Traces - Abandoned by The Light Dreams
TRACES - ABANDONED offers an insight into The Light Dreams' creative process, bringing together various demo ideas and unfinished pieces that came about during the making of TRACES.
--
Here we find a development of the approach which Alex gave us in his earlier album TRACES – a blending of motifs and concepts which bring together our dreams and our realities.
In this album we have a wider variety of themes – some more forceful and powerful messages, along with darker moods which may bring out memories that we have buried and even long forgotten. But there is still the atmospheric feel of the ethereal, and a belief that there is much that is positive in life. We find echoes of times past – the good and the bad – but all are part of what makes us what we are.
Some of this makes us uncomfortable, but does that mean that those memories should be “abandoned”? Judge for yourself.
