Fire of Dreams



Lauri Paisley - The Fire of Dreams

Another private release, this time on Methylunna Music. Lauri Paisley was a solo artist and as far as I can find, this is her only release. Lauri plays grand piano, 12-String guitar, electronic percussion, and "massive quantities of synthesizers". Some of the tracks have a classical feel while others, particularly on the b side, border on synthpop, The album was released in 1987.

Nope, not her only recording. I have in my possession her cassette album "Skywords" on Methylunna music #6.3 from 1985/86. Neil Nappe assisted. Richard Ginsburg of WFMU back in the day played both Lauri and Neils stuff on his show Synthetic Pleasure. Lauri has seemingly disappeared from contact, at least from an Internet perspective. Look here for an article from 1986!
