The instrumentalist and composer known
as Sleeping Thunder has released his new LP music album, “Still
Lost, in Thought.” The LP is a re-release of his fan favorite,
“Lost, in Thought,” which has been garnering Sleeping Thunder
avid new listeners since its original debut. Sleeping Thunder's
dedicated fan base on Jango Radio approaches 200 and is steadily
climbing. The album may be variously labeled as world music, new-age
music, or even simply instrumental music, but its warm, raw, natural
tones are likely to appeal to fans of virtually any genre or
category.
Sleeping Thunder cites as main artistic
influences the popular jazz legend, Paul Winter, the gurus of
experimental and psychedelic rock, Tangerine Dream, and
multi-instrumentalist and grammy-award-winning composer and
performer, “Weird” Al Yankovic. While certain elements of
creativity and ingenuity appear in the works of these artists and
also in the multifarious sounds of “Still Lost, in Thought,”
Sleeping Thunder's LP is a collection bearing great individuality and
character, and cannot be described in derivations.
Asked to explain any inherent themes,
motifs and messages in “Still Lost, in Thought,” Sleeping Thunder
writes that “It's OK to be yourself. Explore. Even if you stumble
and get a little scraped up, you could find something to make it
worth the trouble.”
Much of the color and adventure of
“Still Lost...” may be glimpsed by merely reading the names of
the thirteen songs included on the LP: “Out on a Limb,” “Stormy,”
“Have Faith,” “Midnight,” “Pyramids,” “King's
Messenger,” “Blue Agate,” “Raptor,” “Damnit,” “Zombie
Waltz,” “A Pond,” “T'kumasey,” and “Ta Dee.”
Sleeping Thunder's official bio
describes him as a New-England-based artist inspired by hiking and
kayaking trips. He plays keyboard, woodwind, recycled percussion, and
uses real nature sounds. He also does photography and makes
necklaces. His English and French family line can be traced to the
Mayflower and to Jamestown, but interestingly includes no Native
American heritage.
“Still Lost, in Thought” by
Sleeping Thunder is available online worldwide beginning 15 July
2014.
