Cheers to those who have been intrigued enough by the tongue-in-cheek promo blurb above and have ventured down for a bit more info!

Unlike a lot of other album descriptions, this one is in first person. There will be no âWho is Darkly Dreamingâ¦Darkly Dreaming is a complex personality as are the small breed of modern day renaissance musical geniusesâ¦â - just me telling you about my CD.

My name is Jeff and you may or may not know me from my band Neurepublik. Darkly Dreaming is my side project of decidedly more synthpop-leaning music. Iâve been around a while and Iâve had a lot of varied influences which I think all helped inspire me to create a new sound for the Darkly Dreaming project. Itâs overly more danceable than what Iâve done in the past. If I can be so presumptuous, I can easily see songs from âThe Stuff Of Nightmaresâ coming out of the speakers of your local club â âForlornâ and âSoulmatesâ in particular â and I think you may just be enticed to dance along. Lyrically, as with my Neurepublik songs, I explore my favorite themes of loss, depression, and angst â write what you know, eh? I try to give the stories the right balance of personal disclosure and ambiguity so that the listener can empathize and place themselves into the tunes. After hearing âThe Stuff Of Nightmaresâ, I really hope that you will come away with a sense that youâve experienced more than just a series of catchy tunes.

If youâre into electronic music, youâll probably like this CD. If you like synthpop with a slightly darker edge, Iâm almost positive youâll like this CD. If you frequent dimly lit clubs where the black-clad children of the new romantics dance to synthesized syncopation until way past last call, youâll most definitely like this CD! When you do get the CD, donât be a stranger. Shoot me an email and let me know your thoughts, Iâd love to hear them!
