Yazz Ahmed - Shinrin-Yoku (2026)

Music celebrating the healing power of the natural world.

“The world is hurting,
Forever wars.
Feelings of hopelessness.
Abandoned,
I weep for humanity.”

These are the thoughts that have compelled the celebrated Yazz Ahmed to release this music. In these troubled times she hopes to bring a little inner peace and to encourage reconnection with the sacred landscapes we all share on this planet.

This collection of nature-inspired music was recorded remotely in 2020 at home and with good friends in Denmark and the UK.
