I thought I'd share some of my recent music here. Here are three tracks from my upcoming concept album inspired by Frank Herbert's "Dune". As its instrumental, the connection with Dune might seem a little vague to some people. The music just came to me while I was binge reading the book and rewatching Jodorowsky's Dune.

Track one: "Celestial Vagabond"

Track two: "arrival on Arrakis". The year is 10,191. House Atreides, on the Emperor's orders, arrive at their destination, the planet of Arrakis - home to the Fremen, the spice melange, and Shai-Hulud.

Track three: "dance of the fremen". Moving swiftly, stepping lightly, and with an irregular motion of their feet, the Fremen would avoid detection of the Sandworms. The arrhythmic dance, contrasting with their distant Thumper-decoy, was the only means of safe passage across the sands of Dune.

There's varied influences here though Tangerine Dream have obviously inspired a lot of what I've done here. I hope you're able to listen and enjoy the music and there will be more to follow as I aim to have the album completed nearing the end of the year.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thank you,

Rory

Three stigmates of Palmer Eldritch Smile. Will listen. I like both Herbert and Froese.

Very impressive! As another fan of Herbert and Tangerine Dream, I would be interested in buying the completed album, as well.

Are you familiar with the 1992 video game Dune made by Cryo? I found its music very fitting and atmospheric.






I also love Brian Eno's Prophecy Theme from the David Lynch Dune film, composed before Toto took over the soundtrack.



By the way, the links above don't work anymore. I had to go to the following links in order to listen to the compositions:
