Explorations album is structured around the theme of physical and spiritual travel. For two years, Pranavibes has been working on creating new songs. The band explored new sounds. And while staying true to instrumental music, it did so with pretty strange instruments: didgeridoo, jew's harp, guitar, musical saw, cajon, darbuka, etc.

So Pranavibes continues on this musical journey, merging folk influences, African rhythms, tribal world music, rock and drum and bass. The result: a soft, natural ethno trance.

Legacy, Bonfield's fifth solo CD and second all solo-guitar album, is a retrospective collection of some of his finest compositions. Recorded on Alan Carruth's custom baritone and harp guitars, it's an incredibly rich and diverse collection of music. The tonality is amazing. Recorded live in the studio by Tom Eaton, this is a true audiophile recording capturing Bonfield's finest recordings at the height of the guitarists career.

1. Renaissance: An upbeat folk tune performed on long-scale baritone.

2. Angela's Ashes: A moody piece inspired by Frank McCourt's Pulitzer prize winning memoirs of the same name.

3. Centerline: Inspired by a scene from the movie Pulp Fiction-highly textured, and performed on Harp Guitar.

4. Mirage: A rhythmic dance through the dunes of an Egyptian desert.

5. The Passing: Originally composed for a dying mother many years ago, this is one of Bonfield's most heart-tugging compositions; performed this time for those lost in the Newtown, CT massacre.

6. Nightfall: Bonfield's favorite time of the day is the 'gloaming' hour-that time between night and day that is somehow filled with magic, promise, and occasionally doubt.

7. The Water is Wide: This traditional piece finds rare depth and angst while performed on Bonfield's short-scale baritone.

8. Homage: This up-tempo romp is dedicated to one of Bonfield's first fingerstyle heroes, Leo Kottke.

9. Summer Rain: Bonfield's masterpiece, originally included in his debut CD, Mystic Morning has grown substantially over the past 20 years. Just listen to the thunder of those sub-bass strings from the Harp Guitar!

10. Longing for the Day: a prayer for peace, a prayer for love, and a prayer of hope.

11. Wismean's View: Bonfield's song of a hawk soaring over a canopy of trees may be one of his strongest melodies.

12. The Name of the Wind: Another piece inspired by literature. This time it's the writing of Patrick Rothfuss and his Kingkiller Chronicles: The Name of the Wind and Wise Man's Fear.

YA! is the 10th album of The Headroom Project, released on Magnatune. It's a colourful journey into sound, a cross-genre kaleidoscope. Andreas Ecker aka The Headroom Project combines powerful african voices with, for example, native peruvian chants and electronica ("YA!" and "Patcha Mama"), Barbershop-chants with a children's music box and jazz/fusion-elements ("Bölebölebu"), noisy textures with poems ("Bereru 2017"), and heavy blues in 7/4 measure with Dark Metal chants. The two most danceable tracks, "I Am Not A Robot" and "Dark Night", are the results of a collaboration with Sigrid Haverkamp.

Andreas Ecker works as a test author of audio software. One consequence of this job is the ability to use new voodoo-software for The Headroom Project. For example, the slightly crazy-sounding female chant of "In der kalten Schachtel" ("in a box so cold") is the result of a transformation of a rather stupid-sounding rap chant from a sample library.

The background-texture of "Bereru 2017" is the result of several sound-destructive plug-ins. Beside technical tricks and unusual combinations of musical elements, humor is one important aspect of The Headroom Project: "I Like That" is a persiflage of traditional German carnival march-music.

Mysterious and dreamy, like a Tim Burton movie, this album immerses us in childhood, in a fantasy world.

Piano, celesta, pizzicato, glockenspiel, electronic percussions, Music box, and choir are the main instruments.

All the songs were composed in a cinematic mood.

"Cry Wolf" is Ehren Starks' third album. Written and recorded over the course of 15 years, it is his opus. Insisting every record be better than his last, Ehren explored new musical territories and influences to create this record.

As always though, life in general was his biggest influence. The trials and tribulations of life in a small town, love lost, substance abuse, mental breakdowns and coping with adulthood all shaped "Cry Wolf". The album seeks to encapsulate all the power of beauty, melancholy, torture, anger, joy, loneliness, and escapism during this period.

"Cry Wolf" though almost never saw the light of day. After a devastating computer meltdown, all the files were lost except for one source. With the help of a fan and the mastering skills of David Chutka, the pieces were put back together and the album finally came to be.
