Who knew the outer limits could seem so intimate? Jonn Serrie continues to flirt with the wonders of space and the romantic notions of its mysteries with the long awaited LUMIA NIGHTS. Serrie trademarks like velvety synthesizers, twinkly keyboard tones and brisk wind effects are used abundantly throughout these spacescapes. This time around, he also incorporates some minor rhythm elements and piano wanderings as well, which gives the music a slight jazz flair. Songs like "Starshower" and "Deep Mystery" will instantly appeal to fans of his earlier works; both are deep and airy with layers upon layers of dreamy synthesizers. Other pieces, like "Tidepools," show that the artist is not afraid to experiment with new elements.
