Solid Void

Dear friends, fans and music lovers,
The wait is over. After twelve months of creative efforts in my home studio, new album "Solid Void" has been completed and it's fresh and out. First of all I would like to thank Jamendo for being such a great platform for musicians and indy artists, and what makes me specially happy is great audience and vibrant community that surrounds it.

So, what's the story about "Solid Void" ?
The musical idea behind this album is amazing duality of nature. While our brain tells us that world is solid, quantum physics tells us a quite different story that 99.9999% of an atom is empty space, a void. Well, I find this discrepancy magical, inspiring and even spiritual, so that's the driving force behind the concept of this music album. 

About the Sound Architecture
Like it's predcessors "Ephemeris" and "Fortadelis" this album is ambiental, smooth, very lush and spacious and it's spiced up with elements of darkness there and there.This time I wanted to unleash the real power behind the sound generative process of analog synthesizers, so I hope that true synth lovers expectations are going to be fullfilled. There are really simple sounds such as sine waves and saw pads, arppegiated riffs, TR-808 like rhtyhtm patterns, warm analog strings and very complex clusters of multilayered soundscapes. That makes this album an ideal choice for a movie or documentary soundtrack or relaxing background music. 

The gear I used to record this album is as follows:

• Samplitude 9/10SE, a really powerfull DAW
• Virtual instruments: Uhe Zebra CM, Synth1, Native Instruments KORE Player 
• Effects: Bootsy epicVerb, Kjaerhus plugins, Voxengo plugins
• Synthesizers: KORG Trinity, KORG X-50, Roland JV-30
• Stage piano: M-Audio PROKEYS 88 SX

I'm really looking forward to hear your opinion on this one.
Kind Regards,
Fortadelis
