Tiamatu by Tiamatu

Tiamatu is the beginning.

A self-titled debut from Michael Crain and Jason Carey, this album unfolds as a tribute to the world’s oceans and the silent journey water takes creating life. Inspired by the Sumerian name for ocean, Tiamatu moves slowly and with reverence—layering ambient textures, field recordings, and elemental tones that drift like memory.

Each piece invites stillness, reflection, and return. A listening experience shaped less like a composition and more like a current—subtle, immersive, alive.

“It’s a tribute to the world’s oceans and the journey water takes creating life,” says Carey. “Michael and I explore, in sound, our deepest feelings about the beauty, depth, and awareness protecting our environment.”

This is where the mythology begins.

Tiamatu exists beneath the surface.

Its music moves like water—slow, immersive, and quietly immense. Sounds rise from depth, carrying echoes of ancient memory and unspoken emotion, then fade back into silence.

This is not music that demands attention.
It is a place to descend into, and remain.
