'Lunar' is 20 year old self-style composor Matt McKegg from New Zealand. Lunar's music fuses Electronica and elements of rock with the classic sound of the Orchestra.
The first album Hybrid Awaken, an epic blend of glitched-out grooves matched by inspiring orchestral arrangements, was released mid-2006 under creative commons as a free download. It has since picked up popularity and a large following on the social bookmarking website and community StumbleUpon.
In December 2007, Lunar quietly released Wall of Sound. The signature blend of electronica and orchestral from Hybrid Awaken remains, but this time the journey is deeper and darker.
"What I love about the album is the feeling of 'I've heard this before' combined with 'I wanna hear it again'. It feels kind of like background movie music made more listenable, and far more enjoyable and interesting than most albums." - Samantha
I came across some of your music the other day, and I'll be honest: It's some of the best stuff I've ever heard. I love it. I've been raving to all of my friends about it, and they love it, too. I can't wait to hear what else you've got in store; keep doing what you do, mate. Fantastic.
I just wanted to tell you how great you are, you have my support and i wish i knew if i could do something to show my support. Thanks for such great music, and thanks for the inspiration i usually get from your music.
Your a very talented man! Thanks for your gifts. Just keep making it up. Never ever stop playing. Be the greatness you see in yourself. Love & magic to you brother.
Hi Matt, I heard your album Hybrid Awaken for the first time a little over a year ago, and man! what a good album! You are seriously talented. The new album is sounding great too. I wish you all the best for the future. Keep well.
