berlindreamer I've been waiting for this album since I read for the first time about it on Alba's website. I was just curious to see how he started his musical quest. Excellent work, my friend!

about

1999 was a turning point in my life, but also one the most challenging years.

Recently returned from France (Moissy Cramayel) where with my pop-rock band ARCA recorded a CD (www.albaecstasy.ro/biography/), I realized that Electronic Music is closer to my heart than any other musical genre.

From that moment, sleepless nights followed and one month later this album was ready.

Mostly made with samples on a Pentium MMX computer (233MHz as far as I remember!) and some desktop computer speakers - so nothing professional at all, spending my nights arranging this music, commuting, in the morning, for work and university.

Those were intense days, filled with that burning desire of making music and touching my dreams!

Then, 3 months later, after loosing my grandmother - one of the most important person in my life - hard moments followed.
I dedicated myself to hard work since all my incomes being spent almost entirely on rent... Days of starvation (literally), anxiety and depression.
Music and writing poetry were the only ways to get out of that mess...

Since then, 20 years has passed...
With ups and downs, with or without having the time or the possibility to make music, but always dedicated and focused to the idea that one day I'll be an Electronic Musician.

Here I am now.
Living my dream.

This is a my SPIRITUAL album. My first step in music.
A gift for you.
Thank you!

Love,
Alba Ecstasy
