About four tracks from my new CD are being featured on this Astreuxworld radio. Which is very cool. It's a great radio station, BTW. If you are producing Amibent, Space, or new age music it's somewhere you probably want to be as it gets tens of thousands of streams a month has an active forum and they tweet about playlists, new artists and etc...

BENEATH THE SURFACE: I've been enchanted by Ed's swirling Didgeridoo compositions for some years now, ever since the original Mixposure site came up... he did a lot of collaborations, & I reviewed a lot of them (you know, just those "quick" track reviews that we all enjoyed doing on Mix back in those earlier days), as well as an INTERVIEW.  Something that's a sure testament to how much I really enjoy a musical set is if I actually purchase it (I've only bought, maybe, 5 or 6 albums in the last 20 years)... well, as soon as I heard the samples, I knew this one was well worth the paltry fee for a full-album digital download ($8, at Ed Drury Music).  An even dozen magical tracks that will stun your ears & penetrate you all the way down to your core!  Subtle, yet (somehow) heavy rhythms, along with magical sound bytes, propel the listener down the same trails that I imagine Alice travelled on her mystical treks through unreality... Ed infuses this all with beautiful and pleasing passages that reveal what the heart of a musician is really all about - if they've transcended the "normal", that is.  Counterpoint to this is that he's learned his lessons well enough to know that someone playing this spooky instrument who "leans on it too hard" will disappoint the listener... no "showy" or "braggardly" moments here... just the natural spirit of a player emerging to calm the listener to the point where their own spirit can join in the celebration.  One of the strongest experiences was "Chasing the Wind"... you'll think you're in a Native American lodge, soaring over new and adventurous mountains and valleys... but, my favorite composition was "Streetlight Desire"... just like the title, it's sultry, a bit dark, but alluring from start to finish.  The keyword for this album is "journey"... that's exactly what it feels like... an adventure-filled trek, & it gets a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED from these old ears, for listeners of all persuasions.

 I found this video great as I know several of the artists interviewed, even having worked with a few of them. It describes the underground electronic music scene in the US during the 1980's. An exciting time of DIY cassette releases, networking and experimentation. It's available here (among other places.) http://www.pogus.com/TAM-1.html

Or go to the publisher's page for it on True Age Records :

 My new album CD may get some plays on 91.3 FM WWUH in Hartford CT Sunday morning 9:00 am to 1:00 pm Eastern Time. If you want to find out along with me, check in tomorrow morning during those hours and listen along, check the playlist and see what ambient artists are played. I know I always find some new music there. The show's website is http://www.teltan.org/ambience.htm and the station is at http://wwuh.org/ .
