Heavy Color's surreal and cinematic compositions explore spiritual jazz, traditional music, electronic and avant-psychedelia, spawning the description Post-World Music. Their first album Arise Ye Spiritual Machine (2014) re-contextualized archival music in a modern beat-tape format. River Passage (2018), a collaboration with musicians in Eastern Congo that combines elements of Afrobeat, minimalist Electronica, and futurist Hip Hop, spans physical environments, cultures and languages. In 2020 Heavy Color composed an original score for the film Invisible Hand, a documentary about the Rights of Nature Movement produced by Actor Mark Ruffalo. The resulting album, which blurred the line between minimalist chamber music and ambient electronic worlds was released by the experimental label, Curious Music.

In 2021 Heavy Color will release Soft Light, a recombination of 60’s spiritual jazz, 70’s fusion, meditations in pattern-based music, instrumental hip hop, and psychedelic pop, as well releasing a suite of music composed and performed in the moments before, during and just after the Sunrise and Sunset. Heavy Color is Ben Cohen and Sam Woldenberg.
