Synopsis

Album Description
Surround Records with the support of Oracle Audio Music, Sound Design and Midwest Pro Audio (formally Pearl Sound Studios) was one of the first to complete production of an electronic music album composed, produced and mixed for 5.1 Surround Sound Reproduction: "SPACE or DREAM of LIFE." You must have a DTS system to play this disc. The diversity of electronic music, often comprising a strong rhythm structure, combined with environmental effects and a detailed, layered sound design, make electronic and especially techno music the perfect media for multi-channel surround sound reproduction and a three-dimensional surround sound experience, says Alexandr, talking to High Fidelity Review. "DVD-Audio allows us to fully enter into the third age of reproduced sound: ?three-dimensional sound realism?. The multi-channel surround music experience is now available to the average consumer, which affords new opportunities for artists to express themselves". The Surround Records label was founded purely to produce original music in surround. "With my project ?Space or Dream of Life? I am able to locate and produce movement of sounds in a three-dimensional sound field and use that as a main creative element." ?Space or Dream of Life?, produced with the support of Oracle Audio Music, Sound Design and Midwest Pro Audio (formerly Pearl Sound Studios) is already available as a multi-channel DTS music disc, but the DVD-audio version, which will be released by year-end, will include high-resolution loss-less audio and an interactive story-menu, consisting of futuristic multimedia artwork. Alexandr points out that: "Coming from a classical music background I was always looking at sound and acoustics as a main creative element of music perception. In my early years I was always searching for the perfect location in a room to play one of my instruments and using its acoustics to complement the performance." ?Space or Dream of Life? was inspired by Detroit techno music and performances by legendary DJs like Kevin Saunderson, Derrick May, Juan Atkins and Carl Craig, alongside ?Hyperspace Theory of Everything? by American scientist Michio Kaku. The disc is dedicated to the human understanding of reality and the universe.

Surround Music.net (Widescreen Review® Magazine) News Story: "SPACE or Dream of Life" Music Experience in 3-dimensional sound reality, DTS 5.1 Music Disc (DVD-Audio) We are now entering the Third Age of reproduced sound. The monophonic era was the First Age, which lasted from Edison's invention of the phonograph in 1877 until the 1950s. During those times the goal was simply to reproduce the timbre of the original sound. No attempts were made to Reproduce directional properties or spatial realism. The stereo era was the Second Age. It was based on inventions from the 1930s, reached the public in the mid-'50s, and has provided great listening Pleasure for four decades. Stereo improved the reproduction of timbre and added two dimensions of space: the left- right spread of performers across a Stage, and a set of acoustic cues that allow listeners to perceive a front-to-back dimension. Third Age reproduced by Multichannel surround sound technology, natural involving presence in A way that is robust, reliable and consistent there each individual sound has its Unique location in 3-dimensional space. Now it's time to apply these latest technologies to th
