This spring, New Equations composed nine new pieces of music which together make up the album Nine Eternal Hallways. The words below were written by Catherine, Soultype 4, after she watched the Soultype 4 piece being composed live on TikTok. The music will be released later this year.

We have a vast depth within ourselves.

It is limitlessly wide and limitlessly deep.

When we open ourselves to this deep internal place,

we connect to our truest, purest self.

Here, we meet our own humanity and are able to feel

and touch into the intensity and range of human emotions.

It is mysterious.

The deeper we connect with ourselves,

the deeper we connect with others.

From deep within the core of our unique being,

we know we are one with all humanity and the universe.
