OUR FEATURED ALBUM IS “QUEST FOR THE RUNESTONE” BY DAVID ARKENSTONE
Multi Grammy® nominated David Arkenstone’s music has been featured in numerous films, television shows, video games, and NBC Sports themes. With over 1 billion streams on global platforms and over 70 albums released, it’s safe to say his status as a prolific and influential composer in the world of New Age and fantasy music is profoundly solidified.
David’s new album, “Quest For The Runestone,” is based upon a story written by his son, Dashiell Han Arkenstone. The storyline, essentially, is that a young female warrior becomes the keeper of an ancient magic that protects her mountain village from the natural, and at times, dangerous forces surrounding them.
Composed, performed, and produced by David, the album features David on guitar, cittern, saz, flute, whistle, melodica, drums and percussion, handpan, bass, vocals, and keyboards. As well, joining David on the album is a host of top-rate musical talent: Eric Rigler (“Braveheart” and “Titanic” – Uilleann pipes), Luanne Homzy (violin, Hardanger fiddle), Kimberly Zaleski (flute, piccolo, bass flute), Carlyn Kessler (cello), Clara Sorace (vocals), Sergio González Prats (hurdy gurdy), Dov (violin, viola), and Giulia Colantonio (vocals – From Ethera Gold Atlantis).
The twelve-track album opens with the exciting, “Prophecy.” Ethereal vocals and primeval drumbeats draw us right into the intrigue, the build is exquisite, and we are off delightfully into this wonderful and impressive fantasy.
