      'Son Of Chi' is the latest project of Rotterdam-based multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Hanyo van Oosterom. Van Oosterom's prolific career spans multiple decades and genres; among countless projects he has been involved in, he is known for founding the Dutch ambient collective CHI in the early eighties, and in recent years for his prolific collaboration with CHI co-founder Jacobus Derwort as 'Chi Factory'. Following Derwort's passing in 2019, van Oosterom decided to close the CHI circle with the birth of 'Son Of Chi'.

      'We Carry Eden' represents the culmination of diverse artistic contributions and a deep connection to ancient storytelling traditions. Van Oosterom's long-time collaborator Omar Ka plays a central role; hailing from the West African nomadic Fulani tradition of storytelling, Ka's voice is woven throughout the album, responding to the collage of field recordings and sounds collected by van Oosterom.
