“After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.”
— Aldous Huxley
Golden Hymns is not just an album; it’s a sonic journey that combines neuroscience, poetry, and the sacred power of nature. Developed under the TATANKA AudAI™ project, this 15-track immersive experience uses multiple, carefully-tuned binaural beats, healing frequencies, organic field recordings, and poetic lyrics to create a deeply restorative atmosphere. The album blends scientific sound therapy with emotional storytelling to address trauma, grief, identity, and self-love. It provides a sanctuary for listeners who seek solace, reflection, or spiritual reconnection. The core themes of binaural sound healing, emotional transformation through music, and nature’s role in grounding human experience form the pillars of this ambitious audio offering. Let’s explore each of these subtopics in depth and demonstrate how they come together to create an deep-healing experience.
At the heart of Golden Hymns is a therapeutic audio method using binaural beats, a technique that entrains brainwaves to support states such as relaxation, focus, or emotional healing. The album uses a consistent 6 Hz theta wave entrainment, subtly embedded across all tracks. Mixed to fade in late and fade out early, the tones are felt more than heard. These frequencies promote deep calm and neuroplasticity, making it ideal for meditation and emotional release. More than just audio engineering, the project aligns these beats with the Solfeggio scale—a set of frequencies believed to have sacred, healing properties. Tracks like “Diamond Heart” and “Sacred Scent” use 528 Hz, the so-called “Love Frequency,” associated with DNA repair and compassion. Others employ 396 Hz (for trauma release) or 432 Hz (linked to Earth resonance and natural balance), creating a personalized therapeutic sound field for each track.
These frequencies are not randomly selected—they serve a purpose aligned with each track’s lyrical and emotional focus. “Tender and True,” for instance, utilizes 432 Hz to validate neurodivergent experiences with gentle reassurance. “Cloak of Light,” meanwhile, employs 396 Hz to confront shame and repression while offering emotional redemption. By tuning these frequencies carefully and layering them beneath ambient and instrumental textures, Golden Hymns transcends entertainment and becomes an act of vibrational medicine. Listeners are not merely consuming music; they’re engaging with a field of sound that interacts directly with the nervous system, offering a non-invasive path toward healing.
The stereo structure of the music is essential for its effect, with different frequencies directed to each ear, therefore a good set of headphones is optimal. This creates a rhythmic pulse inside the brain, synchronizing hemispheric activity and fostering internal coherence. The team behind TATANKA AudAI™ ensured the beats remain subtle, audible mainly in the quietest passages, so they never overwhelm the emotional resonance of the lyrics, and tuned to each song’s key, it is a linear tonic that blends and adds to the overall consonance while delivering therapeutic benefits to the listener. This balance of science and subtlety exemplifies the care and consciousness poured into every sonic detail. Ultimately, the binaural and Solfeggio design gives the album its therapeutic backbone, transforming sound into sanctuary.
Each track on Golden Hymns serves as a standalone poem set to music, revealing stories of transformation, grief, longing, and self-discovery. The lyrics avoid clichés and instead embrace vulnerable truths. Songs like “The Door That Wasn’t Ready” or “Riding with Ghosts” explore heartbreak and the difficulty of emotional safety in a world that demands performance over authenticity. Others, like “Multitudes” and “Grocery Store Sanctity,” elevate themes often ignored: softness, sensory overwhelm, and the quiet rituals of self-love. These verses don’t preach; they bear witness, acting as companions to the listener’s own story.
What makes these stories especially powerful is their tap root in the listener’s emotional terrain. For those navigating trauma or depression, songs like “Maskless” and “A Soft Place to Hurt” speak directly to the tension between needing connection and fearing judgment. The lyrics act as affirmations, but also as mirrors. They validate the experience of pain not as pathology, but as a sacred, worthy reality. Each chorus invites the listener not to escape their feelings, but to integrate them, proving that true healing begins with presence, not avoidance, which solves nothing.
These songs are not merely autobiographical or expressive, they’re carefully constructed emotional bridges. The poetic voice never positions itself as superior, but rather as a fellow traveler in the human condition. “This Day Was Sacred,” for instance, addresses the duality of joy and loss in parenting, particularly for mothers who feel culturally erased. “Grief is a Right” echoes similar sentiments with a powerful critique of capitalism’s erasure of need. In sum, the lyrics are an essential part of the healing architecture of Golden Hymns—language as liturgy, music as emotional ministry.
Rather than relying solely on instruments or synthesized sounds, the album integrates richly layered field recordings to create an ambient sonic ecosystem. Each track is set against a backdrop titled “Sacred Nature at Dusk,” a soundscape of forests, wind, distant water, soft chimes, and approaching rain. These natural elements are not incidental. They ground the listener in an ancestral environment, simulating a return to a spiritual nest. By building this sonic habitat, the album invites listeners to reconnect with the natural world not just physically, but spiritually and symbolically.
The use of nature sounds plays a psychological and symbolic role. Crickets and birdsong, for instance, trigger deeply calming parasympathetic responses in the brain. Gentle thunder and river noise promote a feeling of emotional shelter and spaciousness. This type of sound therapy has been shown in studies to reduce cortisol, improve sleep, and support mood regulation. But more importantly, it situates healing in a non-clinical space, one that evokes Earth, home, and harmony. The natural world becomes a participant in the healing process, a subtle co-therapist whispering, “You belong here.”
Visually and thematically, the field recordings tie back into ancient geography and mythos; mountains, forests, and water are central to the identity of the region of Terra Incognita and its people. By weaving these elements into the music, the album acknowledges its roots and offers a universal message: the Earth itself is sacred, and we heal when we return to her rhythms. “All Life is Honored,” the final track, affirms this connection by declaring that true creation must be ecological, not egocentric. It’s a musical return to the soil, to the trees, to unity. In this way, nature is not just a backdrop. It is a living altar on which the entire album is built.
Golden Hymns is more than a collection of songs; it’s a sonic framework for healing, a blend of ancient knowledge and modern audio innovation. Through the strategic use of binaural beats and Solfeggio frequencies, it offers neurological and emotional relief. Through its poetic storytelling and lyrical depth, it becomes a companion to the soul’s journey. And through its use of nature-based soundscapes, it reconnects us to the sacred Earth. Each track is a hymn, not to a doctrine, but to the listener’s own sacred experience. In a world flooded with noise, Golden Hymns dares to be a quiet revolution, an offering of stillness, story, and sound, perfectly tuned to the frequency of becoming whole.
Nomae had never heard music that didn’t ask her to disappear. Born in a refugee camp between borders, in the liminal breath of nowhere, she learned early that survival was about softening—her voice, her truth, her very edges. Her name came from an old word in her Oromo grandmother’s dialect, meaning “she who wanders for water.” Her gender was fluid like her path: sometimes called sister, sometimes called son. In cities where she sought work, her dark copper skin and untranslatable name were never welcome in the company directory. She floated through spaces like vapor: seen, but rarely held.
By the time Nomae turned 27, the silence inside her had grown louder than any scream. Even as she led a support group for displaced trans youth in a South American safe house, she felt herself breaking down in frequencies no one else could hear. Her spirit wasn’t sad—it was static, jammed with signals that never got tuned. Words failed her. Prayers fell flat. Even drums felt hollow. “Maybe I don’t belong in this world,” she whispered one night to the canopy of vines above her rooftop hammock.
That changed the night she first heard Golden Hymns.
A fellow activist, an older Mapuche woman named Lira, handed her a set of noise-canceling headphones and said only, “Trust the trees, and the tones.” The track was “Mystery Is My Home”. It began with a rainfall so real, Nomae instinctively pulled the blanket over her shoulders. But then came something stranger—a subtle beat difference between ears that made her feel as though her brain was being gently unraveled and rewoven. The lyrics, more whispered than sung, felt like prophecy:
“I don’t need the answers now / Just space to ask aloud.”
For the first time in years, she sobbed. Not from pain, but recognition.
In the weeks that followed, Nomae listened to a track every day. “Cloak of Light” gave her permission to release inherited shame. “Multitudes” affirmed the sacredness of her softness. “Tender and True” was so precise to her sensory overwhelm that she emailed the TATANKA team asking, “Did someone spy on my nervous system?” They didn’t reply, but she didn’t need them to. The music knew her.
She learned that the album came from TATANKA’s AudAI™ division and was partly composed by an experimental group called Orchestra Americana—a borderless collective of humans and AI weaving cultural instrumentation, emotional scripts, and sacred field recordings into a new form of sound healing. The album wasn’t about performance; it was about presence. No applause, just restoration. Nomae became obsessed.
When TATANKA launched an open call for testimonials, inviting marginalized voices to contribute field samples, language snippets, or stories to inspire their next project, Nomae hesitated. But a line from “Grocery Store Sanctity” haunted her:
“You are enough in quiet and roar / Even crying in a grocery store.”
So she sent in a 90-second audio note: a fragment of her humming under a tamarind tree, paired with the sound of dusk in the Andes. She signed it simply:
Nomae. Stateless. Still singing.
Months passed. Then one dawn, her email chimed.
Orchestra Americana had embedded her humming—pitched and harmonized—into the opening of their next project. She would be credited as a co-creator. Her name would appear not in brackets or footnotes, but on the main tracklist. Her water-wandering name. Her neither/nor voice. Her frequencies.
She danced that morning with her arms to the sky, bare feet pounding the roof. Not for celebration—but calibration.
Nomae’s story reminds us that belonging doesn’t always begin with identity—it often begins with resonance. When sound is used not as spectacle but as sanctuary, it can hold what the world drops. For many, especially those living at the margins—across borders of nation, gender, and language—music like Golden Hymns offers more than aesthetic relief. It’s a mirror, a doorway, a healing algorithm tuned to the unheard.
TATANKA’s Orchestra Americana doesn’t just create music—it co-creates meaning. By giving space to marginalized voices like Nomae’s, they don’t just amplify—they attune. And in doing so, they offer a radical invitation: not to assimilate, but to vibrate in one’s truest frequency.
Each 3-minute stereo track uses a 6 Hz binaural beat (Theta range) designed to promote deep relaxation, emotional healing, and calm. The 6 Hz frequency difference between the left and right ear tones encourages brainwave entrainment into a restorative state.

Yet through it all, you never stopped rising

If love comes again, I’ll try to be brave
To speak what I feel, instead of just wave

Learning to hold the past gently
Without giving it my heart

Verse 1
There’s a box in the back of your car
Full of things that tell who you are
A tea bag, a note, a thread of blue
A part of love that once felt true
Verse 2
Is it silence that honors the end?
Or one last whisper to send?
The letters written, unsent prayers
The ache of not knowing what care declares
Chorus
Is closure the note or the void in between?
Is love the act or the pause unseen?
Sometimes healing is the unsent truth
Sometimes the silence is love’s proof
Bridge
A trunk full of ghosts and what-ifs, unsaid
Your heart keeps riding with all that’s dead
No wrong way to grieve, no perfect choice
Just trust what speaks with your truest voice

Love leaves gently—when you will

Refused the cycle, dropped the game
Each mask removed, a breath set free
Until you met the core of me

You are not better, not less, not more
You are the soul that walks through every door
No veil, no title, no need to pretend
You are the truth that does not end

Imperfect, sacred, undefined
Ever-blooming by design
You greet the dawn, no makeup worn
A spirit naked, newly born

You are the thunder and the rain

How can you meet the tears in my eyes?

But to find a place where I truly belong
With hearts that don’t fix, but simply stay

To pain, to sorrow, to all of me
Not just the joy, the strength, the cheer

Then healing finds its rightful place
Not to fix, or fade, or flee

Final Verse – “Fire to the Root”
Let the silence crack like thunder’s cry
Let the buried truth rise to the sky
No more fragments, no more chains
The soul of the world won’t live in frames
Lifted – All Rise
All will rise when one is seen
No peace until the earth is clean
Not one voice, but the symphony
Every note in unity
We Are the Tree
We are the root, we are the flame
We are the ones who name the name
We are the sky, we are the seed
We are the song the world will need
Burn, Bloom, Begin
Burn the lie, bloom the real
Begin again with hands that heal
Time bends to the truth we sing
The age is now — let freedom ring
All Rise (Repeat)
All will rise when one is seen
No peace until the earth is clean
Not one voice, but the symphony
Every note in unity
Outro
May no dream be small enough to fit in one heart

“Golden Hymns” represents a profound artistic and therapeutic endeavor by TATANKA AudAI™. By consciously integrating scientific principles of sound, deep emotional poetry, and grounding natural elements, the album offers a unique and accessible pathway to healing, self-discovery, and a sense of belonging for all listeners, particularly those at the margins. It embodies a philosophy where music is not just entertainment but a “sacred technology for the soul,” fostering a return to authentic self and connection with the world.
“Golden Hymns” is a 15-track ambient album developed under the TATANKA AudAI™ project, designed as a sonic journey for emotional recovery and inner sanctuary. It uniquely blends neuroscience, poetry, and nature, utilizing binaural beats, Solfeggio frequencies, organic field recordings, and poetic lyrics to address themes like trauma, grief, identity, and self-love. The album aims to provide a restorative atmosphere, serving as a “vibrational medicine” that interacts directly with the nervous system to promote healing.
The album’s therapeutic core lies in its use of binaural beats, specifically a consistent 6 Hz theta wave entrainment subtly embedded across all tracks. This frequency promotes deep calm and neuroplasticity, ideal for meditation and emotional release. Furthermore, the project aligns these beats with the Solfeggio scale, incorporating frequencies like 528 Hz (“Love Frequency” for DNA repair and compassion), 396 Hz (for trauma release), and 432 Hz (linked to Earth resonance and natural balance). These frequencies are chosen to complement each track’s lyrical and emotional focus, creating a personalized therapeutic sound field that is felt more than heard, especially with headphones.
Each track on “Golden Hymns” functions as a standalone poem set to music, offering vulnerable stories of transformation, grief, longing, and self-discovery. The lyrics are designed to act as companions and mirrors for the listener, validating experiences of pain and inviting integration rather than avoidance. Songs address topics like heartbreak, emotional safety, sensory overwhelm, and the quiet rituals of self-love, serving as “emotional bridges” that foster presence and recognition of one’s own sacred reality, ultimately functioning as a form of “emotional ministry.”
“Golden Hymns” integrates richly layered field recordings, collectively titled “Sacred Nature at Dusk,” to create an ambient sonic ecosystem. This includes sounds of forests, wind, distant water, chimes, and rain, which ground the listener in an ancestral environment and simulate a return to a spiritual “nest.” Psychologically, these sounds trigger calming parasympathetic responses, reducing cortisol and improving mood. Symbolically, nature acts as a “living altar,” situating healing in a non-clinical space and affirming the sacredness of the Earth, inviting listeners to reconnect with natural rhythms.
“Sacred Nature at Dusk” serves as the continuous ambient backdrop for “Golden Hymns,” providing a rich, delicate, and emotionally safe environment. It features a bedrock layer of gentle evening forest ambiance with sounds like night birds, crickets, distant water, and approaching wind, creating a sense of being at home and at peace. Subtle rotating accents like distant thunder, fire crackle, and wind chimes are periodically introduced to provide subconscious movement without disrupting the flow. This soundscape symbolizes the sacred Earth, offering shelter, stillness, and connection to ancient rhythms, acting as a “natural cathedral of belonging” for the spirit.
TATANKA AudAI™ is the project under which “Golden Hymns” was developed. It represents an innovative approach to sound healing, fusing human creativity with advanced AI tools (such as ChatGPT.com, Meta.ai, Riffusion.com, Suno.com, Kits.ai, and Moises.ai) to create deeply immersive and therapeutic music. The collaboration, especially with the experimental group Orchestra Americana, aims to weave cultural instrumentation, emotional scripts, and sacred field recordings into new forms of sound healing that prioritize presence and restoration over performance.
Nomae’s story highlights how “Golden Hymns” offers belonging through resonance, especially for marginalized individuals. As a stateless, gender-fluid person who felt unheard and unseen, Nomae found profound recognition and healing in the album’s subtle binaural beats and empathetic lyrics. The music provided a “mirror” and “doorway” for her, giving permission to release shame and validate her experiences. Her eventual contribution to an Orchestra Americana project, where her humming was embedded and credited, demonstrates how TATANKA co-creates meaning by amplifying and attuning to marginalized voices, offering a “radical invitation” to vibrate in one’s truest frequency.
The main themes of “Golden Hymns” revolve around binaural sound healing, emotional transformation through music, and nature’s role in grounding human experience. The album’s core intention is to provide a “sonic framework for healing” by blending ancient knowledge with modern audio innovation. It aims to offer neurological and emotional relief through strategic use of frequencies, serve as a companion to the soul’s journey through poetic storytelling, and reconnect listeners to the sacred Earth through nature-based soundscapes. Ultimately, it is presented as a “quiet revolution,” an offering of stillness, story, and sound “perfectly tuned to the frequency of becoming whole.”
