Release notes:
--------------
Over the last 15 years Tom Middleton has earned an enviable reputation as a
producer, composer, DJ, compiler and one of the most original minds to emerge
from the dance revolution of the early 90s. His work as one half of the
groundbreaking electronica groups Global Communication & Jedi Knights, as well
as his in demand DJ sets are the stuff of legend among fans of electronic music
as well as his fellow artists. This album is his most ambitious project to
date.
Tom describes this very personal project by saying: "Eno, Vangelis and Tomita
are big inspirations, but you'll pick up references to romantic impressionist
and soundtrack composers; Ravel, Debussy, Satie, Vaughn Williams and Steve Reich
to Ennio Morricone, John Barry, Thomas Newman, John Williams and Craig Armstrong
for example. In the same breath I'd name check the likes of electronica
producers The Boards Of Canada, early Aphex, Black Dog, Zero 7, Air, Massive
Attack and The Orb. Additionally the music is fused with the melody and emotion
of Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, U2, The Police and Prince. Classical,
Electronica, Jazz and Pop, all clues to my musical personality and those
apparent subconscious influences."
