Dreams and Distant Moonlight
David continues to produce music of the highest standard and this epic album may be considered one of his finest works. Fifteen interlinked tracks spanning a colossal 77 minutes that is stylistically a cross between his 2002 classic; "Walking With Ghosts" and 2004's; "Continuum". The music is varied and one of Davidʼs most impressive creations yet. It features Andy Lobban and Nigel Turner-Heffer on lead and bass guitars respectively and there are occasional vocal textures that will no doubt draw further comparison with Code Indigo. However, this is a very definite David Wright album - high class melodic music that is rhythmic and flowing. There is some gorgeous music here; wonderful piano on tracks like track "Dreams", trademark synth solos and imaginative sequencing on the tracks "Just an Illusion" and "State of Confusion”, while David's string arrangements have never been more inspired on "Cry to the Moon" and "The Canyon." Other tracks like "State of Bliss" with its evocative guitar and stunning blues arrangement, the sparse "Heatwave in Blue" and the Klaus Schulze inspired "Amorphous" highlight that David is prepared to take risks. He is able to multitask and present various styles while retaining the vision and cohesion to present a very listenable album without deviating from what people recognize as his core style. Huge in scope, this album will be a real treat for fans both old and new. Winner of the German music award "Schallwelle Best CD 2008"
