Sample-based beat producer Styles in Black is back to provide some sonic encouragement in tough times. His latest single "Under the Aurora" gives a taste of his upcoming album Mind Vacation, as he enables listeners to look past thought through a guided reggae-based trip hop ritual.

"Under the Aurora" doesn't just tell us, it shows us through vocal samples surrounded by an uplifting arrangement of bouncy rhythms and smooth harmonies. The stage is set for mind-body meditative agreement.

"The stress of the streets can hold you down, you know? In this concrete jungle, you need to find a little time for meditation. So quiet your mind, and open your heart, and find your true self. The peace, the joy. The silence.

Within your heart is a place of silence and supreme wisdom. When you arrive there, the whole world will be your home. Find that place."

- Styles in Black

In these challenging times, forced evolution sets in as we surrender and bend around the uncontrollable. With a world seemingly in disarray, people look to meditation to get one back for themselves and re-center. If you aren't already practicing, take this gateway into your path.
