Hi everyone,

At the same time as my new CD I have another release which is an oldie that might appeal to fans of the golden age of sequencer music. It's the first album that I ever released back in 1986 on cassette and is now out on vinyl (my first ever vinyl release) called Point of Arrival.

This release is a bit different then my current output, more in line with the so called "Berlin school" of music (Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Micheal Hoeing, etc), but from a west coast point of view. You can pick it up at the following urls:

Also,you can listen to the entire album (not 30 sec clips but entire tracks) first at bandcamp before deciding if you want to pick this up or not:

I hope you all enjoy the music, thanks for your support. Smile

Ha ha. No, its not real. I made it from thrown away parts back when I worked at Oberheim in the mid 1980s. I still have it in my garage somewhere. It's made up of an OB8 front panel, a Matrix 12 back panel, and a Matrix 6 keyboard. No electronics in it at all. Buttons and knobs where just taped on for the photo shoot.

Loren. Congrats finally getting your old material re-released.

Any chance in the near future this will be out on cd or cdr?

Ol' timers like me who dont do the download disco shuffle are interested in a non vinyl copy.........

Yes, we are talking about dong a CD release with a bonus track later after the vinyl has sold out. Also in the works is a compilation CD with 2 or 3 unreleased tracks from the same time period as this album.

I own the original cassette release of this. I bought it from my buddy Chuck Oken at Rhino in Claremont.
