Dream Requiem(2025)⏳[Updated!]

Mats Orveland/"MO-PROJECT": 
Composer, keyboard and drum-programming, (exept where other mentioned). 
My music is often improvised, and several songs are actually unfinished song drafts. But I hope you can ignore that and instead listen to my feelings and my thoughts. I like to play with sounds, ambient, effects, electronic instruments and tools. Drawing influences from different electronic music genres. Mostly Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre and Tony Banks. 
Relax and breathe, to my sound-carpets! <3

Every track was recorded between 1980 and 2025.

Some of the instruments and machines: ARP Odyssey Synthesizer, Roland D50, Yamaha DX7+RX11, Korg M3R, Roland tr808, Roland R8, Roland JX3P, SIEL Poly Synthesizer, Roland Digital-Sequencer CSQ-100, TEAC PortaStudio 144. Plus computer software programs.

"Instead of shooting arrows at someone else’s target, which I’ve never been very good at, I make my own target around wherever my arrow happens to have landed.
You shoot your arrow and then you paint your bulls eye around it, and therefore you have hit the target dead centre."
— Brian Eno
