about

Even though I'm one of these precious singer/songwriter drips, one of my deep loves is instrumental music.
Truth be told, I actually prefer it to music with lyrics. Mostly because I find lyrics distracting when I'm trying to do something else. If someone's talking to me, telling me something, I'm keen to try and listen.
I feel I owe it to the person to at least pay attention.
Happily, that responsibility is out the window with instrumental music.
You just relax and enjoy the music.
Let it wash over you.

This album goes hand in hand with the Background Application V3 album, and also with the recently released, He Is Born.
All three of these albums breathe the same air.

Foreground is a bad little kid; a bit of a big mouth, rude, and will not do a damn thing you tell it to.
Think Frank Zappa, Steve Reich, Allan Holdsworth.
