Wide Open Place, Vol 1: Psalm 1-15

My Robot Brain

15 tracks 1h 1m

Ancient prayers for modern trembling.

The Psalms were never meant to be read — they were meant to be sung, shouted, whispered, and wept. Written for stringed instruments and raw voices, performed in temple courts and shepherd fields, these are the songs that gave language to every human ache and hope.

This album attempts to blend ancient instrumentation and styles with modern production — letting three-thousand-year-old melodies breathe alongside contemporary sounds. Each song follows the Hebrew poetry faithfully: the parallelism, the Selah pauses, the emotional arc from desperate plea to quiet trust.

We attempted to keep to the exact translation as much as possible, only editing lyrics to capture the poetry of the original Hebrew and to resonate more with modern audiences rather than agricultural cultures.

These are evening prayers and morning cries. Songs for the shaken, the hemmed-in, the ones asking “who can show us anything good?”

Though you are hemmed in, he will lead you to a wide open place.
