NEW YORK CITY DWELLER, SCOTT FERRARO, IS A MUSICIAN AND ARTIST, WHO MAKES UNIQUELY ORIGINAL MUSIC, GROUNDED IN MELODY, IMPROVISATION AND A CONSTANT UNDERCURRENT OF SUBTLE RHYTHMIC MOTION. HE IS A STUDENT OF LATE SIXTIES AMERICAN JAZZ, COUNTRY-BLUES, ELECTRONICA, WEST AFRICAN GUITAR, INDIAN CLASSICAL AND AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AND AVANT-GARDE MUSIC OF ALL PERIODS. IT IS, HOWEVER, THE EXPERIENCES OF EVERY DAY LIFE THAT SERVE AS THE INSPIRATION FOR THE SPONTANEOUS AND MOODY SOUNDS HE CREATES. THE MUSIC ON THIS DEBUT RELEASE IS A DEEPLY PERSONAL EXPRESSION OF MOODS FROM SIXTEEN DIFFERENT DAYS, CAPTURED IN THE FALL OF 2001 AND SPRING OF 2002. ALL BUT ONE TRACK ARE ACOUSTIC GUITAR. ALL THE MUSIC, INCLUDING THE ELECTRONIC PIECE, WAS IMPROVISED, UNREHEARSED AND NOT INTENDED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE AT THE TIME IT WAS CREATED. THE EFFECT OF THIS, IS TO BRING YOU INTO HIS ENVIRONMENT DURING THOSE MOMENTS IN TIME. THE REAL STRENGTH OF THIS RECORDING IS THAT IT WORKS EQUALLY WELL AS A HEADPHONES MEDITATION EXPERIENCE OR A LATE NIGHT LOUNGE SESSION, WITH A FRIEND OR ALONE.
