Reviews
The songs featured on Colors of a New Dawn (Real
Music) by Gandalf intricately weave the sounds
of acoustic, classical, and electric guitars with
keyboard, percussion, piano, and sound samplers
for a truly unique listening experience. The soothing
tracks, which woo the mind and body into a state
of relaxation, are appropriate for treatment rooms.
~ Cristina De Oliveira, American Spa
Casting a relaxing spell over audiences with his
second release for Real Music, Austrian composer
Gandalf continues to present an awe-inspiring
array of instrumental moods for quiet times. Like
his previous effort, the music here fits in perfectly
with the “Real Music sound,” meaning
lots of spacious, sublime synthesizer atmospheres
interspersed with ethereally enhanced acoustic
instruments like guitar, piano and flute. Gandalf
also incorporates light rhythmic elements into
many of his compositions, however the percussion
used is generally quite subtle. The tone of the
album is uplifting and joyous, with a “live
life to the fullest” vibe that fits the
album’s title.
