A beautiful and wonderfully crafted album of inspiring electronic music, full of uplifting melodies and spacey, atmospheric depth. “Signal To The Stars” is the perfect mix of melody and mood, old school and new school, delicacy and dynamics, passion and power. Delving into influences from the past such as Tangerine Dream and Vangelis, the duo have come out with a seventy minute album of classic, and classy original “electronic music”, choc full of memorable themes and hypnotic rhythms, with plenty in the way of inventive sequences, atmospherics and spontaneous keyboard solos along the way.

Combining the respective trademark skills that have graced a collective 50+ albums, David Wright and Dave Massey merge striking melodies with strident rhythms and sequences in the best tradition of Vangelis, Tangerine Dream and other luminaries of the genre, while retaining a fresh and original soundscape of electronic music.
