About College Music:
At College Music, we find and showcase the latest work from up and coming artists. Whether you're about to go out, having a party or just relaxing; we aim to represent something exciting, attractive and inviting. The name originated because a small group of friends while at college struggled to find music which had originality and didn't conform to the generic "pop" which was consistently released to the public. College Music is about new music from unheard artists and providing a platform for them to be heard by listeners like us. We firmly believe that a brand’s name, ethos, and content should all align together. For us, our name ties in perfectly.

"Thinking Like a Mountain" by Mike Howe

Mike Howe is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and recording artist. Mike has been nominated in the ZMR Awards as voted by broadcasters worldwide for each of his 3 albums, starting with Best New Artist in 2009 for "Time Stands Still", and Best Acoustic Instrumental Album for his follow up album "Round River (2010) and again for his third album "Island Of Anywhere" (2011).

Mikes music has been described as "humble, heartfelt and strikingly beautiful".."and has an incredible talent in composing and playing gentle instrumental guitar music that seems to flow almost effortlessly, carrying the listener away on soothing waves of melodic and catchy tunes".

Mike is an ecologist and has worked for many years in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, which lies on the southwestern tip of Wales and is a place where big Atlantic swells wash up on some of the most stunning beaches, cliffs and islands in the world. It has been this interaction and enjoyment of nature and people that has inspired the music that Mike is now writing.

Mike's influences span many genres of music, and the sound he has developed on the acoustic guitar, backed by keyboards, bass and drums, which he also plays, reflect folk traditions and conjure up emotive images of nature and landscapes.

"Island of Anywhere is an exceptional album which presents Mike Howe in all of his brilliance creating music that is filled with passion and that will tug on the strings of your heart resonating with your spirit" - Michael Foster Editor, ambientvisions.com

"With a limitless sky and horizon as his inspiration, Howe is a master of pastoral composition that opens the heart as well as the ear. Tasty, gentle work that let's you enjoy simplicity and color in ways you might not have thought about when living life at 200 mph. More NAC than new age, this is a guitar man that adult listeners will know is the real deal. Very hot in a low fire way" - Chris Spector, Midwest Record.

“Howe excels at crafting warm, engaging lead melodies with nary a drop of extraneous hoopla” – Bill Binkelman, New Age Retailer

"For all the musicians that have claimed to pull music from nature, Howe puts them all to shame. Proving that his debut was no flash in the pan, this is an NAC guitarist that has chops and soul to spare and seems to be able to pull inspiration from a very deep well. This is must hearing for any serious acoustic guitar fan that wants nothing less than the real deal." – Chris Spector, MidWestRecord.com

……“But for now sit and lay your head back in your big inner tube and soak in the sun as you drift down the slow and easy indolent musical waters of Round River. Embrace the soft gentle rhythmic meandering of the music that will once again wipe away all your concerns of any challenging day." – Michael Debbage, MainlyPiano.com

“Much like his work on Time Stands Still, Howe thoroughly enchants listeners with his tranquil approach to the acoustic guitar, which focuses on slow, methodical music that highlights the warmth and harmonic capabilities of the instrument”. – Dan Cowan, Music Design

“More than anything, this music is humble, heartfelt, and strikingly beautiful. The warmth and serenity felt in the music are very personal yet easily accessible. The CD maintains a calming mood from start to finish, but the individual pieces are distinctive and unique. Sure to ease away the stresses of the day and create an enchanting atmosphere, Time Stands Still is a must for anyone who enjoys acoustic guitar music. Recommended! " – Kathy Parsons, MainlyPiano.com

All of Mikes albums are available from Real Music.com, itunes, Amazon, Tower, Barnes and Noble and many other stores.
