Search - Julie Jamieson :: Drive

DRIVE...an inner force that leads one to compete, to perform, to excel; to sit behind the wheel before an open horizon or in town; an electric guitar technique (overdrive). All of these pertain to this collection of Julie Jamieson's truly original music. Often, an album either influences or matches the listener's mood, but DRIVE somehow does both. Through her passion for the universal language of wordless music, this composer guides the listener with rhythms and instrumentation that evoke visualizations of ideas and feelings. The variety of wonderful, complex harmonies transcends the boundaries of any single musical style, cultural influence, or instrument. From the stirring contrast of electric guitars and church bells in "Redemption" to the moody pipe organ and orchestral strings in "Affected", from the energizing and futuristic sounds of "Techtronic" and "Dream Factory" to the relaxing and uplifting "Seascape" and "The Four Elements", this music is a fitting companion for any journey. Reflect, dream, feel the music. Experience DRIVE.
