Zephyram is an exploration of 2 relationships. The first element is that of a Zephyr: a soft and gentle breeze; the second (as those eagle eyed science fiction fans among you have already noticed) refers to the vacuum of the final frontier, lying just beyond the atmosphere. These two elements will never meet, yet they exist precisely juxtaposed, with no barrier between them.

Two musical elements are similarly tangent. Two tonalities: harmonic minor and phrygian, exist as above, but unlike the zephyr and the vacuum, these two can intermingle.
