Spectrum by G.W. Childs IV

Spectrum is a collection of songs created to highlight each color in a palette. Each song, each color is both a celebration of the color, but also the perspective in which each color is experienced through the lens of G.W. Childs IV.
Growing up with synesthesia, Childs has always 'seen' sound. When a series of events altered his life in the form of the pandemic and other major events, Childs reverted to a simpler way of navigating and relating to the complex situations occurring in life by dealing with each moment as a color. Green began the journey as a way of seeing change through nature as a stepping stone for change in life. Blue continued the journey as a reminder of how nature steps in when things seem hopeless. Red became a story of passion when controlled and released. Indigo formed into the hopes for the future generations as they face situations unlike any our civilization has faced before.
Each color is a mood and a portal into those vibrations and perspectives. Combining multiple genres with an entire landscape of synthesizers custom-programmed for this album, Spectrum is unique in sound and presentation.
