about

If you like New Age music from the 80's and 90's such as Patrick O'Hearn, Mike Oldfield, and Karl Jenkins' Adiemus, then hopefully you'll like this music from award-winning composer, recording artist, and performer Andrew Colyer.

Written between 1998-2000, the album was produced by Lilli Farrell, featuring artwork from Executive Producer Kirk Reinert. The music was written and arranged specifically to be a "soundtrack" for Kirk's artwork, and for the Japanese audience where Kirk has been one of the top-selling artists for over 25 years.

The instrumentation that Andrew used for the album includes:
--1908 Steinway "Vertegrande"
--Roland RD-300
--Roland JX-1
--Roland Sound Canvas
--Kawai K4 Sound Module
--Boss DR-660 Rhythm Composer

Track 3 - "Winter Reflections" is the only solo piece on the album. All other tracks have additional instrumentation.

Tracks 9 and 10 - "Synchronicity" into "Aurora Dream" - were recorded on the first take, one long 20-minute recording without stopping.
