Making Music, Saving Lives! A magical blend of Celtic and Andinian elements, melodious and emotive, #1 on the MP3 charts for 40 weeks, Ethereality had over 2.3 million downloads. All Profits from the sale of this CD are being donated to DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS. Well-known Spanish artist and scientist David Caballero (aka Gnomusy) signs on to support the charitable causes of Non Profit Music through the release of "Ethereality," a collection of Caballero's top ambient/New Age hits featuring an eclectic blend of Celtic, Latin and Andinian elements mixed with magical, fairytale-esque themes. Caballero has hand-picked the most popular of his tracks to comprise "Ethereality," the ultimate collection reflecting a lifetime of fantasies wrapped in music. Paradoxes are not strangers in Caballero's world. Besides studying and composing music, Caballero majored in Forestry Engineering at the Polytechnical University of Madrid; he is now a scientist who researches forest fire and information systems projects such as EUFIRELAB, co-funded by the European Commission. Devoting his professional career to the study and management of forest fires has kept him closely in touch with Nature, one of his greatest inspirations. He explains, "I used to bring a tape recorder with me on long walks through the forests. In them, I annotate ideas, sounds and even effects. New melodies appear suddenly anytime, they are mischievous animals and you must be prepared to capture them!" Caballero adds that "Ethereality" is dedicated "to the people who fight and die for the sake of a well-balanced humankind and to those who dedicate their lives in silence to Art and to the quest for beauty," as well as to his family and, finally, to Mike Oldfield, who Caballero refers to as "my guide."
