Joel St. Julien (b.1980) is a Haitian-American composer, musician, songwriter, and sound artist based in San Francisco. Joel has written music for documentaries, short / feature films, podcasts, and dance. He is a firm believer in experimentation / fusion with acoustic and electronic elements in sound oscillating through escapism and the mysticism of the present tense. Joel has shared music at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the San Francisco Electronic Music Festival, Salesforce Tower, Stanford University’s CCRMA, Gray Area, CounterPulse Festival, Land and Sea Gallery, Spectrum NYC, TED Conference, Frameline, Mill Valley Film Festival, and PBS. His music has also been featured and reviewed in Resident Advisor, The Wire, Disquiet, KQED, Foxy Digitalis, a closer listen, Fault Radio, Dublab, and many more.

"Creating music has always been a therapeutic process for me. This piece
explores the journey of letting go of the things that no longer serve you, as well
as accepting life as it is. Each movement captures a specific phase of realization.
Mvt 1 is called “Clearing”, Mvt. 2 “Parts”, and Mvt. 3, “Reset Mothering”. They are
containers that provide an invitation to nurture ourselves.

Many thanks to Third Coast Percussion for going on this journey with me, and
bringing my ideas to life. It has been an amazing experience! You’ve all been
extremely kind, welcoming and patient, helping me to understand the process
from moving music from the screen onto paper!

Lastly, so much of what I do artistically can happen because of the unconditional
love and support from my partner Rhea and my dear children, Olive and Jean-
Michel. Thank you so much" - Joel St. Julien
