MEDEDELING !!
Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

THE HISTORY
Throughout the years I have composed and recorded several pieces that
weren’t specifically created for an album. Sometimes, these ended up being
reworked, or parts of them were woven into other pieces of music that
managed to make it onto one of my records. Sometimes, however, they ended
up as just single pieces that I archived, waiting for the right moment to
either finish them or release them in one form or another.
Earlier this year, I recorded a new piece of music that qualified as one
such “orphaned” piece. I was very pleased with how it turned out and was
looking for a vehicle to share. Releasing it as a single would not have
made much sense, so I went back into my archives to see if I could put
together a collection of this with others I had in cold storage as one
cohesive project. I found enough with a common sonic ground to make up an
entire album.
My methodology left me with a few of the pieces dating as far back as over
20 years ago. A massive flood in 2017 wiped out the drives that held those
multi-tracks, so I had to recreate or re-record some of the material, but
luckily, some survived intact, just as they were originally mixed.
Charging The Electric Dream is my first album that does not have any
collaborators or guest musicians, making it a very personal record. If I
were to describe it, I would say that it is an album of what I like to call
headphone music, because it plays out more like a soundtrack that
stimulates the listener’s imagination.
Like many of my other records, you can hear some of my inspirations
throughout the album. There are definitely nods to Brian Eno, Wendy Carlos,
Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, and Jean Michel Jarre. It is not a Prog album
per se, but definitely something that Prog fans can appreciate. |
