Out now is my 7 track chillout album "Lounge Garden Sessions" on
Aqua Purha Records. Two of the tunes are previously unreleased,
Beams of Sun (feat Frelow) and Cherry Blossom

Vanity In Mind - Lounge Garden Sessions – Tracklist:

smooth vocals of Frelow.
2.
Garden A chillout track with something of an acoustic feel
with a melancholic violin playing the main theme.
3.
Heavens Falling This is a hybrid between atmospheric drum'n'bass
and chillout and it features a driven melodic hook.
4.
Cherry Blossom
(Chillout Remix) An airy Asian-influenced melody contrasts with a
rough d'n'b-style break.
5.
Beams Of Sun
(feat. Frelow) Frelow's dreamlike vocals give this track an
ethereal quality, flirting with a retro new age sound
but with a contemporary touch.
6.
Walk Me Home Neo-tango meets electronica. Melancholy ensues.
7.
Cherry Blossom
(Original Version) Uptempo atmospheric drum'n'bass with an airy
Asian-influenced hook and an aggressive breakdown.
The album is now available in selected
stores worldwide, with more to follow. A selection of stores:

I've got some great news!
My latest track, a remix called Eddie Sender vs Rewalkers
"Aliencity (Vanity In Mind Remix)" has been played by Dave
Pearce on his very popular weekly
Dance Anthems show
on BBC Radio 1. Not once, not twice, but three times!
(The shows on July 4, 11 & 25.)
"Absolutely lovin'
that track, it's a big one in my box in Ibiza at the
moment"
I've remixed
Common's old classic hiphop track "The 6th Sense" from 2000. The
new sound is laid-back and melodic. As a first for me, I've also
made a music video for it - I hope you enjoy the result!
There are also 5 new ringtones available,
this time they're inspired by hiphop & r'n'b and
3 of them are from the new song!
