Songs of the Earth 30th Anniversary Remaster
What would the Earth sound like if you could hear her breathing?
Songs of the Earth is the landmark 1995 album by Patrick Canavan & Alar Pahapill, newly remastered for its 30th anniversary. The remaster reveals greater depth, clarity, and space, allowing the music to breathe in a way it never could before. Re-released in 2025 on major streaming platforms, with Apple Music availability beginning in 2026.
Hey, I’m Pat Canavan.
I first released Songs of the Earth in 1995 with Alar Pahapill. Now, remastered for 2025, the album breathes new life into tracks like Morning, The Breath, Adesde, and LifeWater. This 30th Anniversary Remaster brings clarity and depth to a landmark work of ambient, world, and spiritual music — inviting listeners to hear the Earth’s voice in a whole new way.
Over more than three decades, I’ve created across many mediums as a Canadian composer, producer, and media artist. My catalog of 300+ songs is streamed in 170 countries worldwide, blending rock, pop, jazz, new-age, and consciousness-expanding soundscapes. My music has appeared in Canadian Tire, Sears, and Variety Club commercials (with Eugene Levy), and in award-winning films such as Amplifier and Masterpiece Monday.
In 2023, I produced and hosted Confessions of a Rock’n’Roll Cameraman, a 24-episode series with legendary Director of Photography Tony Wannamaker, one of the original creators of MuchMusic. The series dives into his behind-the-lens stories with icons like Cyndi Lauper, Bruce Springsteen, U4EA, Madonna, The Rolling Stones, Billy Idol, Duran Duran, and Van Halen — artists who defined a generation.
Earlier in my career, I collaborated with painter Ken Kirkby on Isumataq, producing the music and visuals for an installation unveiled at the House of Commons of Canada before touring museums, New York, and Ontario Place. Looking ahead, my upcoming full-length album Lighten Up (2026) continues my exploration of healing music tuned to A432 Hz.
I’m proud to be a member of the Screen Composers Guild of Canada (SCGC), the Canadian Media Producers Association (CMPA), the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada (SOCAN), the Canadian Independent Music Association (CIMA), and the Songwriters Association of Canada (S.A.C.).
