A Produce
1995 Trance Port TPT-105 (CD)Many of you know highly-regarded veteran ambient artist A Produce passed away in 2011. We are offering three standout releases that represent some of his fine work. We received these in limited amounts directly from his family, and they're being offered while supply lasts.
"A Produce has done it again with his best work ever, WHITE SANDS. This is one of those recordings that gets better with each listening. Is it because it's timeless, trance inducing, yet 'alert' music? That rare moment of clarity when one is quiet yet very 'alive'? Or is it a reflective, sonic snapshot of an at peace artist? A Produce, I feel, is on to something." -- Dwight Loop, Santa Fe Sun, 9/95.
"This is a contemplative, diverse mix of slow ambient synthesizer places that compare favorably with similar works by Brian Eno, Steve Roach, Aphex Twin and Sati. The CD flows well even though it contains a considerable variety of sounds, and merits a serious listen. There is something here for every New Age/ambient/space music enthusiast -- electronic New Age, tribal techno, meditative, ambient and sombient pieces, as well as works falling between definable genres, making this one of my favorite recent releases of ambient music by a single artist." -- New Age Voice, 10/95.
"A Produce has consistently turned out albums of highly evocative and frequently very beautiful music which has on occasion been referred to as 'trance' music but would more accurately be described as 'sound paintings.' Each place evokes a place, a natural environment, a state of being. The composer is subtle in his use of eclectic resources that span the techno-tribal spectrum... The WHITE SANDS anthology is a perfect introduction to this talented artist's oeuvre." -- P-Form, 6/96
