THE DREAMER'S PARADOX

The Dreamer's Paradox, my second album, shows a strong development of the style and tone achieved by Anomalous Material. This maturation results in increased production quality, compositional strength, and diversity. Backing vocals are featured in one track and spoken words in another.

Conceived as a concept album, the Dreamer's Paradox prominently features recurring musical themes, acting as characters in a musical drama. The evolving and subtle themes interact with one another and are revisited throughout the album's length, creating the progress and mood akin to the telling of a story. The album was released in November of 2006.
