East Forest is a unique and influential artist within the ambient and electronic music communities, known for crafting soundscapes that merge elements of nature with deep, introspective melodies. The project, primarily helmed by Trevor Oswalt, began as a singular pursuit in the late 2000s but has since evolved into a collaborative platform, incorporating live performances that often include elements of meditation and ceremony. East Forest's music is characterized by its ability to foster reflection and emotional exploration, blending field recordings, electronic production, and classical instrumentation.

The works of East Forest, like "Music For The Deck of The Titanic" and "Headwaters," showcase a profound understanding of musical storytelling, often addressing themes of human connection, nature, and the inner journey. Collaborations and remixes, including "Let You In (feat. East Forest)" and the "Tunnels (East Forest Remix)," exemplify Oswalt's versatility and willingness to intertwine his sound with the creative visions of others. Whether through the evocative expedition of "Burren" or the contemplative voyage in "Still Possible," East Forest's compositions invite listeners into a multi-layered experience of auditory healing and tranquil introspection.
