About "Limited Edition"

These six tracks represent over a decade of creative development,. each one a milestone along the road I've been on. The common theme centers around the experience of longing, an attempt to express emotions that seem to be beyond language and that suggest there is more to life than what we perceive with our senses, unseen and seemingly just beyond our grasp.

All these songs use imagery as metaphors for emotions, for instance "fluorescent light is buzzin'" from "Solo" to describe that uneasiness that comes from being in an unfamiliar place, and "gentle whisper of an April wind"' to transport one to a particular moment.

They all have one theme in common: hope. There exists always the idea that the next moment may bring a revelation that will help us to make sense of our shared reality through poetry set to music.
