- Initially released on March 25, 2016 - Leaving Records now celebrates the 10-year anniversary with a limited double-cassette edition of the New Age / Ambient milestone from L.A. composer and Leaving Records label founder Matthew David "MD" McQueen. After nearly two decades of evolution, Trust the Guide and Glide remains a powerful statement of identity, and a new door into cosmic consciousness.
*"It’s Now! Eternally! Easy, Tender, Loving Sound.
The Guide is You. The Glide is Life. Be Yourself, Live Fully –
That’s what the Vibrations are Encouraging, Echoing,
Waving, Glowing, Singing, Rippling, Radiating.
*Matthewdavid’s Mindflight is Heart Music. It’s a record
of beauty that has evolved from explorations into his
deepest emotions, visions and imagination. The Flights
were most directly inspired by his profound connection
with Michael Stearns’ Planetary Unfolding (Continuum
Montage 1981). You can feel that Trust is it’s Brother.
Stearns speaks of Dreams, Resonance, Unity, and Ecstasy.
Matthew adds that this journey has been one of Healing,
Discovery, Finding, and Transformation. The two and
their kindred are wondrous Sonic-Energetic-Midwives
helping to usher in this age of Expanded Consciousness.
*The process and source are Extra and Terrestrial,
Synthesized, Improvised (Live on Dublab Radio) Meditations.
Sourced from the well of spiritual expression, these
recordings were further realized in Ableton. You’re flying
through the mystical world of Gilbert William’s cover,
the software technology is dancing with circuitry, Flute,
Harp, Hulusi, Water, Sonar, Quasar, and microtonal
language are Tied and Dyed in the moment.
*The Mind is programmed by the Heart. With an open
Heart the Mind can apply our gifts. I asked Matthew
what he’s seen on / in his Mindflights: “Unconditional Love!
Stillness – Centeredness,” he replied. “I’ve seen and felt
my ancestors, I’ve heard the songs of humanity . . .”
*Welcome, Listen, Hear, Here, Now, Celebrate!
**Joyously Written with Trust the Guide and Glide on repeat,
