Album Out In Spring 2011
Interview From WorldWideWaddie
Interview from Glamazon.

Ameriie: It's completely different! It's not a hip hop, R&B, soul album at all. It's called CYMATIKA Volume 1, I'll have other volumes as well.
Cymatika is the study of visual sound. They'll put sand on a plate that is hooked up to wires and with certain sounds, vibration goes through to the plate and creates a geometric shape out of the sand. You'll go from C note to D note and when you change the note, the sand's formation changes. When you go back to C, the sand goes back to its original formation. It's fascinating.
As humans, we're all energy and light and spirit; and sound plays a part in that because sound is simply vibrating energy. That's what this album is about...about life and who we are, not being afraid to be who we are, and not forgetting our spirit.
Coutura: How would you describe the sound of the album?
Ameriie: The album is influenced by new wave and acid house, which I explored in my album "Because I Love It" in 2007, which was released in Europe.
For the fans who heard that, they'll say "Oh, I could see this coming." For fans who loved the first album, they're going to be like "What is this?!" (laughs) But I grew up listening to everything, and this is where I am now. And it feels right for me.
Coutura: Going back to visual sound, I know you recently changed your name (from "Amerie" to "Ameriie"). Is that related at all?
Ameriie: I added an extra "i" because the vibration of it is very positive. But that's just me, it's not related to the album. I've wanted to do that for a while, just like with my hair color. You know, a lot of times we make decisions based on fear and are scared about what other people are going to say. I think once we realize that we should relinquish that fear, anything is possible because there's nothing holding us back. And this music just really reflects me following my passion and letting go of fear and embracing where I'm at right now in my life.
Coutura: So empowering! Speaking of empowerment, I'm sure you're excited for this weekend in Chicago with the Chicago Youth Center and Softsheen-Carson event. Tell us all about it.

The songs recorded for the project include edgy new track titles such as ‘Outside Your Body’, ‘Run For Cover’ and ‘Intimidated’. It’s not yet known who produced the cuts and what musical direction they fall in but he says “I’m very proud of Amerie. I’m loving ‘Cymatika’. It feels so good!”
Rap Up
Quote:
The bride-to-be exclusively revealed to Rap-Up.com that the follow-up to last year’s In Love & War will be titled Cymatica Vol. 1. Cymatics, derived from the Greek word wave, means the study of visible sound and vibration.
No release date has been set, but A did previously tell us that she wants to incorporate her newly-acquired guitar skills on the project.
Quote:
“‘Cymatica Vol I’ is a completely different sound than ‘In Love & War’…still cooking-more new wave & 80’s”
She's Starting Work With DJ Felix Da Housecat!
