Phil Krawczuk: Living on the Mountain
“Your music''s color is very changeable depends on location and mood, it makes sense?
Every moment .... Different feeling.............. It''s very hard to explain.”
Quote: Jin Seo (South Korea)
This Music deserves your ears, just sit back and relax for a good listen.
The further you get into the music the deeper it gets. The complex arrangements and the performances draw you in. Listen and you will hear the talents of world class musicians performing their craft.
This CD was inspired and written at Emerald Ridge Studio which is located on the mountain overlooking the beautiful Fraser Valley in BC, Canada.
These songs are really a compilation of influence from all of my favorite music which spawns from the likes of the Beatles, The Who, Miles Davis, all the greats, to the art rock and fusion of the 70s and 80s. As you listen though the CD you can hear different influences weave in and out of these artist original pieces of music.

With a variety of special guests like Glen Rowley (Solo Synth), Lillian Penner (Violin, Flute) appearing throughout the CD.
