I'm pleased to announce that my first professionally produced album is complete and available to stream for free on our SoundCloud page.

The tracks on the album are:

"Unimind" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/unimind-2018 - A track about the Universal-Consciousness

"We've Got One That Can See" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/weve-got-one-that-can-see - A track about a third-eye experience I had many years ago

"The Harvest" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/the-harvest - A song about The Harvest as described by The Confederation

"Get Higher" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/get-higher - A song about raising your level of consciousness 

"Thought Police" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/thought-police - A song about how the agents of the institutions of our society control our thoughts

"Sun To Man" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/sun-to-man - A song about the night I walked-in to this body in a rave in 1992

"Save My Soul" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/save-my-soul - A song about despair and denial

"Up Up And Away" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/up-up-and-away - A song about wanting to escape

Goodbye Forever?" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/goodbye-forever - A song about an age old question: is it really goodbye forever when we pass?

"On And On" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/on-and-on - A song about Reincarnation 

"Happy Ever After" - https://soundcloud.com/the-benhiles/happy-ever-after - A song celebrating the belief that eventually, we all live happily ever after

"We've Got One That Can See" and "Sun To Man" have samples of Carla in and "The Harvest" has samples of Don and Carla in.

I'm staring to write the next album in the next couple of weeks.

Enjoy!

Greetings Louisabell,

Thanks for the kind words!

All the tracks are composed, performed and produced by myself, apart from "Unimind", "The Harvest" and "Sun To Man" which were co-written by a good friend of mine. 

I'm responsible for all the singing and lyrics.

I'm fortunate enough to be able to afford professional engineers and it's been a dream of mine to create a pro-quality album for over 20 years.

Congrats on realising your dream! Your music is very uplifting. I think my favourites are My Life and The Harvest. The samples of Carla and Don are brilliant. Maybe one day you can make a music video.  Smile

I've actually paid a professional director to make a music-video for the band!

He's Justin Kerrigan who amongst other films, wrote and directed "Human Traffic", so it should be decent enough. 

Obviously I needed to make the music first, so now that we've a good selection to choose from, the video will get made in the next couple of months.

I'll advise on the forums when the vid is up on YouTube.  

I'm also going to put up static / text vids of the rest of the album on YouTube when I suss out the necessary technical skills to do so.

Cheers.  Smile
