about

Over A Small Town is my first album and was released on the 29th of September 2009.

Around 2005 I decided to start looking into writing music on the PC, having dabbled with multitrackers and drum machines over the years but finding them a bit restrictive. I bought some software in 2006 called Reason 3 by Propellerhead and instantly found it easy enough to use and get started with.

The album took it's time coming together, a mixture of me trying to figure the program out plus wondering where to go with the music.

Over time, I found a basic vibe emerging that could grow into an album and before I knew it I had a handful of tunes on my side.

The inspiration was taken from a favourite nearby back road plus many others around the town where I live. My girlfriend and I used to go out walks and the peace and quiet was excellent. Away from the neighbours dog barking or the kids down the street shouting and screaming. The album is as much about escapism as it is about setting an atmosphere for the listener.

I'm proud of my work on the album and feel I've managed to capture what I wanted to capture. A mix of ambient tracks plus upbeat summery stuff all at the same time to give those who want it some nice background music.

about

Aonaran Scotland, UK

Aonaran came to life in 2005 when I decided to start dabbling with music of a more chilled out and ambient nature. I'm into all sorts of music but for most of my life I've listened to metal and rock so felt like a little something different would do me no harm. ... more
