Trance To The Sun features the dreamy and compelling sounds of musical
landscaper extraordinaire Ashkelon Sain, with a guided tour by sublime
vocalist Zoe Alexandra Wakefield. Their extensive, at times bizarre
songs cover tremendous ground while retaining a unique darkness and a
mysterious ambiance.
Trance To The Sun began in 1989 as Ashkelon's instrumental recording project,
yielding in 1990 the self-produced "Volcano", an album far ahead of its time.
1994 saw the signing of the band to TESS RECORDS. With the worldwide
release of "Ghost Forest" came the recognition of
Zoe Wakefield as a profoundly inspiring new voice in the ambient music realm,
being hailed even as the "New Queen of the Twilight" by the Italian music press.
Fresh from the recording studio with a wealth of new material, Trance To The
Sun toured the U.S. in support of their second CD entitled "Bloom
Flowers, Bbloom!" The ten new album tracks and a handful of compilation
outtakes that year demonstrated a major leap in the group's ability to chillingly
and understatedly convey their haunting aesthetic.
