about

San Francisco Bay Area composer and instrumentalist Michael P. Dawson presents Paleozoic, an album of musical contemplations of the period when complex life forms first emerged on our planet. The album is arranged in two distinct halves. The first part (Side One of the vinyl edition) features five intricately composed pieces combining elements of progressive rock, contemporary classical, and electronica. The second part (Side Two of the vinyl) is more abstract, ambient, and atmospheric—five sound paintings of an ancient earth. The spectacular cover art by Mike Menasco reflects the album’s theme with its depiction of a teeming undersea fauna of half a billion years ago.

Paleozoic is available in both CD and LP formats, the latter on colored vinyl, and as a digital download through CD Baby, Amazon, and iTunes.

To me, Ashore Anew, On the Crest, Elegy, and Krume feel like a deep devotional to personal loss. The soundtrack to an afternoon thunderstorm. The whole album has a really emotionally heavy and moody vibe, which I am here for. highnfiber
