The time had come for me to express my thoughts and feelings on subjects that matter to me, and to make a record that sounded just exactly the way I wanted it to. I had ideas about creating a vast sonic landscape full of both earthly and other worldly imagery, but I wanted to do so without using synthesisers or samples, I wanted to be able to ‘play’ the sounds much the same as I like to ‘play’ the mixing desk and actually perform the mix rather than setting it up like a static oil painting! So every single sound, every element has been performed by a musician, recorded organically, but then processed with various effects and treatments to create living, breathing textures, a complexity of sound all coming from the point source of a musical performance. So there are no synthesisers or samples on this record at all, except for the moog taurus bass pedals which I use in place of bass guitar on some tracks as I love its deep, sonorous sound. My interests in science, cosmology and the wondrous areas where they meet spirituality and the meta-physical such as quantum physics and philosophy have provided my lyrical themes while my experience with ambient music has remained present during the transition to song writing yet I have been able to experiment with more rhythmical elements thanks to my awesome drummers, Sacha and Liam both of whom have a truly infectious groove! And I am incredibly fortunate to have met Danny Thompson who kindly added his great, growling bass, ‘Victoria’ to the title track. I hope this album takes you somewhere close to the joyful aural world I am blessed to find myself in. - Harvey Summers
