Wayfarer Records Press Release
My new album for Wayfarer Records was announced today. Read the press release below:
Wayfarer Records Sampler
Today sees the release of a Wayfarer Records Sampler CD that includes a song from my Dreaming in Numbers album. “His track, “The Duality of Breath” is an ultra-relaxing piece good for study, sleep, meditation, or just general relaxation.”

Dreaming in Numbers
“Dreaming in Numbers” arrives in two weeks on Wayfarer Records. Unlike a lot of my music, this album is meant to be calming and meditative. Dave Luxton Music mixed/mastered the album and Josh Brockett did the cool artwork.
Prog On Review
Thanks Neil Folkard (Prog On) for the review: “On The Compromise Rationale the second part of a trilogy (part one being Fictional Mirrors), Jason layers multiple Warr Guitars and experiments with all kinds of effects, to create a truly menacing and unearthly musical landscape. At once cinematic, haunting and image-provoking, this is truly musical food for emotional thought.”

New Ambient Album
In 2020, I released the first album in a series of ambient explorations entitled, “The Darkness Found in Shadows.” It was music designed to accompany each of the seven deadly sins. In 2021, I released, “The Perfect Fallacy,” a soundtrack to a reoccurring dream. The next one is called “Dreaming in Numbers” and is a musical representation of numbers as they appear in our mind during sleep. Mixed and mastered by Dave Luxton Music, the album will be released by Wayfarer Records on January 27, 2021. More info coming soon. In the meantime, stream or buy the previous releases everywhere.
