This is the follow-up to Michael’s previous CD, ALANTIS RISING, which was hailed by cdbaby.com as “one of the best new releases of the year”. INDIGO MOON is sonic alchemy. Relax and let the music weave it’s spell... taking you on a magical journey.

ATLANTIS RISING
Layers of dreamy synthesizer tones, ranging from deep
space to deep sea, blend with ambient guitar sounds that
occasionally give way to soaring and melodic Santana-influenced
leads. While always atmospheric, Atlantis Rising also adds
rhythmic grooves on some songs and features Michael Diamond's
artistry, not only on guitar and synthesizers, but on samples,
sequences and sound design. Along with very special guest
Steven Halpern, Atlantis Rising is pure sonic alchemy with
intricate effects and lush textures that evolve, morph,
and move around the soundscape, the listener will experience
a journey to magical realms... and beyond.
Price: $15.00

that range from languid and dreamy to more groove-fueled flights.

of gold and platinum-producing engineers, Flights of Fantasy is Michael Diamond's debut effort as a producer. The album has recently been
digitally remastered and has a new graphic look.
