"Rain" Background:
================
Second Sunset's Earth Ambience CDs are brought to you by Roy Rasera and Rod Ibieta. Each CD is crafted for rest, relaxation, and renewal of spirit by blending the sounds of nature with beautiful ambient music. The music provides an ideal accompaniment for Massage, Meditation, Yoga, other wellness practice, or just personal enjoyment and relaxation. "Rain" is the first in the Earth Ambience series.

Roy and Rod met in 1996 at a Benefit Show in Chandler, AZ where Roy was performing his poetry atop electronic music/soundscapes and Rod was performing a solo ambient piano piece. They have kept in touch for several years looking for the right time to collaborate -- September 2002 was that time!

Roy Rasera, an Oregonian since 2000, composes electronic soundscapes and mood music with calming sounds and hypnotic rhythms. Rod Ibieta, an Arizona resident, lives an active musical life through improvisational piano and mellifluous melodies. The complimentary styles of these two gifted artists give the Earth Ambience series a unique charm and sustaining calm.

10% of Second Sunset's profits are donated to arts education and community support organizations. Founded by Roy, Second Sunset(tm) publishes, produces, and promotes independent artists, musicians, and artisans.

We hope you enjoy "Rain"!
