Awake in the Dark

by Scott Lawlor

supported by

Rinchen Choesang Don't let the first track lull you into a false sense of security. This is not an album of tuneful, melodic piano studies. The remaining tracks are dark, terse and aurally challenging. Good album, but this is not relaxing background music. Enjoy! 😎

raulmori Different sound from the master of dark ambient music. Slow and length piano. Favorite track: Awake in the Dark.

about

This is my third solo piano album and all the tracks were improvised in January of 2017.
Album and song titles inspired by, and in some cases, submitted to the naviar haiku project ( naviarhaikus 102, 121, 113, 146, 147, 157, 079 AND 072 Respectively)

"I listened to this album twice today, it served as the background to my planning of a big work-related project. And then as the soundtrack of my break and what you can name a silent focus meditation/daydreaming.
I can personally testify that this is right up my alley of favorite music; stupendous throbbing chords meet dense and dramatic, sometimes melodramatic, passages through one's emotional cogwheels and dreamtime generators. The stuff dreams are made of, in other words.
I loved all the tracks, without discrimination. If, However, I were to choose, i'd say that Over the scattered starlight and In the clear night were my favorites.
Though, to say it out loud, i'd give everything a bold 5/5. Definitely an album which I can entitle as a masterpiece. It's that beautiful, mysterious and stimulating/engaging. It reads through like some unfathomable haiku that I personally don't ever want to understand, just swim within and in-between its shores."
