Our Work
Time Zones
Album Details and Release Video
This is our secnd album. It will be released on March 10th 2023.
Esthesis Quartet’s (esˈthēsə̇s) second record Time Zones is an exploration of the connections we build across distances. With each member of the band living in a different time zone, the idea of connecting simultaneously from different spaces is something Esthesis is deeply familiar with.

“Blue Light,” by Dawn Clement, is about the blinking of traffic lights when driving home late at night.
“Brush Fire,” by Tina Raymond, was inspired by the Woolsey Malibu fire in 2018.
“The New Yorker,” by Dawn Clement, is based on the poem “Scylla and Charybdis” by Megan Fernandez.
“Hollywood,” is a reference to Dawn Clement’s nickname given by Matt Wilson because of Dawn's Sunglasses. In this band, Tina is Hollywood.
“Serial,” by Tina Raymond, was inspired by the podcast Serial.
“First Light,” by Elsa Nilsson, extends the peaceful moment when we first wake up, before we remember the movements of our existence.
“Getting Through,” by Elsa Nilsson is about the process of pushing through resistance, both internal and external.
