Album Notes

A live album from Brooks deForest featuring his violins and synths mixture, only this time live in England during 2005/06.

If you haven't heard Brooks techno orchestral before, then this is a great album to get famliar. 12 previously unreleased 3 to 7 minute bursts of melodic, and anthemic tracks. The instrumental artist is firmly based in pop, with melodies and hooks that will appeal to dance music listeners.

Recorded in sessions and live from the fall of 2005 to early January 2006, a real tour de forest of Brook's music. Tracks like Grass Valley, and The Lizard are in Brooks deForest's regular anthemic electronica style. Providence and Starcross are layed back and chilled out like something from Groove Armada.
