'TRIAL BY INTIMACY REISSUE.'

I've just been informed by Esoteric/Cherry Red that the next album of mine for re-issue will be the 'Trial By Intimacy' box set. This will be a limited edition item and advance copies will be available from Esoteric at this year's Nelsonica convention. These copies will contain a card signed by myself. The reissue will not be generally available for some weeks later so Nelsonica attendees will have an opportunity to get their hands on this rarity at an early date. Stay tuned for more info as the project progresses.

In the main, it's a laid-back, minimalist style collection of instrumentals. Very simply recorded but intimate and warm...mainly keyboard/synth-based compositions with some guitar overdubs. Not jazzy but certainly 'cool,' and very pretty at times. It's in a similar sonic ballpark to 'Sounding The Ritual Echo' and 'Chance Encounters In The Garden Of Lights.' I'm very fond of this set. It definitely has its own personality and reflects where my creative imagination was at that time.

It will change your life. You will stand back in awe. For real.

One of the most amazing musical achievements ever released to the public.

Very happy to hear this news, Bill. A whole new generation and set of ears will get to enjoy this masterpiece til the end of time.

Thank you Cherry Red for putting this man's music in wider release..

Will the rerelease feature the postcard set and book?

As I knew nothing about this release I checked around the internet and found the following -

"The set, which we are lucky enough to number among our possessions, was released in an edition of 5000, some of which included a postcard set and "The Arcane Eye", a surprisingly impressive book of photography. All of this added up to a very nice package, which Nelson describes as a "musical sketchbook of instrumental moods captured during many private moments over the last few years.

This is the one I've been waiting for. I await in SLEEPLESSNESSSS !!!! The only BUMMER is that I cant make it to Nelsonica so Will not have a nice autographed copy :cry:

Some months ago I did buy two used CD's of the set from Amazon, but with the intention to buy the Esoteric reissue. Cant wait.

felix, This is VERY COOL stuff.

Same here Andre, not able to attend Nelsonica, so the autographed edition is out of my reach to

But................ it is about the music and like you I can't wait for this box set to be released
