Moments

Road Trip is motion as meditation. Every track opens a different window into the long drive: the pale light of early morning, the strange little towns you’ll never visit again, the wild skies, the empty gas stations, the motel signs buzzing in the dark, and the quiet arrival at the edge of the ocean. Acoustic folk and retro pop blend with cinematic post-rock, ambient jazz, disco, and field-recorded textures. It’s not about the destination. It’s about all the miles that change you on the way there.

Border of the Sea

Chill lo-fi beat for when you miss someone but can’t say it.

Bio:

Immersed in the synth-pop and electronica of the Eighties growing up in southern England, State Azure (b. 1972) found early inspiration in Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis. Deconstructing their tracks ignited his passion, leading him to develop a foundational understanding of electronic music theory, composition and production entirely by ear and experimentation.

He honed his skills as a keyboardist and producer within live bands before venturing into solo ambient/experimental territory. This self-taught journey fostered a deeply improvisational and emotional approach, free from the confines of formal training.

State Azure's sonic world is further shaped by influences beyond music, drawing heavily from science fiction, cosmology, physics, and technology.

Seizing the opportunity presented by the burgeoning online music scene, he launched the State Azure project to connect directly with listeners, debuting with the album 'Outlines' in December 2011.


Thanks for listening and leaving your comments/feedback, it's very much appreciated and really helps to keep me motivated and pushing forward.
