Ayla Schafer's catalog begins in 2017 with Dive into water, and water has stayed her central image ever since. Her 2018 releases, Viento de Atacama and Ima Adama, carry the imprint of her South American travels. In 2020 and 2021 came a burst of singles, remixes and albums, including Silent Voices, Kindred Souls and ARAMARA ~ VOZ D'ÁGUA. From 2022 the work gathers around Honour The Water and its remixes, and by 2025 she is releasing at full tilt. Her 2026 releases include the album Mâtîrja (Ancestral Mothers). Throughout, she sings in Spanish, English and Proto-Celtic, as a ceremonial musician and "Voice of the Earth." Most entries are singles, so a listening guide here means following one river through many channels.
