I’m proud to announce the release of my first project from 1989 on both CD as well as a digital download version.

This project must have been initialized somewhere early 1989, after I was fully introduced to the world of electronic music three year earlier, when I have been gathering several ideas that should form the roots to a complete album. The conceptual idea was to have an introduction of some short stories, followed by a main long track, that would complete the story. This all would then be released on a compact cassette.

The whole project was finished late 1989. All tracks are influenced by sounds, colors, and anything else that happened around me at the time. Some of the titles are inspired by Jack Vance’ fantasy novels.

The main instrument used on Almery was the Elka Synthex, supported by the SCI Pro-One. Korg Mono/Poly and Yamaha CS20M. Rhythm and sequencer parts were all synth’s internal sequencers, plus a Roland CSQ600 and drum computers (Korg DDD1 and Roland TR808).

While it has now nearly reached it’s 20th anniversary, it is now time to have Almery released into the digital world, hopefully for everyone to enjoy.

NOTE: The first 10 copies will be accompanied with a free extra compilation CD of my work since 1989. The compilation CD is called "Dreaming Angels".

"Dreaming Angels" will also be available for purchase soon.
