glb69 I love Peter's compositions. This album is more abstract than previous albums, as the title suggests. I haven't picked a favourite yet, these tracks needs to sink deeper in. I love the artsy quality of Wide View, but Dystopia 01 just got such a brilliant energy to it - Super head bopper ! Peter cover the emotional spectrum well. Favorite track: Dystopia 01.

about

A lot of my music ends up being a blend of genres; I tend to focus on some sort of subject matter - video game characters, galactic features, scientific concepts, etc. - and let the "genre" adapt to match it. Synthwave is a genre family that I have often dipped into, whether it was conscious or not. However, through the process of writing Pandora Unlocked: Neon Pink, I realised that I really enjoyed writing music focused on this genre; this warranted further exploration.

Artwave is my experiment in writing an album that is focused on the Synthwave genre family, but with a full songwriting treatment (not just the "demo" treatment in Neon Pink). Some other influences have found their way, but this album should feel at home if you enjoy Synthwave (Spacewave, Dreamwave, Darkwave, etc.)

Suspenseful and Eerie. Each track tells a story. Spirits haunting a boneyard and aliens scanning the wreckage of a battlefield are just some.of the images brought to mind. Michael
