Writing, producing, and recording DREAM DANCE took over 3 years and was truly a life changing event for me. It turns out that I shot a lot of video blogs throughout the process of assembling this album, and since so many of you are also artists and creatives, I thought you’d find something of value Read More…
When I was a kid, I spent hours and hours in my room playing my guitar and singing. I sometimes would also wander out into the woods around our house with my guitar until I found just the right spot, and sit on the ground serenading the trees. There was one song I played over Read More…
Of all the songs on DREAM DANCE, this one was probably the MOST challenging. I had my struggles with others, to be sure. Dream Dance, the song itself, presented multiple difficulties (culminating with 27 versions of it)! But We Carry On was its own beast. I had set myself a goal to write a pop anthem Read More…
“Heart on a Shelf” is the one song on DREAM DANCE that was directly inspired by a new pop artist I had run across randomly while watching The Voice in 2012, Melanie Martinez. I remember at the time as I watched her that I felt a strange affinity for her, as she seemingly got swallowed up by the show Read More…
“Wasteland” was the very first song I wrote for this CD, and it holds a very, very special place in my heart for many reasons. I asked Gentry Bronson to write some lyrics for me to arrange and compose to jump start my recording project. When he presented me with these, I was immediately taken with them. Read More…

I made some incredible Read More…

I had been reading this incredible book “COLOR” by Victoria Finlay which is a perspective and travelogue about the origins of color. I was drawn to the book because of Read More…
My original concept for the DREAM DANCE CD was to create the soundtrack for a live, phantasmagorical electronic music show with my sometime lyric-writing partner, Gentry Bronson, as the barker and myself as the protagonist, telling a story about the evolution of relationship. I conceived of Over the Hedge initially as an overture; a launching Read More…
Hey, it’s Nymphya here! I hope you will really enjoy listening to the music as much as I enjoyed creating it. I thought it would be cool to let you know a little bit more about me since I’m pretty sure if you’re into Art Pop/Experimental/Bohemian type music, we probably have more than just a Read More…
Kate Bush has been called a half faerie singer-songwriter, and nearly every quirky female pop artist who has followed her tends to get compared to her. Being a quirky, female, half faerie singer-songwriter / producer myself who has also been compared to her, Kate Bush has been supremely impactful on my music-making for my release Read More…
