I hope everybody had a nice start to new decade. Here we come with the first release of 2020. Lessons From The Dreamtime is founded by Jesse Travis Maddox from Denver, Colorado. The artist combines ambient & modern classical music in a majestic way.
Jesse initially recorded under another experimental moniker, Lying On Ice, but he has become known internationally for a unique blend of experimental world music and ambient recordings released under his Lessons From The Dreamtime name.
An early interest in musical and cultural differences set Jesse on a journey to collect and play as many interesting instruments as he could find. Amassed in his Colorado studio is an amazing collection of instruments from the world over.
Seven Stars & Orion was inspired by the seven major stars in the Pleiades and their ties to history, religion and mythology. It was after reading the Sumerian story, The Epic of Gilgamesh (written in 2000 BC), that this album concept solidified for Jesse Maddox, the one-man mind behind Lessons From The Dreamtime.
From start to finish every track will keep you engaged launching you into a world that could have only been created by Lessons From The Dreamtime.
