Album Notes

After four years of recording, producing and composing music in his Ambium Studio, Omnimotion is finally back with a second album. Utilizing inspirations and knowledge he picked up along his very diverse musical path, Stefan has created Dream Wide Awake. The album contains the best musical gems that were carefully chosen from the music that accumulated in this four year period. It is a beautifully mellow yet optimistic album, with a strong acoustic presence. Dream Wide Awake is an incredibly diverse album. It features eight different vocalists- from a rapper to an opera singer- and many guest musicians with an array of instruments including the violin, accordion, guitar, drums, harp & flute. The outcome hovers between the electronic and the acoustic, the hypnotic and the melodic, between abstract ambient and mellow songs, between dubby songs and IDM glitches. Omnimotion weaves and paints here an emotional musical journey that must not be missed and will leave you dreaming wide awake.


Omnimotion
Stefan Lundaahl, known for his deep emotional ambient music, was born in 1976 in Sweden. Stefan started his spiraling musical journey at the age of 15 when he began playing the guitar, writing music and playing in bands. The passion for music resulted in a three year music gymnasium program where he played in various bands and wrote more and more music and also played guitar in a Metal band. After exploring various genres, Stefan finally discovered the gate to the dreamy infinite world of ambient music and began his Omnimotion project. Along with his passion for ambient music he was also attracted to the romantic classical era. And so, ended up in a two year classical composing program where he had learned to write for orchestral instruments, classical vocals, piano, string quartet and full orchestra.
By 1999 he released his first track, and in 2002 his very successful debut self titled album was released by the well-known US label Waveform. He went on releasing many tracks on different compilations around the globe and his music was also chosen to accompany dance performances choreographed by famous choreographer Moses Pendelton.
