Album Notes

Every once a while an utterly brilliant album comes along that defies categories and surprises you at every turn. The Hub is that kind of album. It beckons and gently embraces you while slowly twisting your head inside out every time you hear it. There are some pop song structures with vocals and lyrics, but it’s all arranged quite unlike any pop music I’ve heard. There’s long, colourful passages of instrumental ambient sound and rich synthetic chords, but with no obvious roots in anything that’s come before. Add to that touches of white soul, drum ‘n’ bass, epic house, world melodies…and it doesn’t stop there. The composer’s website at http://www.mezzowave.net is a remarkable piece of web design, a work of art in its own right and a sensuous treat for the eyes and ears. He promotes his site “super sensory chillout”. That phrase neatly sums up the liquid sounds of The Hub, too, one the of freshest pieces of contemporary electronica around right now. This is my Album Of The Year so far, and its going to take some beating…

Over the two years it took to create The Hub I was studying with a chi gong master, practicing different kinds of yoga (hatha kundalini) and attending workshops for sound healing ,sacred geometry and numerology.
I applied a lot of my teachings to the songs and sounds on the album I really felt like it was an amazing healing process and journey

The Hub has been embraced and used in sessions by healers and alternative therapy practitioners and is to be written about in a book by Tantric teacher and healer Kavida Rei..

This is the message she sent me on my space …
I was blown away when I read the chapter as you can imagine!
love the music. love love love it. so much so that i want to include you in my musical novel that is nearly finished (yeah baby) the hub is my number one choice of 'best album to f**k to'. I'm serious. I'm a serious writer (subjects - music, passion, tantra, sex, enlightenment and more music) One of the chapters is 'Best f**K Album'. You're it. Will you let me use a track? Wanna read the chapter?
How do I buy your latest album?
