.
I sing about this Home so much, and will say a little on what i feel this Home is.
well it is a place where we are allowed to move freely
it is a place where there are no ’ wrongs’ . there is just learning.
there is a flow in this Home, a current if you will.
This current is the most powerful dynamic and creative force in existence.
and this current runs through all of us .
that is why we resonate .
it runs through all living things .
It loves unconditionally.
It is Supremely Intelligent, and I wish there was another
word in our language that would convey even an iota
of what Intelligence really is.
we can only wonder.
and wonder in itself is a beautiful portal into Its heart.
I know that we do not need to earn a place in this Heart.
We are of this Heart.
in here there is creation.
in here when you call
you will notice an answer
in here you will not believe how beautiful it is.
you will not believe how free you are.
that is why all beliefs must be put in a nice box and left outside the door.
When we call, we are heard and there comes an answer.
I have called, yelled beseeched begged and whispered and pretty pleaded
with the Air to let me be a conduit for any beautiful message that might want to
exist - in the form of a tangible song or within a song or music.
some of you will know that music itself is a conduit. some tones and movements of chords
contain Divine structures , which resonate in us, in our cells,
in our bones, our energetic forms, and even in our minds.
This resonance occurs in us if we allow. These structures in us
are sometimes burried deep beneath dry leaves of the past and our armour .
Some music can reach through the cracks and touch those parts that have been hidden in ourselves .
This can change all manner of things, physical in our systems
and also our future projections. Simply, music can heal.
I asked that music take me deeper, so that I can bring as pure a message
through as possible that is for our good.
This Current - Pure Love , will come through anyone, in order to express Itself. It is the
same as a baker
who wishes to make bread which when people eat, uplifts them . It is the same as someone
pouring a glass of water, who wishes to give a feeling of connection
to another . Anyone can who wishes to partner with Divinity
and create something is welcome.
We just don’t think we are worthy a lot of the time, and that is a problem.
It is a pain the Universal “But”.
I have to push to the side all my crap before I can dive into the open and loving
arms of Creation. They are so loving that you can back away very easily, opening and closing
like a flickering light, in shock and lowliness, and in awe and reverance. Ridiculous things come
into your head to turn you away from such light. We can easily struggle to let Love live .
Anyway, that is what I did. I dove in . Into the river of music itself.
How i went in was with the pull of of music itself, and with my intention and with most impor-
tantly, faith.
( and quite abit of brave, and lots of burnt toast )
To give you an example of this faith, I created a space in a non physical plane that was a beautiful
house which would receive special music from the Air. It would receive music that was intended
for the resonance I spoke about earlier .
Now since that house was created by me in faith, this in essence means that I partnered with this
Current to create it.
On certain nights, I would go into a very focused state and visit this special place.
Just to go there was a journey in itself.
In due time in this place, I began to hear
the most incredible music . So this idea that I had became a reality !!
It did come ! I was heard . The music I started to hear and feel was unlike anything I have heard yet on this earth .
Sometimes I could not hear actual notes, Sometimes I heard and then completely forgot.
If I became upset that I completely forgot the most beautiful music I’d heard, then everything would
blank out.
I could not do anything sometimes for days .
But there were wonderful moments when I did not forget and I return to begin the process of putting down into notes on paper, or in writing, what I heard or received.
This took much focus and much concentration.
I had to open my heart much more then I am used to doing in normal day to day life.
I did have much help even in remembering what was heard in the music place.
You will hear even in the recordings me asking and then receiving an answer. Sometimes you will hear it in the words.
Other times it is within the chords.
(((What is so amazing is that there is a song called Music where I asked in the actual song
for my beloved Music to take me deeper past all my crap and into its
beautiful Pulse.
And the next song that came was from a place I have never experienced before. I had
to even find a new language
to understand the feeling within the chords .
I was given some symbols as a way of understanding how those chords feel, which I then
allowed to pour through me and into the recordings.
This is such a beautiful example of
the myriad ways that we have within our hearts to move and dance. Partnership !
These songs are here as doors for you just as for me,
when we open and listen beyond the words and beyond even our own judgements,
we can go into new places of being ness .
That is what this music has been created for. It is for us to expand.
I have as you know been rather quiet for a long time. It is the time now for this music to reach as
many as possible. I do not want to be a mystery
hidden haaha, i really don’t.
I am no longer with the record company I was with because it would not be
the best fit for this kind of music .
With very little resources we are releasing this music ourselves , this is in part why such a long wait.
I definately need your support in getting this music out and about to as many as we can.
If each of you tell four people etc. etc. about the new EP , OR just tell everyone you know and barely know,
even better ha !
The new EP is called “A Bird Calls And Its Song Awakens The Air And I Call “
It’s available to buy at :
Indie Torrent http://indietorrent.org/solseppy ++ better quality audio files then Itunes
Itunes http://bit.ly/AbyN6k

Facebook : http://fb.bandpage.com/SolSeppy7
The Bells of 1 2 is also available to buy at Indie Torrent and Itunes.
There is more music waiting to be recorded but without a record company to aid in initial funding it is crucial for us to support each other.
I am so happy to be back , and really missed being in touch . Facebook is funny but hopefully
it’s a functional base camp, where we can meet and please send me suggestions for getting these songs out as you
already are.
I am so grateful to have what I feel are the most beautiful group of people supporting me. Thank you
for your amazing letters .
Love
Sophia
