Lullaby for the Hearts of Space

Lullaby for the Hearts of Space is being restored and will be re-released. All the original tape masters and safety copies of this piece had disintegrated due to a faulty emulsion formula on Ampex 456. (You recording engineers know what I’m talking about…) Even after a tried-and-mostly-true remedy of baking the tape, there just wasn’t enough oxide left. I contacted Stephen Hill at Hearts of Space to see if he had a copy somewhere. He was gracious enough to invite me to his storage space where we sifted through many years of tapes. It was like revisiting a past life for both of us, I think. We found a (3rd generation?) copy! There are many issues to solve and it’s like restoring and old film frame by frame.

It is a classic not only in terms of Spacemusic but in live analog synthesis. I’ve been getting many requests for its release not the least of whom is Serge Tcherepnin who told me it was his favorite piece that was done on the Serge Modular Music System.

Channeled Meditation Music

I have been doing individual musical channelings for people in Japan and the US. It’s similar to going to a channeler who goes into trance and a Spirit Being comes forth to answer questions and offer guidance from the non-physical perspective. The difference is that the answers and guidance come through in sound and music. (More info in my website STORE – Channeled Meditation Music for You.)

Channeled Chakra Balancing CD released in Japan!

The Japanese title is:
Meditation CD Book of Manifestation of Happiness

Last winter I initiated a project based on a concept from Hidden Messages in Water. (More info on my website - Music as an Energetic Experience) It had such an impact that it became a book and CD published by Diamond Publishing in Japan. It was released on March 13 and is already in its second printing. I will release the CD here as Channeled Chakra Balancing. I am currently working on the CD production and am seeking funding to produce and duplicate the final CD package.
