20% discount for

Join us for a special pre-release listening event of New Moon, the forthcoming immersive ambient album from Christopher Willits, out October 10th on Ghostly International!

Immersed within Envelop’s 32-speaker immersive listening space, guests will experience New Moon’s eleven meditative compositions. Willits’ luminous guitar lines and textures blend with analog synths, deep bass, field recordings, and ethereal vocal harmonies. A casual Q&A will follow the listening session to help illuminate the process and ideas behind the album.

New Moon guides listeners on a journey of renewal, moving from darkness into light, while honoring the memory of Willits’ late friend and collaborator, Ryuichi Sakamoto. As co-founder and director of Envelop, Willits brings his expertise in spatial composition to create a deeply introspective and transformative evening of communal listening, inviting you to connect, reflect, and be enveloped by sound.

New Moon will be released by Ghostly International on October 10th, 2025
