Thank you Edgar Froese for all the inspiration. Factoid: This album was initially to be titled 'Once Upon a Dream' (A reference to the TD influences and the 80s sound of many of the tracks on this album). However, as I set on my choices for album cover artwork, the title 'Star Lost' was chosen. | You are invited to also explore these Borders Edge Music Titles, including Sequential Dream's discography |

Track Listing
This title called "L'esprit des eaux" (The Spirit of Water) is an ambient instrumental music celebration of Water. It manifests in so many ways, at the core of our experiences, and our existence. The music may be characterized by some as "ambient soundscapes" or background music to be heard (if not listened to) at a low volume level and which "decorates" the sonic environment. Of interest also for those middle of the night waking moments when the mind needs a bit of settling down. Breathe, Relax, Dream Music (c) 2021 Ron Charron (a.k.a.: Kuutana) Album cover (c) 2021 Ron Charron Production Notes: Listeners familiar with the works of Robert Fripp (Water Music II), Let the Power Fall, and with Brian Eno (No Pussyfooting, and Evening Star Albums) may find similarities in the style for track# 3 "Sunset Reflections". These artists have had a very significant influence on a sub-genre of ambient music which is characterized by the use of evolving loops which create background soundscapes. | Kuutana's discography |

For a sample of the sounds you will hear on this album, here is a teaser track
Learning to Fly: Midnight Airship's Second Album
Learning to Fly An introduction by composer and songwriter, Ron Charron Six years ago, Borders Edge music released a Pink Floyd inspired album under the project named Midnight Airship. The album was named A River Once Flowed Here. It was an all instrumental album, with tracks included in a number of Borders Edge Compilations. Today, I am pleased to introduce Midnight Airship’s second album, titled: “Learning to Fly”. Four years in in the making, and unlike Midnight Airship’s first album, a few tracks include lyrics inspired by some of more emotion inducing moments of recent history. Just as with the first album, Learning to Fly is also heavily influenced by the Pink Floyd sound. It is also influenced by some of woven social commentary, introduced by the Floyd in its middle to late years. As the world goes through hardships and heartbreak thrown upon it by the global pandemic and political unrest, there is a growing yearning for hope. Hope that this is just a passing phase (as Roger Waters put it). However, it’s through collective thinking, and willing for peace and hope that it is given a chance to emerge from the darkness and reveal itself into the light. I’ll share with you a few interesting facts about the album, which starts out with a track called Purple Twilight. It’s an interesting fact that I am also an avid fan of the German band Tangerine Dream and that not very long before the release of Midnight Airships’ Learning to Fly album, a Tangerine Dream album by the name of Pilots of Purple Twilight was released. In fact, the song was given birth nearly four years before the Tangerine Dream album was released. Interesting how coincidences can occur! Purple Twilight lyrics give a nod to the psychedelic era, where care for worldly concerns occasionally gave way to poetic expression of experiences felt and breathing in the present moment. Taking a hard turn into more recent events, the second track, called Crazy Days, weaves words which present some of the harsher realities of present times. You’ll notice a few sound bytes from influential speakers punctuate the pulsating sequences of guitar and bass patterns. You may also notice some familiar guitar and synthesizer sounds, also borrowed from memories of countless years of listening to albums the like of Wish you were here, Animals, and The Wall. The third track, For Whom the Bell Tolls, sings in an instrumental voice only, the complaints of the heart and soul, as the human condition faces the hardships of its own mortality. In track 4, Dark Star Rising, a certain political persona was in mind, though to be fair, it’s like darkness and a bit of madness took hold of the world these last few years, not wanting to let go. The darkness and insanity but also cries for it to stop, and for the better angel part intrinsic to everyone’s soul. So many cries to stop the madness and to live and let live. After the rather dark passages of Dark Star Rising, the fifth track called “From Black to Blue” celebrates our home planet Earth. Despite what gray clouds we can create for ourselves, stopping the clock to just appreciate the beauty of our home world and nature can be the best pos sible medicine for the soul. And finally, in the sixth and last track of the album, “Lost in a Dream” a collaboration track with Arend Westra, starts out with pulsating synth sequences which rise over ocean waves as the lyrics of the song have us remember the hardships of those fleeing the hardships of their native lands and searching for a better world, for them and their children. A call to remember what is important and let go of the fear and anger that leads to war, drive the message along with highly driven electric guitars pulsing in rhythm with synthesizer arpeggios and driving bass lines and percussion. About the Album Cover I had the pleasure of having German artist Greta Heron let me use some of her lovely artwork on the Minerva album. For Learning to Fly, I was pleased when she accepted my request to shape an image I had envisioned. She did a great job of turning it into the album cover used for the final release of the album. It's awesome how imagination can shape art, and Greta keeps imagining and drawing personae and landscapes which help nourish the imagination. Ending Words I hope you will enjoy the Learning to Fly album. It took four years to develop, mix and master into the album we'd love for you to listen and enjoy! You can listen and download here on our Bandcamp page. The album will also find its way on most streaming and downloading outlets worldwide. Ron Charron, Somewhere in Canada's National Capital Area, November 11, 2020. |

Synth&Sequences review excerpt comparing to music of Tangerine Dream (TD): Sequential Dreams "Metamorphic Waves" written by Stephane Lupari
<< "Metamorphic Waves": A splendid forthcoming album that just oooooozes the synthonic texture of olde 'Tangerine Dream'
... Hawke Rating: 10/10 Well done!!!!!!!!!" >>
Harborough FM in the UK's radio show host Terry James Hawke upon a pre-release audition of the upcoming Sequential Dreams "Metamorphic Waves"
Metamorphic Waves by Sequential Dreams is the next all-new material album of classic era TD-style synths, sequences, and guitars. This album is a personal project by Sequential Dreams founder Ron Charron, who composed, performed, mixed and mastered all tracks on the album. Like the Sequential Dreams page on Facebook for updates. About this album Classic Synthesizer and Sequencer instrumental music with shades of underlying prog rock in a Berlin-School influence base. A must for fans of the classic-era TD style music! During the late 70s and early 80s, there was a time when the use of synthesizers helped to create a new kind of music. For some artists and bands, these new sounds were a way to widen the sonic palette as applied to styles such as progressive rock and also give birth to such styles as ambient and soundscape music. Certainly, synthesizers were adopted by many film score producers as a vehicle of choice for creating a rich musical backdrop to enhance the mood or drama in scenes. One such band, out of Germany, became a reference in this area. The band was called Tangerine Dream. Of course, the 80s turned into the 90s, and then the 2000’s and beyond. However those early days are when the synthesizer and sequencer driven music stood out so clearly from what have ever been produced before. Metamorphic Waves, this album, takes its influences from what some call the “classic age” of Synthesizer/Sequencer music. The name of the album “Metamorphic Waves” alludes to a music that engages in morphic behaviour. Though there may be the appearance of repetition, which inevitably is a trait of sequencer-style music, the sequences travel through an ever-changing backdrop of soundscapes, vocalizations, pads, and drama enhancing effects. Track titles, and the ordering of tracks and associated moods, find their influence in the album composer’s explorations of the writings of William Brinkley, in particular, his novel called “The Last Ship” written in 1988. The Last Ship tells the story of a United States Navy guided missile destroyer, the fictional USS Nathan James (DDG-80), on patrol in the Barents Sea during a brief, full-scale nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union. It details the ship's ensuing search for a new home for her crew. Lovers of “space rock”, prog-rock, Berlin School electronic, and instrumental soundtracks should love this album. This one is for you! Closing Words: Make Peace, not War. Save lives, don't take them. The Last Ship theme is about survival of the human race. Let's not make the mistakes described in the William Brinkley novel. We owe it to our children, and their children. | Get The Limited-Availability CD Now!

Other artists featured on this album
Ron Charron: All tracks, Synthesizers, Guitars, Arrangements
Chris Pearre: Keyboards/Synths on "Pleadian Prophecy"
Arend Westra: Keyboards/Synths on "Booster Separation"
Writes Owen Maxwell, in a review for Ottawa Magazine (printed magazine) June 2, 2017
<< Those killer instrumental albums can be the perfect soundtrack to a movie you haven't seen yet but will make up as you listen. "Telemetry" bubbles with electric mystery as it pushes forth into different dark and brooding frontiers, but with the ever-shrieking guitar, it always has a sense of raw power in its drive that makes it feel like fun retro music but somehow new. Like a dawn, "Event Horizon" breathes with hope and wonder like a rising sun and not the black hole its title suggests, but as it moves into more prog electronics and organs a heavier overtone starts to take shape setting the mood for the wailing and exploring path the song soon follows. Moving straight to a scoring tone "Subspace Breach" ripples with electric drive, fluttering like a futuristic X-Files theme, before the guitars shift it to a more 80's sci-fi feeling that once again places it somewhere between nostalgia and a new discovery. Going high and low, "Mission To Shangri-La" pushes its bass rumbles to allow cascading synth lines to take shape around it, even at times shifting to more emulative sounds that suggest actions taking place, and creating an audio narrative in the process. >>

Sequential Dreams - The Infinite Divide
"A celebration of Synthesizer and Sequencer driven
Cinematic Electronic Rock music
as inspired by the pioneers of the "Berlin-School of Electronic Music"
movement of the late '70s and it's electronic rock descendents of the '80s and '90s"
"A good fusion between Pink Floyd and the gang of Froese, Franke and Baumann
in an approach which transcends the works of Sequential Dreams up to here"
Also available at CD Baby, Amazon, iTunes, and many more
Released April 6, 2017 Following the release of "The Exodus Wave" album in Jan 2017, Sequential Dreams decided to produce a "sister album" with material strongly inspired from the late '70s and early '80s productions of "Berlin-School of Electronic Music" pioneers. "The Infinite Divide" is this album. In continuation of the exploration of Sci-Fi inspired themes, but in this album, also the philosophical theme of "dualism" - this album presents itself with two core personalities: Berlin-School inspired electronic music, and that of instrumental cinematic electronic rock as often heard in Sci-Fi cinematic and video game productions.
