Thermal Romantic Jazz, Music from the Edge of Passion. Smooth, Relaxing Jazz Instrumentals rich with New Age colors. Since his Debut Album release in 1989, Ground-breaking instrumentalist and self-taught keyboard aficionado Michael Lee Thomas has established a unique Multi-genre style combining elements of Jazz,New Age,Fusion and Rock. Michael has developed this tasteful mixture into smooth but powerfully composed musical Jazz Soundscapes. Calling the style "Thermal Romantic", the overall presence is a warm rhythmic feel, complimented with nice Grand Piano and well done Lead Synth emphasis. Each piece evolves & transcends through counter-melodic changes and lush passages maintaining a nice groove and drive. While Michael Lee's Hard Rock background influences the up-front Drums and strong Bass foundation on some cuts, another stand-out is his crafted use of fragile percussives. Adventurous and fresh, these expressive compositions have a soft edge that cuts through. Sometimes a slow Jazz funk and sometimes a delicate glide through a haunting dream. Michael Lee's vast experience with Soundtrack production has helped develop his mastery of complex New Age textures.
