The world feels fragile these days. Change is everywhere, tensions run high, and uncertainty can be overwhelming. I find solace in creating and in sharing moments of love and joy through music.
A Portal To Quiet Rivers - a journey through rivers, jungles, mountains, and stars. Inspired by the deep soundworlds of Steve Roach and the Berlin School spirit of Tangerine Dream, it invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and wander freely in sound.
I’ve been quietly working on this new ambient album for a year since releasing Ambient Me Tomorrow. As someone who usually works fast and impatiently, juggling five things at once but somehow finishing them all, slowing down to shape an ambient album was a true challenge. Yet I felt - and many people I spoke with agreed — that we need this more than ever.
If you’re like me, this is an invitation to slow your pace, let your thoughts drift, and dream a little - perhaps even like a happy child in a jungle, surrounded by quiet rivers.

Each product is a high-quality recording — an album, a session, or a performance — made to help you focus, relax, or simply enjoy sound as an art form.
How does it work
You can preview each piece, but to enjoy full playback you’ll need to purchase it. Once you do, it unlocks in your player for unlimited streaming whenever you want.
Do I need an app?
No — everything plays instantly in your browser.
Is playback fast worldwide?
Yes — streaming runs on a global CDN, so it works quickly no matter where you are, even on vacation.
Am I supporting you directly?
Absolutely. Every purchase here goes straight to me, not to big platforms.

Who am I
I’m Caught In Joy — an independent artist creating analog-driven sessions, albums, and live performances. Every sound you hear is recorded in my studio with real instruments and analog hardware synths, shared here without middlemen.
