A track inspired by a kiss from very nice man

Sometimes the journey to the bar in my favourite disco has all the complexity of a journey through hyperspace — but once you negotiate all the hazards, there’s the wonderful person to serve you drinks. Recently it was a very nice person called Samantha..This track is for her:

I wanted to do something different. This is what came out. I hope you enjoy it?

This track incorporates the simple opera singer from Fluffy Audio, a library that features the voice of the fantastic soprano,Ji Min Oh.

For Angel:

One of my favourite activities is to walk along the sea shore and watch the stars come out as the sun sets. This track is an attempt to capture the energy of the moment when suddenly our view extends out into the universe.

I love the sky around sunset. It's a magical time. This track attempts to describe the energy and beauty of this special part of the day!

For Jeff.

I think this is the best track that I've produced so far. It was really inspired by the experience of coming across people who are so full of love, courage and action that they inspire hope in others. I hope you enjoy it. (This is slightly revised and shorter version in better quality; the mix is has not been changed)

For Kuba.

I'm not quite sure how to categorise this music. Originally it was going to be Orchestral Trance but it took on a life of its own. This track is quite different from much of my earlier music: I've spent a lot more time focussing on sound design and this track is the result of that effort. Listening to it, I think that it would probably sound better if its structure was a bit simpler, but I've spent too much time on it for now and I want to move on. But I might return to it in the future.

It's the first in a series of planned tracks inspired by the beautiful sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean. just a few minutes from my home. All comments welcome!

An instrumental version of Beacons of Hope

The first track in a new project celebrating the best qualities in each of us. (This is a reissue to remove a few infelicitous seconds midway through the track!)
