David W. Aucoin - Song Writer How the CD 'Heart of the Earth' was born. As a guitarist singer and composer for over 35 years I have enjoyed playing pop blues, rock, country. Most of my music including songs written for other people consists of lyrics that are suggested by the music itself. "Heart of the Earth" is a departure for me. With this instrumental album and other "movie theme" cuts that I've been writing for years the music flowed into my guitar and opened my creative ideas for accompaniments by several other instruments some of them unusual and even exotic. On this album you will hear piano guitar, synthesizers, percussion, strings, ambient voicing, gongs, ambient fluting, whales, birds, brass, and more. I hope you find this CD pleasant interesting, relaxing and uplifting and will share it with your friends and loved ones. To me music has an awesome ability to build bridges and heal people. My future plans are to work with music to help heal people spiritually. "Heart of the Earth" was smooth flowing and most of all lots of fun and exciting to create. I look forward to composing a lot more instrumental music. While "Heart of the Earth" is not a classic meditation CD it will take you into a slower more relaxed state of mind. The slow movement of the chord progressions helps massage therapists create an environment of peace and relaxation. It starts out with minor chords to set the relaxed mood. Next it slowly moves into the matrix of the CD and ends with an uplifting song. My thanks goes to My Lord Jesus Christ for the gift he has allowed me to have. God Bless ! David W. Aucoin
