Just before the New Year we finished the final mixes for Andreas Aleman’s new album IT’S THE JOURNEY… and it certainly has been one! We started working on this album back in early 2010… a lot has happened since then… and it feels great to finally get this one out there. We have a tentative release date set for late March in Stockholm. Please check back later for the final date and place. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who contributed to making IT’S THE JOURNEY. We are truly grateful to be able to work with some of the best musicians, mixers, photographers, etc., in Sweden. Everyone did an incredible job and we’d like to sincerely thank you all.

Happy Holidays!

We are launching multiple websites today! We have new versions of www.eidolon.se, www.andreasaleman.com, and www.brianhobbsmusic.com. Please check them all out!

Exciting new things are happening. Andreas Aleman’s debut album, THIS IS LIFE, was released earlier this year to excellent reviews and his shows at Fasching have proven that he is an artist you should keep your eye on… next stop the US and other markets. We’re currently writing songs for his second album, which is scheduled to be released sometime in 2010.

Eidolon is now also cooperating with the site www.nordicwellbeing.com where I’m providing seasonal music depicting the beauty of the Nordic region. Please listen to my new piece, Autumn Dreams there. I also have a new column there where I will be featuring new (and old) CDs by Nordic artists. Please check it out!

Nordic Soundscapes

New albums are also underway with Mia Löfgren and Monica Silverstrand.

Another exciting piece of news is Eidolon’s move into audio post-production in cooperation with Marcus Black of Detona Music. Through our cooperation and expertise we will be able to supply clients with the highest quality audio post-production work including mixing, editing, voiceovers and original background music/songs for commercials, documentaries, instructional videos and any type of media presentation.

As always, personally I’m involved in many different projects. For more information about all that please visit: www.brianhobbsmusic.com

Also, please take a look at the media player to the right where I’m featuring songs that I and Eidolon have been involved in as a writer or producer. You can find some of those featured songs on albums in our STORE.

Thanks for visiting the site and I hope you’ll come back often. I apologize for not updating the old site as often as I’d have liked to, but thanks to this new platform and technology I plan to be more active in keeping you updated. You can also sign up for our newsletter, which includes  important info about concerts, giveaways and other news. Just mail me at info@eidolon.se and write “sign me up!”. Please include your full name.

And feel free to let us know what you think about the sites.

All the best,

Brian Hobbs- Eidolon Productions
