INFORMATION
In the summer of 1999 I moved all my equipment to the attic at my friend Ewout’s home. Earlier that year there was made a selection of tracks which had been composed in the previous two years, and which was likely to appear on the final version of my debut release “Exhibition of Dreams”. The basis of the tracks was recorded on my brave old Atari computer. Because the original recordings were made with minidisc, without the possibility to dub anything or edit afterwards, all tracks had to be recorded in just one take.
In the two weeks of recording sessions there had been recorded quite some different takes of the same tracks, of which the best recordings were selected to appear on the album.
In December 1999 the final double cd-r version of “Exhibition of Dreams” was distributed in a limited number of copies through several music stores in the Netherlands. After having sold the album to family and quite some enthusiastic people, one copy reached Dutch electronic music label and mailorder Groove Unlimited, which released my first official cd-release “The Art of Imagination” nearly a year later. As a result it was decided that the production of “Exhibition of Dreams” was not being continued.
However, ten years later, the original recordings from 1999 were remastered entirely, and an official factory pressed double cd of “Exhibition of Dreams” could finally be heard by a larger audience.
To expose the development made in the past ten years, I also recorded and released newly arranged versions of a selection of the tracks of “Exhibition of Dreams”, as “EoD” (later renamed to “Exhibition of Dreams revisited”).
Although “Exhibition of Dreams” celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2024, there was decided not to have another remaster, limited edition, or whatsoever, but let you experience the music from the 2009 remaster, just as it was intended to sound.
The previous packaging for the 10th anniversary was customized, and has been sold out in the meanwhile. And so have the 20th anniversary limited editions. For the remaining cd stock there was decided to produce this packaging.
The artwork of this release has been revisited and derrived from the original images.
For the completion, the 20th anniversary artbook has been included. Containing background information, stories and photos, offering a complete overview of this well-respected electronic music album.
Enjoy the music!
