Allan Holdsworth - Sand download song

Someday humans will understand the link between what they now call "neuroplasticity" and what they've long called "aesthetics". Babies will be brought up listening to Allan Holdsworth. It'll be the anti-Brave New World world...

I feel like i'm outside of my current space and time, in the future, when I listen to Holdsworth. It's a very surreal feeling. If science fiction were music, it would sound like this. A totally alien experience.

one of the best music fusion ever!!

You simply can't teach this to a human or computer. This is true mastery.

This album was a religious experience for me and my friends back in the '90's. We'd take acid and listen to this. A soon as the first chords flew out of the speakers, we knew we were "home"...

Allan Holdsworth was from another galaxy.

I was listening to this in my car on my way home from college yesterday, and it was such a relaxing yet musically-impressive album.

This is what plays when a turtle dreams about flying through space

This man followed a path, and set up a camp. Awe inspiring view.

Sublime....Profoundly

By the way. The guy on the video from the SynthAxe guitar Demo had a link to this video of Allan Holdsworth we just listen

This track moves me

funny how many of the comments here are from the sort whod never choose to listen to holdsworth, but came anyway cos it was on a synthaxe demo or something. guess it puts into perspective how inaccessible some of holdsworths music is, especially his synthaxe era. In the least snobby way possible i think a lot of his synthesizer based music requires a more experienced listener to appreciate the intention as opposed to the pure sonic result. If he was able to hire an orchestra, for example, or be able to translate all his improvisational abilities onto any instrument, I reckon he would, but synthesizers were much more practical and affordable. For those trying to get into holdsworth his first two albums (and the road games EP) are without a doubt the most accessible and most known works of his. If you're not into them then leave it alone, but take our word for it that the guy is a fucking genius

I absolutely love this song.  It sounds a beautiful morning

That introductory drum fill... The attitude, the vision... this is much more human than it seems at first. There like ZERO robot on this.

Absolutely superb, in my opinion.  This song makes me feel happy like a summer day.  understand this song.

This album takes me to the place i always wanted to be.

This entire album is phenomenal! Johnson's bass parts are always perfect, and Husband is just as important on drums here as the sun is to the sky.

This song is like a ray of sunshine!  I smile every time I hear it. Thank you, Mr. Holdsworth and Co. Thanks You Tube
