Nuada was originally conceived to be a 70's style Berlin Old School Electronic music band. Often called 'space music'. Much in the vein of Tangerine Dream, Michael Hoening, Klaus Schulze. Fans began calling my style 'eclec-tronic'. Since, Nuada has received world wide attention from critics and celebrities alike (including world wide radio play) who have been using the term 'Fantasy / Sci-Fi Music'. I have received several letters from N.Y. Times Best Selling Authors who have found my music inspirational and have even received dedications in several novals. Most critics say, 'Nuada's music is extreamly earthy and spiritual for electronic music'. The music has evolved from strickly electronic to electronic with hand drums, (samples) of flutes, voices, choirs and acoustic 'sounding' instruments blended into my often rhythmic soundscapes. Most of the songs are long and experiential. Often with a step sequencers, colorful washes and topped off with melody lines. It has a very 'thick' and layered sound. Lyrics are few and far between. The idea is to take you on an unrestricted ride, sending you upon a trip then bring you home safely. My music attracts the psychedelic, pagan, new-age, ambient and some of the gothic crowds.
Much of the time I am a solo act featuring synthesizer keyboards, computers and workstations. Sometimes joined by Zeeb and Virgil Franklin. Zeeb is an excellent hand drummer whose roots stem from druming circles. Zeeb has participated in druming circles for over twenty years all across the U.S. Virgil Franklin, a classically trained musician and music teacher plays dynamic electic guitar and wind controllers. Virgil and Nuada often do a Theremin duo during the act as well.
Nuada has rapidly been gaining popularity in Europe, Scandinavia and the Soviet Union and on the radio stations in those parts of the world. Considered 'art music' by some, he is often booked to play at art gallerys and art openings. He is a popular performer at pagan, electronic and space music festivals across the U.S. He is currently in negotiations for a future tour in Poland.
Nuada's music has been continuing to evolve in incorporating psychedelic and ambient textures and sound transitions. From the request of fans, Nuada has released a CD which is much more ambient than the other works he has released. It is often used for meditation and 'soft' journeying and exploration.But everyone tells us the textures of all of Nuada's music is many things to many people depending on which melodic or rhythmic lines one chooses to focus on.
