Sundaze 1428

Hello,

Today we moved from Finland to neighboring Russia, Novosibirsk the capitol of Siberia in fact, the main purpose of his music - move the listener somewhere far away in a world of dreams and fantasies, where the sounds of nature acquire melodic tone, and the silence becomes music. His music is the direct outcome of not only his gifted talent, but also his true passion for music and  a lot of hard work in the studio. A leader in his field, his music is a reflection of the culture, sights and sounds of his homeland. Our man has managed to generate a considerable buzz in Russia and is constantly grabbing attention from multiple directions. Deep hypnotic grooves and atmospheric bass notes bloom in a beautiful progressive trance journey  ... . . .....N'Joy

Dmitry Red'ko is Siberia based, something that has contributed in generating his original recognizable style. This is just another reason why his musical direction is different and undistracted by the European scene. Trying to compare his style with other acts will not be an easy task. It has been a long wait for his debut studio album, and the wait turned out to be fruitful. 'Fruits Of The Imagination' is far out. There are no big guns here, and there is no undercurrent. His message is clear and easy to digest. Foti is innocent and euphoric. With tracks like 'Arimoya', 'Sansara', and the heavenly 'Touch Of Heaven', a clear effort to bring a message of peace is pointed out.

Astropilot delivers here hi tech-ethno soft trance with a silky production, soulful optimistic beats, combining Indian vocals which contribute to the ethno east bound ambience in his music. .....A universe of dreams, a world of fantasies, you are so near and so distant... And sometimes the distinctions between reality and dreaming are so degraded... One thinks that he lives in that time, he simply falls asleep in wait on the threshold of life...

This is deep-space, stately ambient with some psy flares here and there with limited vocals. Two of the most gorgeous tracks "Space Ghosts" and "Languor" are also the two shortest, leaving one to wonder what they might be like fully developed.

His first album, 'Fruits of the Imagination', was a great success in 2007, and after an excursion into the depths of the Universe in early 2010 with his album 'Solar Walk', he's back with a new album 'Here and Now'', a very solid work that will start up a musical tsunami all over the world! Many musicians are inspired by Astropilot's music, but none can follow him into his rapid ascension! 'Here and Now' is an album that is at once charming, spiritual, senseful, and mind-opening into the essence of what humanity is going through in 2010. Astropilot has seen into our craziest dreams and is showcasing them in a tornado of psychedelic notes, showing us once again that he is a musical master..
