An introspective music that tends to explore the deeper layers of reality and human spirit, expressing the concept of simultaneous coexistence of duality as the true nature of the world, and the persistence of equilibrium in extremes, thru a wide range of music from light ambient to dark industrial/noise. Main idea: The material world is an illusion. Life is just a game and this is the most serious way to be. The purpose of life is already won and can never be lost. This world has no beginning and no end, and so is the infinite and eternal spirit within us. Once found a certain proof of the true nature of our spirit, no force in the universe, nothing and noone can influence us.

NEW: Album Pure Land by Marcel Gherman alias Megatone has now been released as digital download on digital label Tibprod Italy
http://www.tibprod.com/italy/electronic-music-mp3-megatone_pure_land.htm
Recommended for fans of Vangelis, The Orb and Jerry Goldsmith. Album Pure Land includes 18 tracks and has been quoted in Artemi Pugachev’s Encyclopedia of Electronic Music as highly cinematic symphonic synthesizer music. The full review by Artemi Pugachev may be read on the same link.
The album is a collection of vast sounding neoclassical cinematic music combined with hyperreal sound design. The material was gathered during several years of work. All sounds are originally synthesized and also feature originally synthesized sound of rain, water, fire, forest. It is a journey into an ethereal realm of magic, inspired by one of Marcel Gherman’s recent fantasy literary projects. Some of the tracks on album Pure Land were broadcasted on international FM radiostations.
Track INFINITY - vast symphonic harmonies combined with dense masses of digital sonic particles as made of liquid metals and precious stones, that transform in the end into a fully artificial sound of a crystalline falling rain.
BLACK LOTUS - a breathtaking nighttime panorama of a metropolis in the future.
SUNSET ON CORUSCANT - the central planet of the Galactic Republic. Vast space harmonies, dub beats, the sound of wind at high altitude, the sound of starships passing by with their reactors burning.
NEW - track BLUE SKIES OVER ARCADIA - cinematic neo-classical. All sounds are originally synthesized.
Arcadia was a very prosperous province in Ancient Greece. Track "Blue Skies Over Arcadia" portrays a phantasmagorical celebration of a prodigious civilization in a parallel world Ancient Greece or Rome.
