Ah, Alexandra - if only it were as easy as it looks. Actually, I had a good grasp of it all, but piecing it together technically was a challenge. The reflective light on the figure was only a combo of my speculation and observation - no actual imagery to go on. Years ago, I would never, EVER have trusted myself to rely on these things alone. I guess I'm growing up.
But, I thank you for seeing it as whole and complete. This confirms my suspicions that it worked. Whew!
You can find Initial Ascent on CD Baby. Just type the band name into the search box. They give a more apt description of the music than I could write!

Beautiful, moody and evocative. I want to hear the cd also. It sounds like you and your friend have managed to be "congruent" (very difficult when working with musicians).. I like this a lot.

Now my 17-year-old son (a violinist and spare-time composer and portrait painter) wants to buy the CD also. He did listen to a segment of the music, however, so it wasn't just the cover, but it definitely had an influence on him.

Jean, Mark and Mischa - many thanks!
Mark, no worries. I designed the type and all the packaging. I taught myself Photoshop and Illustrator when the millenium turned over. I was once a full-time illustrator, so I felt it was prudent to know these things.
Alexandra! I must tell Phil that he is already influencing young musicians! He will be ecstatic.

It's a haunting visual, quite edgy, and almost gothic.

My thoughts exactly. Perfect for the music you describe.
