Dear friends, music lovers and random passers by!
Today I announce the news that just some months ago I couldn’t even imagine. Today the exclusive, high-definition 24-bit remaster of Transport Aerian album Bleeding is released on the most open-minded and creative thinking label Melodic Revolution Records (USA). It is significant that my album is the first high-definition release in the history of Melodic Revolution Records. Although this format is gaining popularity amongst the most dedicated musicians, and the leading names in progressive rock have already contributed in developing the market of such releases, there are still not so many examples of 24 bit releases on the independent labels, so it feels natural for Transport Aerian to step into the high-definition area, opening this chapter together with Melodic Revolution Records, because, just as it was noted by most of the critics, our music is all about nuances, atmosphere and details – for transacting of which this format suits perfectly and it will hopefully please the most dedicated listeners.
This, in general describes why have we decided to make this release happen first. Our main goal is to bring our music to the wider yet interested audience in the most appropriate quality at the one hand, and to support Melodic Revolution Records and their noble job to help the novel and original musicians from all over the world with our contribution.
And we hope you will enjoy our effort.

Voice of the Enslaved will be the next release by Blake Carpenter and falls under the heading of a new solo project. Blake is the man that brought you the critically acclaimed album The Road to Avalon by The Minstrel’s Ghost as well as adding his signature style to the debut release with Corvus Stone.
Blake Carpenter describes this new effort;
“Are you aware of the manipulation and brainwashing we are subjected to minute by minute? If not then you are in for a shock. This is not a scam, this is not a hoax, and it’s a horrifying realty that must be told to all.
Voice of The Enslaved will be a heavy hitting album about being subservient and led to slaughter in this corporatocracy we live in. Voice of the Enslaved is full of not so subtle clues to how we ended up in this “1984″ scenario. It is not meant to be political but anti establishment. From the slop we watch to the slop we eat we are under the spell of a few men who wish to keep us all in the dark when it comes to their agenda. For decades we have been groomed to follow blindly, buying what they tell us to, eating what they tell us to, saying what they want us to, to believe that what they say is definitive. “Some of us have begun to awaken from our hypnotic slumber of obedience and are now trying to reach the rest of you so that we may fight the corporate giants with numbers instead of with money and violence. We as a people could never afford to fight them in court, which are controlled by them anyway, but if we all begin to take control of our own lives and our own destiny then we can stop this before it is too late. In a sense we would still be fighting them with money but by hitting them where it will do the most for this cause, the purse.”
Voice Of The Enslaved Is:
Blake Carpenter, Vocals, Keyboards & Acoustic Guitars (The Minstrels Ghost, Corvus Stone & Coalition)
Zoltan Csörsz Jr, Drums (The Flower Kings, Karmakanic & The Minstrels Ghost)
Petri “Lemmy” Lindström, Bass Guitars (Progeland & Corvus Stone)
Robert McClung, Guitars (Telergy)
Special Guests TBA.
Available mid 2014 on Melodic Revolution Records

THAT’S RIGHT FOLKS, THIS IS NO DREAM!!
Catch the Son of the legendary PHIL COLLINS in action, whom form the band SOUND OF CONTACT, who WON the 2013 LIMELIGHT AWARD, at the PROGRESSIVE MUSIC AWARDS, whom was VOTED THE BEST BAND OF 2013. :))
According to this interview from ASTRONOMY MAGAZINE, you’ll learn:
How Simon was influenced by the cosmos, when his Parents gave him a telescope at age 12 and how his interest evolved throughout the years.
How he was convinced that he wanted to form a ROCK BAND and why?
Most importantly, how he coincided MUSIC with the COSMOS in his latest album.
Here’s a quote, from Simon himself:
” Sound of Contact, as a band, isn’t afraid to ponder their place in the universe. And they want you to do the same. ‘ There’s so much music out there today that just doesn’t have any substance and doesn’t make you think,’ says Collins. ‘ It’s important for me to be positive in my music and to inspire someone to look at things from a different perspective. I’m trying to capture the sounds of the cosmos. … When people ask me about my influences, I don’t always say music. Carl Sagan is a big influence, Brian Greene, Elegant Universe. … A lot of people are calling the album ‘space rock.’ “

As described by ASTRONOMY MAGAZINE:
The songs have trance-inducing melodies but are peppered with hard-rock chords and jam-band meanderings. The lyrics follow a human, who decides to go off-grid in an extreme way, leaving Earth altogether and traveling through time and space. This person is not an astronaut but a dimensionaut, and the eponymous record takes listeners along for the journey.
