After listening to Multisensory Aesthetic Experience, Mae played an acoustic set for us. Everyone shouted out some songs they wanted to hear, and the guys played a handful of songs that hadn’t been played in several years. It was an intimate jam session. At this point, we had been at the studio for nearly seven hours, but there was still one more special event. One by one, we went into a dark room inside the studio for Virtual Reality. Again, I don’t want to spoil too much for anyone going to future Mae Days, but my goodness. Listening to “Light” while fully experiencing it… I have no words. And that’s the point. You can feel music, sometimes is not linguistic, it goes beyond those boundaries. As Mae explained, words are just what we use to express how we feel because that’s what we know. There is so much more beyond words that we haven’t even thought about yet.

I am so incredibly grateful to have been part of the first Mae Day. Thank you David, Jacob, Zach, as well as Schematic Studios + the Mae Team for making this happen! Also, all of the lovely people that I met last night! Multisensory Aesthetic Experience is available November 30th and Mae’s EP 3.0 is available now. Please, pick up a vinyl, go to a tour date and experience these songs live. I promise you will re-think everything you thought you knew about music and you will feel it in a whole new way.
