about

Soundtrack for the Mind invites you on a journey into worlds of your own imagining. Like a movie score, this evocative music inspires you to create your own pictures, feelings and stories. The music is intricate, engaging and calming.

Escape from your everyday as you immerse yourself in these spacious and beautiful soundscapes.

Give yourself some time to DRIFT DREAM IMAGINE

I'm often asked to describe the style of music I play, so I came up with a new phrase - FAB music. Free Ambient Beauty.
All the music on this CD was impovised in the studio. That means we composed the music in the moment.
I experience improvisation to be a form of musical alchemy. Composing in the moment creates gold when the musicians come together in trust, friendship and shared purpose. Listening is a key element in this music-making - we listen to our hearts, we listen to each other, and we listen to the silence.
Before we started each recording session, I suggested a key, and through a few carefully chosen words I set up an intention for the piece. We shared a silent meditation together ... then off we went. I asked Robin our engineer to keep rolling whatever happened. What you hear on this CD was all first-takes. The recording sessions were full of magic moments, like there was an unseen hand of the Divine over the project.
