Dreamgaze

Bio:

‘Dreamgaze’ was formed in 2008 by Michael Wooley and Fuchsia Angel of Bella Lune. They met in an internet radio station chatroom, where they realized they had nearly identical taste in music. Within a couple of months, they began recording their debut album ‘Sound Colour’ in two separate studios, hundreds of miles apart. They released "Sound Colour" on Aetheria Music in October of 2009.

Michael is a music fanatic and has been playing guitar since the age of 12. His other music projects include, 'Spiral Path', 'The Sound of Her Wings' and 'The Last Ghost'. He is also a freelance artist, who has had his artwork featured in Tattoo Flash, Tattoo Savage and more recently Morpheus Tales ( from the U.K. ).

Fuchsia Angel learned to play music on the violin at age 8. She learned how to play the guitar and bass at age 19, and started her first band 'Annadyne' shortly thereafter. She is now the primary singer/songwriter for 'Bella Lune', who released its first full length album 'Abstracted Visions' in October of 2007 and second album 'Synesthesia' in July of 2010.

The 1 masterpiece of 2009: Dreamgaze's debut album "Sound Colour". My number 1 choice for best album in 2008 was Bella Lune's "Abstracted Visions", which is lead by bewitching diva Lady Fuchsia. Miss Fuchsia and Michael Wooley partnered together to launch a new project in May 2008 called "Dreamgaze". Bella Lune "Abstracted Visions" is a fantastic sound world which has the charm of a sparkling angel and a bewitching little devil. Dreamgaze "Sound Colour" continues with the same sex fantasy, but with the impression of the relaxing sounds of nature with forest fairies. High quality synth sounds back the almost acoustic sounding guitars and somber bass, to create a lush Dream-Pop/Trip-Hop/Shoegaze/Darkwave sound. "Sound Colour" as the title suggests, is composed of colorful music. "Sound Colour" is the name of 12 stories. Listen to them gently, and the world of sounds will carry you away into loose consciousness. Fuchsia's vocals are sometimes like a child, sometimes like an angel, and sometimes even like a little devil. When finished listening, I am deeply moved and need to rest my mind. A Masterpiece has been released by Dreamgaze and it is called "Sound Colour". -- Bloodline 252 Japanese Dark Music Blog (Translated from Japanese by Google)

Although thousands of miles apart (Phoenix and Detroit), Dreamgaze is the side project of Angel Fuchsia, Bella Lune vocalist, and Michael Wooley. They formed in May 2008. They decided to unite to create atmospheric and somniferous songs (in a good sense of the word), which are achieved in their debut album "Sound Colour". While the songs are well produced, they at times become very linear and it is difficult to differentiate from one another. Unlike Bella Lune, here the songs are slower, but this is no problem for fans of shoegaze, dream pop and the like. To my taste highlights the hazy "Shadow Walk", the melancholy "Soft Places" and the hit of the album, "Wasteland." It is out of line "She Whispers Silently, which is busy with electronica. A recommended album for fans of Cocteau Twins and Cranes, numbing the senses. -- My Beloved Darkness (Translated from Spanish by Google) Other musical projects:
