2)Is there any short way to describe your philosophy of music? Or is it best just to listen to your music to find it? 
As stated in the first question, music can serve such a variety of purposes,  flavors, tastes, depth,  emotion, and transcendence, depending of the consciousness of the composer,  and for which purpose the music was created.  As an artist, I am committed to grow and evolve and to explore new territory as my frame of reference expands and grows, so does the music. For me, music is one of the most powerful tools for attuning the human instrument to higher consciousness beyond the limits of the intellect and ego.

3)You are both composer, writer, and visionary artist, amongst other things. How do you see these aspects of your creativity complementing each other? And do you see them as just different aspects of greater creative endeavour? 
Iﾅfve been asked th is question many times.  I started out as a visionary artist, and as my work evolved, and my inner eye expanded, so did my consciousness, and at one point I had an intuitive flash while working on a painting ﾅgMusic of the Spheresﾅh.  The fluid, transparent  tonal qualities of light and hue suggested corresponding sound frequencies and toward the end of this painting,  was born the desire to translate this into sound or music.  It is during this time, that I was given the name Aeoliah. Two years later in 1981, I gave birth to my first musical recording, Inner Sanctum.

4)I sense the heart-light quality in your music. Do you let your heart and intuition guide your music making? Absolutely.  More and more, after 33 albums, I have learned to trust my intuition and not intellectualize about the creation  or production of the music, even though it requires a tremendous amount of technical ability and focus, especially when mixing and editing.  Since most of my work (editing)  on the music is done on the computer, I am learning to master right and left brain function.  For an artist these days, this is imperative, unless the artist chooses to hire an engineer who works with him for many hours to help him actualize that vision.  This is where I became dependent on hiring an engineer for all my recordings.  I think part of the reason that The Liquid Light of Healing went to another level both technically and spiritually, is because this was the first album that I was able to record, mix and master myself without an engineer.  I was able to spend as much time on the  creation  and editing of each piece until I reached that place of sublime surrender, both technically and artistically.  I am most excited about this breakthrough in my musical career, as it allows me to fine-tune and go much deeper into manifesting the kind of perfection and sensitivity that each piece requires.  I also grow so much through this process.  So it is a marriage of heart, and discernment, fine-tuning my instrument, inner eye, inner ear to these finer vibrations.

5)How do you compose? Is it an intuitional process for you? Do you start with some basic idea(s) or does the whole composition reveal itself to you (like in Mozartﾅfs case)? With the first two albums it was purely improvisational, and then with my third album, Angel Love I actually composed and wrote out each note of the music.  This process has always been an intuitive one, where I am guided from within.  Actually itﾅfs more like the music writes itself through me.  I am the instrument.
With my most recent recording, The Liquid Light of Healing, I was guided to go into the recording studio and to forget everything I have learned or think I know about music, composition, harmony, etc.  I was guided to go and have fun like a kid in a candy store.  This was a new and more fun approach to me, and the more I surrendered to this process by total learning to trust myself, so much magic happened that translated  into the sacred alchemy of sound healing.  Each step of the way, the music tells me what it wants next where a new sound needs to be introducedﾅc.when to add another sound to support or contrast the other,  when to create dynamic tension, when to resolve the tension and release, etc. 

6)Do you believe in muses or musical devas, gandharvas, etc? Where and how do you find the inspiration for your music and art? And do you sometimes have a parallel process with music and visual arts, where you paint musical canvas and orchestrate your paintings?  There are certainly motivating factors that inspire us.  I believe these forces or higher intelligences to be within our Self.  The more we tap into these inner resources, the more possibilities for co-creation exist.  When we tune into our higher Self,  and let go of the personal ego,  we are able to magnetize higher frequencies of intelligence, light, and love that can then be expressed creatively to serve humanity, as well as our personal evolution.
 

7)In your recording there are traces of Western classical music, symphonic structures, counterpoint and rich layers of sound, a bit like sound canvas. How do you find this music generally? Has it still something to offer in the spiritual sense and otherwise? And could your music be classical music of the future?
Interesting questions, as you  seem  to anticipate what I am writing and have answered somewhat in previous questions.  This feels awesome!   Iﾅfve been told  by quite a few people that  Angel Love, & Divinaura, are already considered a New Age Classic, so perhaps these recordings and others may survive passing trends, and one day be classical music for future generations. 

8)Do you believe in the music of the spheres? And if so, could we find musical information in the planetary movements and astrological configurations, too? 
I certainly do, as I believe that the movement of all celestial spheres in the galaxies and the universe emanates from ONE Cosmic harmonic Center whose  celestial sound vibrations may not be heard by human ears, yet it doesnﾅft mean that it doesn't exist.
It's just like the human eye can only perceive a certain limited range of colour frequencies.  This does not mean that the other colours do not exist.  It simple means that our limited human perception cannot see them.  The same with sound.  I am very inspired by the subtle tonal harmonic frequencies of these celestial bodies or spheres, not only in this physical dimension, but beyond.  Through accessing these sound frequencies, we can enter the Source or Center of all creation.

9)Edgar Cayce said many decades ago that sound and light are the healing methods of the future. Do you agree? Is there some meaningful interconnectivity between them through frequencies, octaves and wavelengths? And is this a key to the synaesthetic phenomena?
You are spot on!  Sound and light are truly the two universal forms of energy that exist beyond dimensional time and space.  These inner- directing intelligent frequencies of sound and light have been my main medium for the healing music and art.  The language of light is one beyond the intellect, and this physical universe.  The intelligent codes in this universal language of light stimulates our dormant DNA Codes.

10)How does music heal? Is it through some specific frequencies of the overall structure of a musical composition? Through the immune system or the chakras?  You seem to psychically anticipate every answer as I am touching upon each question in the last answer.  What an amazing flow of synergy.  That is the correct word: SYNERGY.  It is not the music itself that heals, but the vital interaction (receptivity) of the listener and the music.  The music is a tool and catalyst to open a portal for the active listener.  If the listener is not open or ready to receive these finer vibrations, they will not impact them.  The good news is that more and more people are ready, and actually eager to open to this next level of their spiritual awakening.  I think what makes my music a tool for healing is its ability to take the listener out of the mundane 3D illusions of the chatter-box-mind and ego.  The music is a catalyst to empty the mind of mundane thoughts and concerns, allowing a higher level of receptivity to be initiated, changing the brain waves, which then in turn alter our breathing, our heart rate, blood pressure, etc.  The most exciting aspect for me is how music can actually alter our DNA codes.  And thatﾅfs exactly what the creation of ﾅgThe Liquid Light of Healingﾅh is all about.

11)Who are your musical soul mates? Why?  They have always been Mozart and Bach.  Donﾅft ask me why because I donﾅft know.  It just is and has been that way ever since I started composing.  I feel they are my main music guides, although I am also deeply moved by Chopin, Faure, and Joseph Haydn, whom I love and adore, as he was Mozartﾅfs teacher.  My appreciation of music also embraces many other talented geniuses such as Franz Liszt, Scriabin,  Rachmaninoff, Corelli, Scarlatti, Puccini etc.  Some of the contemporary ones like Vangelis, Enio Morriconi, Kitaro, Sarah Brightman,  & Iasos have all inspired me and are my musical soul mates as well.

12)Have you any ideas of the future of music or the music of the future?
As each soul evolves, what they are able to hear and see changes.  As you expand your consciousness, and  tune into higher dimensions, what you will experience in terms of your perception will no longer be limited to the physical senses, and so the possibilities are amazing, especially as technology advances and allows us to interface with it in more creative interactive ways.  The marriage of spirituality and technology can be an amazing catalyst for the future of music. It already has been, but I believe that this trend will continue to evolve and refine itself, as human beings develop more discernment, and learn to harness technology for the benefit of all humanity and not for the control of the power-hungry or for greed.

13)Would you give some advice to the musicians-to-be, the music masters of the future? 
First and foremost, to develop yourself spiritually and radiate  more love and compassion for life and the world.  To find your own inner voice, inner guidance and by trusting your own creative ability.  Ask more questions, donﾅft believe everything you hear, see, or read.  Find out the Truth for yourself.  Dive deeper beyond the surface of appearances, and find out the purpose of your own existence and your special gift that you can share with the world.  Donﾅft be afraid of diving into the shadow side of your subconscious to access depth from the suffering and pain and then transform it into love, compassion and empathy.  Donﾅft deny the shadow side, as it will make the music more shallow & superficial.

14)Tell me a little bit about your studio and the main instruments you use. Some technical solutions on the latest CD are quite exciting.
I have a very nice recording studio here on Vancouver Island in Canada.  It has a panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean and Olympic Mountains.  I have about 7 synthesizers and digital recording devices I work with.  I actually like simplicity, so I have begun to simplify my recording process and the way I record, which is still evolving.  I am evolving my method of recording digitally so I can preserve the intuitive quality and how I approach the creation of the music as it comes to me, or through me.  I work primarily with the Korg Triton, The Roland Phantom, and the Juno G, JV 1010, etc.  Lately, I am going more Zen, as I prefer to work with less sounds, textures, and equipment. Actually, I challenge myself to be more selective with what type of sounds I work with, and how I use them.  I am going more minimal  and simple to allow for  essential transparency in my next two recordings.  To me less is more.Most of my work on each piece is done on my Apple IMac.  I love to work with Logic Pro as a music software for recording & editing.   There is always so much to learn, and I continue to learn by experimenting with all the effects, etc.  It gives me a lot of freedom to be creative in the technical aspect of mixing and fine tuning my mixes before the mastering process.

15)You live on the coastline in Canada. Is there any specific reason for you to live outside the hectic music business? How long have you been living there? Do you find the atmosphere inspiring? 
Yes, I certainly do. I canﾅft imagine a more perfect and harmonious  place for composing than where I live.  I live about an hour from the closest city, which is Victoria.  It is a small city of about 300,000.  I am about 12 minutes from the nearest small town which has about 5000 people, so it gives me a lot of breathing space as I have approximately an acre of land around with magnificent ocean and Olympic Mountain views surrounding.  I need to be away from the congestion of thought forms and the bombardment of high density populations in order to expand my aura and become an empty vessel for the music, writing, meditation, etc.  Meditation and music to me have become inseparable.  I have had this lovely retreat for over ten years now. In the winter, I usually go south to California. 

16)The Liquid Light of Healing concept (CD + book) is quite extraordinary and it offers a whole package of healing energies and DNA activation. Is this the consummation of your creativity so far and how did you start to build up this programme in the first place?
I would have to say a big YES, as the book has evolved out of the music, which came first.  I wrote the book to go with the music, so that people could have another frame of reference in order to understand what DNA Activation and the process of Ascension is about.  The book contains  a lot of practical information on the evolution of consciousness, chakras, healing, DNA codes, and how to access and transform these limiting codes into more functional, sovereign codes for our healing and Ascension.  I was definitely guided to write this book as a reference manual to go with the music.  Once again, the marriage of right and left brain that helps to facilitate balance and transformation.  The music too, is designed  to balance the two hemispheres of the brain, rebalance and open the cranial nerves,  as well as activating the new DND Codes on a cellular and atomic level.

17)In this book, you are offering an alternative way to the standard Western mindset with the old believe patterns. Do you see that the time is ready for a new spiritual revolution/revelation and the new codes you mention in the book? 
Absolutely.  It is imperative that we question limiting belief systems that are based on someone elseﾅfs truth, perception,  or opinion.  For those who are ready, the new DNA codes are being activated so that each human soul can recover their original sovereignty, and no longer be a slave to a consumer industry, religions, or belief system that was designed to enslave and manipulate the individual. The time has come to part the veils, and see what is on the other side   That is the great blessing of the information age and what technology can offer us today through the internet.  It takes courage to step outside the box, to  think for oneself, and to ask important questions regarding the purpose or our existence and how we came here in the first place.

18)Is the Language of Light a sort of universal language that is encoded in the very heart of existence? What is the best way to decode it? 
Absolutely.  The language of light is a universal language that is actually encoded in our evolutionary DNA, but is dormant and asleep in most people that are still trapped by the illusions of old paradigm beliefs, religions, personal ego, and socio-economic enslavement.  It is through meditation, spiritual development, and deep introspection that we slowly outgrow the old clothes that no longer fit our new expanded bodies of light.  All this information is what I talk about in depth in The Liquid Light of Healing Book.  Are you ready for the quantum leap?

19)What is your analysis of our times? Are we on the verge of something radically new, something that might bring a new, more comprehensive understanding of purpose to humanity? 
Yes, even during these times of intense change and what appears as chaos, is a powerful restructuring of new values, as the old paradigm collapses.  Something new and more functional must take its place for the evolution of  humanity and the earth.  This process can be quite volatile and unsettling, as this is what we are now experiencing in the manipulation of our economy, basic human values, weather and earth changes, belief systems, and socio-political ideology.  All this is a propelling catalyst for our own personal evolution as we learn more discernment between the real and false, between illusion and Higher Truth, between ego & higher Self,  which choices are destructive, and which are constructive.  These personal choices are what will determine  whether we  will transcend the  recurring cycles of creation & destruction that have prevailed and perpetuated the experience  or virtual illusion that is  perceived as 3D.
Humanity as a whole, has a tremendous opportunity to make this collective shift, as we approach Dec. 31, 2012, when our sun and earth planet will be in the very center of our galaxy.  This happens only once every 26,000 years.  I believe there will be some earth changes, but the most important changes will be experienced internally, as new reference points  will dramatically replace the old paradigm beliefs based on fear, greed, competition, manipulation, violence, and corruption.  Once again, this will be the choice of each embodied soul and will dramatically impact their evolution and quality of life on this planet as well as on other dimensions. I welcome this change, as humanity has been in the dark for too long.

20)Who are your main spiritual teachers or mentors? What are the main issues you have learnt from them?  Certainly the Ascended Masters such as Lord Maitreya, St. Germain, Master Kuthumi, Lord Krishna, Lord Buddha, The Christ,  Kuan Yin, and many others that are not known to humans in name or form.  These Great Beings of Light are all part of the fabric of my higher Self, who continue to guide me and humanity.  What I have learned the most from these Ascended Beings is how to open my heart, my third eye, and crown center to access Higher Dimensions.  Through this process, I learned how to expand my consciousness  and express more unconditional  love,  compassion, forgiveness, non-judgment and empathy for myself, my shadow, and humanity.  By focusing on Source, and  merging with my Higher Self, my ability to be an instrument for the healing and transformation of myself and humanity continues to grow and expand.

21)What are your future plans and projects, visions and hopes?

I try not to plan too far into the future, as I try to live in the here and now as much as possible.   I actually feel that I came from a future  timeless dimension and incarnated into a past time dimension (3D) to complete my personal evolution and for the service of humanity.  So the future at times, looks like the past.In reality, linear time,  beyond the fourth astral plane, no longer exists.

22)Anything else you would like to add here? About your work as a healer, perhaps. 
I would like to express my sincere love and gratitude to you for facilitating this interview, as I sense a Higher Intelligence asking these questions, and it has been a most wonderful process that once again, has been a beautiful co-creation of Divine Synergy.  May all who read this inter(inner)view, be blessed with greater and more clear inner vision and to know that we are indeed being guided by higher Intelligences within our Greater Self in the One-ness of All-That-Is.
