"This series came about because over the years I accumulated a lot of music that never seemed to find its way onto recordings for one reason or another. So I got together with some friends of mine, and we recorded these. They're all pretty much concepts albums, which I like. I produced them, and they're more new-agey than some of my world-influenced material. A lot of people have enjoyed them and I'm grateful!." ~David Arkenstone
"David Arkenstone has always been inspired by the process of blending technology and music to create a multimedia fusion for producing amazing sounds. By working with state-of-the-art technology David combines the highest quality electronic samples with acoustic instruments played by the finest musicians including David himself. The textures come together and form a unique sonic blend that is in high demand in today’s modern television, film, commercial, and video game scores.
Synthesizers, percussion, and ethereal voices in the surreal realm between sleep and waking. Exquisite new music performed by west coast trio, Troika, and composed by David Arkenstone. Inviting, mystical musical excursions crafted with exotic synthesizer, keyboard and voices layered over hypnotic and provocative percussion." ~firebirdarts.com
