Hi again, Please check this interesting interview with Stefan in this Brazillian website: http://www.fullonline.net/archives/2006/11...otion.html#more Also here are some snippets of the first reviews pouring in: "[Dream Wide Awake] keeps unlocking undiscovered soundscapes each time you hit play, just as a Dali painting reveals new aspects each time you study it. That is why it lasts, that is why it will grow on you too... [it] is the result of a clever sound wizard, a maestro of ambient who spellbinds your perception, leaving you dreaming wide awake. The album could very well have been the outcome, if you took Yonderboi and the Gordon Brothers from the Buddha Lounge series and placed them together with Enigma in a studio for a week! A diverse downtempo experience. Voila! *****" - Calmspace Radio(Sweden) "Over a variety of gentle beat patterns and synthesised tones Lundhaal picks up a guitar or flute or violin or cheap-sounding keyboard and plays it with new eyes and hands. What comes out is beautiful and always a bit unexpected... Rating: 4/5" - Ambient Music Guide (Australia) "[Omnimotion]... has chosen a varied and very acoustical path to our senses, smelting elements from various styles we are presented with a mixed bag of downtempo goodies... The album is perfect for any downbeat electronic music enthusiast... This release is a concept one has to grasp, the music, the artwork, the album and track title all combine to form a cohesive bond." - Decompression Chamber (India) "This time Aleph-Zero delivers the goods and reveals an Omnimotion that has evolved greatly over the intervening years - the hypnotic individuality, however, is still there, if anything Stefan is drifting further off onto a course of his own. No-one sounds quite like this and yet Dream Wide Awake is accessible and appealing, drawing on familiar elements of downtempo, glitch, jazz, dub, ambient and lounge. " - Morpheus Music (UK) "A mellow flowing, melancholic, optimistic album in which the various instruments are constantly making themselves heard [and] intertwine themselves with Electronic sounds becoming dubby, and sometimes abstract, melodic and hypnotic" - Intershroom (Germany) "This album is a synergy between organic and electronic elements and colours… diversity and inspiration; the sounds and the arrangements of the compositions often complement each other, creating a totally new hybrid sound. As a stand-alone work it deserves respect and has some moments of brilliance." - Revolve Magazine (UK) You can also now find the album in these online shops: http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products/242022...ight=omnimotion (UK) http://www.discobole.gr/product.asp?pid=111002 (Greece) http://www.sofasound.ch/product_info.php/m...products_id/188 (Switzerland) Thanks!

Well, check the E-flyer- it has 2min+ full quality samples. It'll give you a clue. His music evolved a lot from the first album- so it is quite different at times, and much more diverse in styles and feel. Very very musical.

Omnimotion- Dream Wide Awake (AlephZ06) Release Date: October 23rd, 2006 Aleph Zero is proud to present... A New Omnimotion Album!!! After four years of recording, producing and composing new music in his Ambium Studio based in Stockholm, Sweden, Omnimotion is finally back with a second album. Utilizing inspirations and knowledge he picked up along his very diverse musical path, Stefan has created Dream Wide Awake. The album contains the best musical gems that were carefully chosen from the music that accumulated in this four year period. It is a beautifully mellow yet optimistic album, with a strong acoustic presence. Dream Wide Awake is an incredibly diverse album. It features eight different vocalists- from a rapper to an opera singer- and many guest musicians with an array of instruments including the violin, accordion, guitar, drums, harp & flute. The outcome hovers between the electronic and the acoustic, the hypnotic and the melodic, between abstract ambient and mellow songs, between dubby songs and IDM glitches. Omnimotion weaves and paints here an emotional musical journey that must not be missed and will leave you dreaming wide awake. Track list: 1. Nothingness 2. Being 3. Days of Silence (feat. Aleah) 4. Wide Awake (feat. Krister Linder) 5. Une Autre Vie 6. Elves of Athoria 7. Cozy Life 8. Dubber 9. Japan 10. Purple Sky (feat. Adam Perski) 11. Electronic Love 12. Open My Heart 13.

Review by PKS courtesy of trance.net Surprising chill from Aleph Zero Records... Aleph Zero Records is a label based in Israel, run by Yaniv Shulman and Shahar Bar-Itzhak. The first release on this label came last year, which was the fantastic second album by Shulman. They focus on the psychedelic side of electronic chill out music. Now they are out with the second release on this label, which is a double album by an artist from the US (Oregon) called Bluetech (Evan Bluetech). Bluetech is an artist I have heard much good about, but I have never heard his music until now. And what a positive surprise to suddenly sit here with a double CD full of chilled goodies from this artist! You also get a really nice cover art with this release. Bluetech "Elementary Particles + Prima Materia" Aleph Zero Records 2004 (AlephZ02) CD1: Elementary Particles 1. Elementary Particles (Re-Edit) 2. Alchemie Dub 3. Cosmologic 4. Koinonea 5. Prayers For Rain (J. Views Remix) 6. Oleander 7. Worthy CD2: Prima Materia 1. Leaving Babylon 2. Prophetic Sines 3. Triangle (Retriangulated) 4. Rubicon 5. Prayers For Rain (Dub Mix) 6. White Magnesia 7. 7th Phase Dub 8. Burning Waters 9. Mezzamorphic 10. Desperate Ends 11. Cliffdiving The first track on CD 1 called Elementary Particles gives us a beautiful, totally relaxed start on this journey. Floating vibes, with slow, dubby beats, echoing sounds and some beautiful sounds forming into a melody. Definitely one of the most beautiful chill out tracks I have heard this year. Perfect opening on a chill out set. Track 2 starts with weird, psychedelic sounds. Then some relaxed dubby beats glide into the track together with reggae influenced sounds and other weird ingredients. Quite happy, smoked out chill out track. You also get a beautiful ethnic voice in there. Fantastic track with great variation of melodies, sounds and dubby effects. Track 3 goes back to a floating soundscape again. Relaxing, very electronic sounding melodies and a totally mystic, psychedelic vibe all the way through. Again we get great variation so we never get a boring moment. Track 4 goes the dubby direction again. Relaxing beats with a wonderful melody floating above. I love those playful sounds that jumps in and out of these tracks. Track 5 goes another direction. Here we get some kind if electronic jazz. This track is actually remixed by J. Viewz (Jonathan Dagan) from Israel, who is one half of the famous duo called Violet Vision. Pretty experimental jazzy vibe with a lot of great variation. Fantastic! Track 6 has a bit more melancholic vibe, still with fresh psychedelic sounds swirling and jumping in all the way through. The last track on CD 1 is a totally floating track with some eastern vibes. Very deep and mystic. What a great first CD! CD 2 called Prima Materia starts with a beautiful, varied track. Very psychedelic all the way through, with fantastic sounds, great melodies and even some twisted vocals. Track 2 on the second CD goes darker and more mystic. A very deep sound with an eastern vibe written all over it. Totally relaxing. Track 3 is a nice journey of slow beats and mystic sounds, perfect for chilling out in the evening or at night. This track was originally made by Sounds From The Ground, but here we get a remix by Bluetech. Track 4 has a very floating vibe with dubby beats and weird melodies. Nice one. Track 5 is the jazz influenced track we got in CD 1, with relaxing, playful electronic piano etc. This is a more dubby version of it. Track 6 is a pretty happy chill track, with great melodies and funny little details. Music you can never get bored of. Track 7 has also got some dub ingredients, but also tons of beautiful sounds and melodies, including some relaxing guitar and flute in the middle. Great track. Track 8 has some intense, rolling melodies that remind me a little bit of Entheogenic. Quite psychedelic track. Track 9 is more experimental. Here we get thrown into really far out, weird, psychedelic soundscapes. Very mystic, almost scary sounds. Track 10 is another favourite on this album. Heavy, dubby beats and some fantastic sounds swirling around. The last track we get on CD 2 is a short little track that slows us totally down, with some very melancholic piano and floating sounds. A beautiful finish on the album. With this release you get two CD’s of fantastic chill out music for you listening. Great variation in and between the tracks on both CD’s. Definitely one of the biggest surprises this year and for sure one of the best releases on the chill out marked. Recommended! PK
