Christopher Tignor - The Art Of SurrenderThe Art of Surrender marks a return to life, sown from primal impulses and hard won emotional truths. Unrestrained melodic rapture soars above a relentless kick drum, speaking a need to move, to dance, to love. The music is as ambitious as it's origins are personal. Tignor plays with scale, crafting multi movement epics alongside one minute miniatures. The smallest, most fragile violin gestures, where the finger barely touches the string to extract

The Art of Surrender marks a return to life, sown from primal impulses and hard-won emotional truths. Unrestrained melodic rapture soars above a relentless kick drum, speaking a need to move, to dance, to love. The music is as ambitious as it's origins are personal. Tignor plays with scale, crafting multi-movement epics alongside one-minute miniatures. The smallest, most fragile violin gestures, where the finger barely touches the string to extract natural harmonics exist side by side with angular, exotic melodies, asymmetric rhythms, and rapid-fire string crossings. On this LP, Tignor digs even more deeply into the violin and it's technicolor reimaginings under his electroacoustic treatments. The album title refers to the creative process of letting go of expectations, submitting to the will of the creative process. Following a collapsed relationship that left Tignor alone half-time with his daughter, this period was also one of surrendering to a dark unknown, rebuilding life's basic meanings from passion and creative will. Likewise, Tignor's unwavering approach to live performance embraces the rewards of taking risks: using his custom setup with meticulously controlled violin processing and drum triggered synths, this LP, like it's predecessors, was created without pre-recorded tracks or live looping, allowing bodily gesture to invite audiences into the process of music making. The first single, Ritual of a Thousand Limbs is a reference to the extended solo electro-acoustic instrument Tignor has created, processing his violin through software using pedals that also perform synths, an instrument played with both feet and hands including a kick drum with custom triggering software. Likewise, the title alludes to the 1000 arms and hands of the Avalokiteshvara, a bodhisattva associated with compassion. The song weaves back and forth between this impulse and it's more somatic, lustful urges, a study in the duality of desire and acceptance. The video for the work is a collaboration with girlfriend Rachelle Somma, who's unique, award-winning approach to dance blends pole-dancing with modern forms to create a spellbinding interpretation completely unique to both mediums. Off-Centered Hearts imagines a pas de deux between lovers yearning, like so many, to make their own asymmetrical ways of being fit as one. The work's spellbinding dance contains some of the album's most breathtaking, quietest confessional moments, planting seeds which eventually bloom into a huge, lyrical release driven by processed violin octaves above profound, kick-drum triggered bass. Forms in a Flame, elides multiple scenes together to create the album's largest scale journey, ambitiously blending heartrending synth and violin elligies alongside hyper-rhythmic, dovetailing counterpoint built from Tignor's interactive "mirrored violin" processing. In contrast, the album's one minute closer, Would that I Could is Tignor at his most concise, leaving listeners with a perfect parting prayer, suggesting we discover which, if any, ideals we might consider worthy of surrender.

A warm hug from this fantastic blanket!
Color: Cream, Size: Throw(50" X 60")
This is my go to blanket when I want to cozy up on the couch. So soft and warm, it’s like snuggling a hug! Washes well and lasts forever years. I replaced mine after 4 years with the same thing in a different color option! Perfect size to cover up and also a nice accent piece on the back of the couch.

In Awe
Color: Tie-dye Taupe, Size: Throw(50" X 60")
this is one of my favorite blankets I’ve ever ordered from Amazon! We use it on our couch. The colors are absolutely beautiful and stunning. It looks very earthy and kind of grounds my living room decor. It is very soft and cozy as well so it serves as many functions in my room! Probably will order another one soon for the other chair. The quality is superb.

The best ever made by anyone is the super, soft, faux fur throw/blanket by BEDSURE!
Color: Black, Size: Twin(60" X 80")
I received my Bedsure super soft Faux Fur twin blanket on 2/3/26. I ordered the black in the twin, 60” x 80” because I love to wrap a throw around me & a regular throw is just not large enough to keep me comfortable. Bedsure bedding or relaxing throws is never a bad choice. I’ve purchased numerous bedding collections & was amazed at the quality of their collections & I will NEVER buy anything BUT BEDSURE bedding. This Bedsure super soft Faux Fur, double sided twin size blanket is absolutely gorgeous & beyond my expectations even though the brand is BEDSURE. The item came nicely packaged & with instructions to just put in the dryer on low to fluff up the blanket which I did & it came out so super soft & elegant. This awesome faux fur blanket is the softest that I’ve ever had. I’m so glad that I read the reviews to help me decide what size to order & the twin size is perfect for me. You can never go wrong with BEDSURE bedding or throws. The Black Faux Fur twin blanket looks elegant on the back of the couch or chair. If I could give this product 10 stars I would. This item was an amazing value for the money. There was no smell to the blanket at all & the quality is fantastic; I’ve never had anything so super soft & is machine washable & can be dried in the dryer. The gorgeous fabric & depth in color is so rich & awesome.
