I’m happy to announce the release of my first full-length studio album titled, “Let The Music Come To Me.” The album is the culmination of many years of hard work in the recording studio, so it really means a lot to me. Half the songs are solo originals, and the other half are collaborations with vocalists, bands, and other producers.
Because it’s my first album, I wanted to do something special. So not only will it be available worldwide at retailers like iTunes and Beatport, but for the first time I am offering a physical compact disc (CD)! You can even get one autographed by yours truly : )
But I only made 500 of them, so be sure to order yours now before they run out!
“October” is a classical piece written by renowned composer Eric Whitacre that I used to play in high school honor bands. On a whim, I sent Eric a Facebook message asking for permission to create a cover or a remix. He got back to me the same day, said he checked out my music and loved it, and to proceed! This is the result. The style is progressive house, with some inspiration taken from Deadmau5.
This is what Eric had to say about his composition:
“October is my favorite month. Something about the crisp autumn air and the subtle change in light always makes me a little sentimental, and as I started to sketch I felt that same quiet beauty in the writing. The simple, pastoral melodies and subsequent harmonies are inspired by the great English Romantics (Vaughn Williams, Elgar) as I felt that this style was also perfectly suited to capture the natural and pastoral soul of the season. I’m quite happy with the end result, especially because I feel there just isn’t enough lush, beautiful music written for winds.”

In anticipation of the epic show at the Home Depot Center on October 8th I recorded this mix to help me get ready! I think this was my ninth time seeing Tiesto live… and it was amazing!
