"AQUATIC DREAMS" - AAWA flight 049 - Extended Play Hi-Fi Journey
COVER PHOTOGRAPHY : YUICHI TAKASAKA
- AAWA flight 049 features:
Exclusive Pre-Flight Lounge Entertainment: "Quero Ser O Mar" (Cinemix) - Roney Giah & Scott Hill from "YESTERDAY's TOMORROW"
Welcome aquatic adventurers from around the Globe... ALL PASSENGERS Prepare for a Cosmic Cruise with Astranova's Ambient Worlds Airways flight 048, "AQUATIC DREAMS". This is your pilot-DJ Ol . Today's journey will allow us to explore H2O in depth. We will travel the globe in search of aqua-aural enlightenment. Our flight lifts off from Sao Paulo, Brazil with our expert Astral Navigator, the remarkable Roney Giah... from his brand new ASTRANOVA release, "Yesterday's Tomorrow". Passengers Please Fasten dream machine inputs, so we can travel "Fa, Fa, Fa"...
Within AQUATIC DREAMS, We have been studying the physical property of a substance that enables it to flow. This is known as "FLUIDITY"... A sonic liquid state only found within Scott Hill's, "AQUATIC WORLDS".
All aboard the Astranova Submersible Vehicle. Every seat is equipped with panoramic views of the undersea kingdom, so we can observe various Cetaceans... Look out next for Roney Giah's "Baleia (the Whale)"!
We have been traveling northwards, deep within "AQUATIC WORLDS" observing the delightful yet endangered "BELUGA". First described by Peter Simon Pallas in 1776, The Beluga Whale or White Whale (Delphinapterus leucas) is an Arctic and sub-Arctic species of cetacean. It is one of two members of the family Monodontidae, along with the Narwhal. This marine mammal is commonly referred to simply as the Beluga or Sea Canary due to its high pitched squeaks. It is up to 5 m (15 ft) in length with a distinctive melon-shaped head.
Next we'll be visiting the bay of Fundy in Canada, to see a truly remarkable High and "Low Tide" with our outstanding italian guest pilots, TWM, the Wimshursts Machine, featuring pianist / composer Corrado Rossi.
Here, along the Canadian Atlantic coast, the power of the tidal surge, due to the unique shape of the bay, brings enormous variations of 48 feet or 14 meters between high and 'LOW TIDE's.
From New Brunswick, we traveled Northwards towards the Arctic, where we are now immersed in Skala's freezing "ICE"... as we journey over the treeless "TUNDRA".
On tundra, the vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. The Arctic tundra is a vast area of stark landscape, which is frozen for much of the year.
Dream Voyager are currently navigating our sub-conscious, strewn with puddles, where "Lovers In The Rain" have discovered their own "Mystic Castles"
Astranova's superb flight team wish to thank ALL our fellow Sonic Travelers around the Globe, in over 100 countries, as we now surpass a half a MILLION journeys on Ambient Worlds Airways!
Leaving Terrestrial Earth far behind, we have been Astral Traveling with Anglo-Dutch adventurers, PASCO, to visit the vast alien sea known as "MARE INFINITUM"! Now, as the celestial bodies all align, we can feel the power of PASCO's unique"SyZyGy" album... Next destination on our aquatic quixotic cruise is a visit to "Natural Worlds" (volume 4)
to luxuriate in the "DEEP BLUE" undersea kingdom. As our submersible heads southward from from Japan towards Guam we are following the Mariana Trench, the deepest known oceanic canyon on Earth... Down we go, deeper & deeper still... 1000m... 2000... 5000m... The DEEP BLUE now turns to a purple-black as we stabilise @ 10,000m beneath the surface of the Pacific, still over 1000m above the lowest points of the Trench...
You are listening to the unique sound of ASTRANOVA's AMBIENT WORLDS... All of our international team of artists, pilots & navigators can be found on our "home", www.AmbientWorlds.co.uk
Returning to the comfort of the DEEP BLUE once again, we are rising steadily into the sunlit waters teeming with life. Relax with our crew, Mediterranea, as we rise to the surface in our Aquatic Dream Machine, like a bubble in the "LIGHT BLUE (ZARCO)" waters...
Prepare for a rise in temperature as we head towards the Equator. With the sun beating down, beads of sweat are forming... The wind is blowing gently and "EVAPORATION" cools your face and skin... Time to sail with Alien Music Club and change states, from liquid to gas! Cabin Pressure is now stabilising... Prepare to Experience... "Zero Digital Gravity".
After the massive "EVAPORATION", we are rising high into the atmosphere as water vapor. Rain is a type of precipitation, a product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that is released on the Earth's surface. Falling from the clouds, we land upon the parched earth forming a welcome puddle of "FRESH MUD"...Please welcome warmly, our Guest Pilots, the superb MYSTIKOS QUINTET... Unfortunately, "Fresh Mud" can also be catastrophic where GREED is concerned: TODAY June 11th 2008, DRILLING a gas well owned by an Indonesian minister and Australian mining giant Santos caused a mud volcano that flooded 600 hectares of East Java and left more than 30,000 people homeless... as the mudflow continues at a million barrels a day.
Next, we'll be boarding ASTRANOVA's Ambient Dreams Cruise Liner with our captain, Danish autodidact, Bjarne O. All passengers please remember to have your WORLD or UNIVERSAL PASSPORTs ready, as we are about to enter Captain Bjarne's remarkable "VIRTUAL WORLD" where we are sailing into the sunset with "SEA SUITE 3".
We have been musing within the realm of AQUATIC DREAMS heading for a fine holiday, as we sail towards the Caribbean with Master of Percussion, Doug Hinrichs and the WIZARD at the helm. Time to chill out... It's cocktail hour at the bar... Very special "PINA COLADA"s
are now being served. Make sure to drink it ALL down for total refreshment! Next stop, Montego Bay in Jamaica... When we reach the harbour, we are greeted by our excellent friend & host, Scott Turchin. The SONGMON, will be taking taking us High into the Hills to see the beautiful flora and fauna of the "JAH CREATION"...
Drifting off dreamily after the sun and sea in Jamaica, our next visit takes us halfway round the globe to explore yet more "Natural Worlds" and to luxuriate in the "VANUATU SURF"... First inhabited by the Melanesian people, Vanuatu, is an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. This idyllic volcanic archipelago is some 1,750 km east of northern Australia, 500 km north-east of New Caledonia, west of Fiji, and south of the Solomon Islands.
Our next flight crew has arrived from Turin, Italy. The Wimshursts Machine, TWM, will be our hosts as we set sail for the "MYSTICAL SEA". Remember to tell your friends about our visits to AMBIENT WORLDS. Thanks to all our listeners around the World for helping to spread the Ambient Word! With "FREEDOM LIGHTS" burning brightly,
we send special greetings to our new friends in Estonia, Latvia, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Tibet and Myanmar. Warm vibes and best wishes to all our excellent subscribers in Austria, Colombia and Sweden! Now that our "Aquatic Dreams" are almost complete, we will seek out the essence of of H2O in its purest form. Time to join the brilliant Seth Osburn as we conjure with the "SEVEN Stages of Alchemical Transformation" 
to complete our "DISTILLATION". We end with another Dream Voyage through "The Fabric of Time" to see delightful "SNOWFLAKES by MOONLIGHT"!

Here's a small sample of what listeners around the Globe think of "PETRA" :
Contemporary tension...
-Very interesting bass beginning
-A modal tune with so much tension!
-Interesting break that creates contrast and mystery...
-Very competent drummer.
- CoolBop from Belo Horizonte, Mg, Brazil
Pretty hot This tune swings. It reminds of Mr. Gone by Weather Report. I know that's going back a ways, but that reference comes to mind. It's got that Joe Zawinul world sound to it, which is good in my book. All the instruments are well played. If this is live playing, I'm deeply impressed. Kind of has that Mahavishnu Orchestra sound too. It's pretty hot.
- mystikos from Indianapolis, Indiana
Killer bass! Killer driving bass at top of the track and the sweeping, chaotic synths make it feel like something is about to go down. The electric guitar spices things up and reminds me of Danny Elfman-ish trakcs like the soundtrack for "Lost Highway" ... very menacing and original this one is : - "SURREALITY" - FREE Download from DREAM VOYAGER

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 06:52:20 +0000From Wizard & Tee's Trip Hop classic
"SEXTACY", "NEW YORK CONNECTION" is this week's FREE Download from ASTRANOVA's AMBIENT WORLDS...NEW YORK CONNECTION : What listeners think:
funky beat the dreamy beginning, kicks out a smooth like butta beat. The sequencer sounds great over the drums. The feel of the keys is just right for this track. The mood is very up beat, like you wanna move. The production for the song is done well : great funky track. Extra Credit: Drums, Mood, Originality. - Musifuger from Alpharetta, Georgia, USA
Great atmosphere! The build up in the intro is very sweet, I really like the way the flute adds to the groove and the percussion is really sweet, really tight. The keyboards are nice, they have a very contemporary chill feel to them that's really engaging. Mood-wise I can totally imagine a smoky lounge while a huge band plays on a tiny stage, suits and fedoras under dim lights. Extra Credit: Drums, Keyboards/Organ/Piano, Sequencer/Effects Programming, Production, Melody, Mood, Coolest Chill-Out Track. - marastorment
funky, groovy Nice intro, I love the synthline. The keyboard sounds are original and good quality. The drums are cool too, nice drumsounds. the mood is a nice moving, funky groove. I like the production, very good mix balance and good overall sound quality. - cubist from Brussels, Flanders, Belgium
Jammin' Punchy beats, I like that. The production is phat and effective. Fantastic jazz licks! - doublechan
Good stuff... Definitely something to have available in the disc changer for a party. Well done! Extra Credit: Production, Mood, Originality. - Rick_LaCapo from Upland, California, USA
Brave band. Wonderful track, this song is one of the best I've heard in this style. Great job on the melody. Great job on the effort. Extra Credit: Mood, Originality. - dustfungus from Onalaska, Wisconsin, USA
Herbie Hancock feel It's very modern and yet old-school like. I enjoy the rhythm and the attention to detail on the little intangible components of the song. I really enjoy the jazzy aspects of this piece, the horns, the older rap in the background, and the noise that ensues. The keys grab that old-school flare. A+ to the production. Someone was obviously up late at night on this one. I enjoy the long fade out which brings me back to a very modern world of sound. The song bounced back and forth between eras seemlessly. Excellent job. I will listen to more of your material. Extra Credit: Drums, Production, Beat, Mood, Originality. - ejsmith22 from Denver, Colorado, USA
Relaxed... really relaxed mood here. Keyboards are clean and well played. Production hits 5 stars... well. theres loads of stuff floating around. somebodys been putting hes heart into this, thats good. I just wish best of luck. - Alleyfoo from Helsinki, Uusimaa, Finland
I love the synth at the beginning of the track. it had a sense of motion but a very simple melody. The beat was nice and fat when it kicked in. Great production, very professional. Extra Credit: Drums, Production. - Human_Weather from Philadephia, Pennsylvania, USA
drive you start out real quiet and then build it up to a really interesting tune. Your sound shows variety and groove. The mood is uplifting, the Keyboard as everything else are in Harmony with each other, the production level is there... Very nice work! Extra Credit: Keyboards/Organ/Piano, Production. - Upavas1 from Honolulu, Hawaii, USA
Professional production, great composition This is very well produced, sounds very professional. I love all the sounds, and how they are arranged. The panning is off the hook. This one goes into my playlist for sure, i would use it a DJ set in an instant as well. It reminds me of some Ninja Tune or Tummy Touch stuff. Extra Credit: Sequencer/Effects Programming, Production. - dr_shakes from Jersey City, New Jersey, USA
This mother isa... I loved the intro, you've definitely got yer own thing going on. I like all of the varied samples. The mood to me is laid back but still kickin. I really like the fade out as well. Nice one. Extra Credit: Mood, Originality. - Stridor from Cleveland, Ohio
From the start it was cool, I like the jazz influences you have going on. Individual sound fat beat and bass, good job Extra Credit: Drums, Bass, Keyboards/Organ/Piano, Sequencer/Effects Programming, Melody, Beat, Mood, Originality. - Richie_BPQ from Homewood, Illinois

On this whirlwind tour, we will be experiencing Somnambulance with brilliant Bulgarian maestro, SLEEPWALKER, as we visit the mystical "INVISIBLE CLOISTER", where we pass thru a time space portal with TWM, to a land of barbarians in antediluvian earth...to "CIMMERIA"!

With the temperature rising steadily, we lift off to achieve "Zero Digital Gravity", where "Passages Through Time" can occur spontaneously... Next, with our sense of time distorted, we take "MY SOMA" to achieve equilibrium, while we watch the Sun dwindle to a distant point of light, as we are attracted by the massive magnetosphere of the "NEUTRON STAR"!

ESCAPE POD 2 : Space Station 004Welcome All Passengers! Escape Pod 2 is now boarding @ SPACE STATION Portal 4. We will be using the ESCAPE POD to transfer from Earth to the Interplanetary Transit Lounge and Beyond!

Visit ambientworlds.co.uk for links to all the outstanding artists who are co-piloting today's flight... Get your WORLD PASSPORT on our home page, your access to unique, new AMBIENT WORLDS.
Next, we'll fly to the Middle East, backwards in time with FUNKFISH to the Ancient Future...Time to visit Petra (from "petra", rock in Greek; Arabic: Al-Butra), an archaeological site in Jordan, lying in a basin among the mountains which form the eastern flank of Wadi Araba, the large valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. It is famous for having many stone structures carved into the rock. The long-hidden site was revealed to the Western world by the Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt in 1812. It was famously described as "a rose-red city half as old as time"...
Pliny the Elder and other writers identify Petra as the capital of the Nabataeans, Aramaic-speaking Semites, and the centre of their caravan trade. Enclosed by towering rocks and watered by a perennial stream, Petra not only possessed the advantages of a fortress but controlled the main commercial routes which passed through it to Gaza in the west, to Bosra and Damascus in the north, to Aqaba and Leuce Come on the Red Sea, and across the desert to the Persian Gulf. Excavations have demonstrated that it was the ability of the Nabateans to control the water supply that led to the rise of the desert city, in effect creating an artificial oasis.
Now, still flying back in time, northwestwards to the Anatolian Plateau... Centuries slip by, as we reach back 2800 years ago, for a superb TRIP to PHRYGIA . As you would expect on AMBIENT WORLDS, We will be flying First Class, with your outstanding crew, ANAKATA, from Athens, Greece... The Phrygian people settled in the area from c. 1200 BC, and established a kingdom in the 8th century BC. It was overwhelmed by Cimmerian invaders c. 690 BC, then briefly conquered by its neighbor Lydia, before it passed successively into the Persian Empire of Cyrus, the empire of Alexander and his successors, was taken by the king of Pergamon, and eventually became part of the Roman Empire. The Phrygian language survived until about the 6th century AD.

Now that we're safely onboard the "Interplanetary Transit Lounge" it's time to get "The BRIEFING" (pt1) from PASCO's incredible "GUARDIAN ANGEL, Sci-Fi Adventure"...
Within the silent depths of Deep Space, the adventure continued as we met a true HERO from Italian DJ pilots Gilbert & Nisii...Based in Bolgna, Italy...Ciao to all our listeners on Radio Venere 100.2 FM. Time for a quick change of navigators, the excellent Corrado Rossi is now guiding ESCAPE POD 2...First we must analyze the cryptic "MESSAGE from EARTH"...
Once we had cracked the code of the "MESSAGE from EARTH", we felt "The CALL of ADVENTURE, sounded by the third of our outstanding italian composers, it's our friends in Turin, TWM, the Wimshursts Machine from their excellent FREEDOM LIGHTS album...
So it's time for us to visit the MOON... We have been summoned to the SEA of TRANQUILLITY for a TRIBAL GATHERING... So it's a rare opportunity for all our travelers, from 99 countries around the globe, to join together... Featuring the epic, stellar Sax work of the late, great Dick Morrissey.
