Darrens CD EP was initially put together as a collection of 4 track demos for promotional purposes, but given the surprising results with the sound quality it has turned out to be an example of what can be achieved within the limitations of 4 track recording (analogue) with a little time and thought. The music has been described as an eclectic mix of instrumental rock tunes ranging from the laid back feel of "Mystery" to the up tempo title track. With many favorable reveiws and airplay in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Italy, The Netherlands and the U.S. the CD has proven to be a good starting base for Darrens recording carrer. Meanwhile Darren plays in hard rock band "OTHERWORLD" in his home city of Adelaide, Australia. You will soon be able to visit the bands website where you can listen to samples of their brand of melodic hard rock. Please email Darren if you have any comments (good or bad) on his music. |

Below is a list of quotes from various reviews. If you would like to see the full review let me know and I will email it to you.
June98: hEARd online demo reviews:The title track is probably the best example of Darrens music, with some rather excellent riffs brought from the instrument of choice and a very cool backing to.
June 98:Mixdown Monthly, Australia's national music newspaper: For a 4 track recording the overall quality is quite amazing, and the low cost production aspect presents no lack of sparkle in the music.
July 98: Artifacts online metal zine: "State Of Illusion and "Vision Splendid" are beautiful pieces that mix new age music with a little bit of rock. The melodies are great soothers and Darrens fluid guitar playing is very evident here.
Aug 98:Rock And A Hard Place Online: Darren has a great feel to his guitar work, its a very pleasent relaxing tone but it still has an edge to it. He has put together some great compositions here, you get the feeling of cruising down the highway with the top down and the wind blowing through your hair.
Sept 98: KOFX FM Oakland California: Recorded and produced by himself on a 4 track cassette deck Darren Wilsons "Under A Watchful Eye" holds its own against even the best guitar rock that America has to offer. |
