Description
One of the musical projects I'm working on at the moment has the working title Quicksilver as the semi-melodic pieces commonly make use of sounds that could be described as the sonic equivalent of liquid metal: not only are they very resonant and harmonically rich (often with a lot of high and low frequencies which can make the music sound very cold and yet somehow warm at the same time) but they tend to drift and wobble across the stereo field. I haven't listened to any of it with headphones yet, that'll be weird...
Anyway, I don't know when I'll finish this CD off but this is what will be the front cover, as it stands at the moment... I'm happy with it and don't think it'll change. It's basically just an earlier image from 2 years ago (Ice Elemental) given a colour tint and some typography.
Thank you for viewing and your feedback and criticism are appreciated :-)

Just the right colours, and the pose is strangely mysterious.

Yes, this is a wonderful choice for a CD cover... great colors too. All this talk of music makes me want to dig out my guitar again (sigh... I only do once a month at best now... kinda miss it).

Ah yes! Great CD cover indeed!! I love that green and the presentation is very stylish! Also, and as Cass said, it definitely goes with ur kind of music! Great one!

From your description I can almost hear this new music of yours! Seems like a step on from Heart of Glass, if I'm not mistaken. I expect that this pic will mirror the music perfectly. I'm always struck by the way you use reflections and refractions so extensively in your visual work. Glass and metal are the basic Synaptic elements. I'll chat more with you about music soon, I think it's long overdue! Cheers....
Synapse
It is indeed a step on from Heart of Glass, a touch more melodic although still with those icy-yet-oozing sounds. Also the pieces are generally shorter and more tightly composed this time around, still pretty abstract though ;-)

VEry professional and a tight crisp modern futureco techno robotoco feel I really enjoy this looks like a fabulous Album cover and I'm sure the music really rocks also!! Magnificant! :P

Here you have again all senses doing their work :-) This is bright, ambivalent, and impressive. Coming floating to my ears and eyes. This will be a real CD cover letting people know and feel the music before they've even put the CD on :-D

cold, yet so involving and attractive. Amazing luminiscences :)
