If
you’ve ever experienced the excitement of Mission Control’s successful
Shuttle launches, then let me grab your enthusiasm and point it in the
direction of this
“Amazingly Amazing”
project created in the heart and soul of sound sequence master, Paul
“Sequence”
Entering orbit and glancing out the window of the cabin as the world pulls
away from our consciousness, “Sequence” directs you to unbuckle your
thoughts and
“Free your Mind 2 Day”
as you float the weightlessness of space and song.
As the journey to
distant planets along your neuronal pathway begins, controls on the cockpit
are handed off to
“The Observer”
Deron King who navigates the style
of Paul “Sequence”
Oh, by the way, thanks for reminding us Paul, you also do a funky bass, because “Thank You Marcus Miller” lets the universe know that you are coming across the sky with command and authority of lead AND bass guitar, drums, keyboard AND synthesizer, announcing loudly, that you are pumpin’ and coming in peace.
“Playing at the Plank Scale” is one of those moody melodies that twinkles in the velvet silence of introspection. I should have been the fly on the cabin wall when he charted this trajectory, because it is fueled by an erotic guitar solo and complimentary synthesized sequencing. “Timing,” however, is my favorite with it’s driving sensuality and grinding beat that wrestles you from the gravitational pull of the Sun straight towards the powerful vortex of a black hole where once on the other side the event horizon of “String Theory” serenades you sweetly and completely as you travel deeper in to the quantum space of every “Sequence” song. Energetically orchestrated with string instruments overlaying a cosmic funk beat, I just want to drop my space suit and groove in my birthday suit up close and personal as the track warps through the cosmos.
The
song
“Create Your Own Day”
is a saucy testimonial tune that gently enfolds you while adrift in the
blackness of peace among the stars. But, not until you are cuddling with the
captain of you own shuttle do you notice the
“Stars in Your Eyes” as a languid and
mystical voyage shared with Paul “Sequence”
From the musical affirmations of “Quantum Physics Words of Wisdom” Interpreted by Virginia Adams to the lyrical prayer, “Mother I Miss You” followed by the meditative “Self Awareness” listeners are treated to a musical tour through the heavens in the of abundance of rich, captivating sound “going where no man has gone before.”
It is truly enthralling to see how beautifully and perfectly blended each song on this CD project delivers quality and texture through rhythm, sensuality, brilliance and seamless ambiance. If this is what traveling to the far reaches of the universe is like, then beam up Scottie, for the next mission, just as long as Paul “Sequence” Ferguson is the “number one” captin on my starship.
