Sounds Like
If synthpop, alternative 80s, and indie/shoegaze had a love child, its name would be Bella Lune... The sound is dreamy and psychedelic... A fusion of guitars, synth bass, electronic and real drums, ambient pads, strings, piano, bells, etc etc...
"Imagine if Cranes and The Cure met in a dark alley... Abstracted Visions will appeal to fans of both bands as well as Cocteau Twins and Curve. -- Auralgasms.com"
"On their debut album, Bella Lune draws influences from many of darkwave and coldwave's luminaries delivering a record that will appeal to fans of Collide, and Switchblade Symphony. The final product 'Abstracted Visions' is a fusion of modern trip-hop electro and post-shoegaze sensibility, interlacing slinky vocals and catchy synth lines, resulting in an engrossing listen that simulates the feeling of flowing through water. -- Musicfolio.com"
Fuchsia began playing instruments and writing poetry at a very early age. She started her musical career as the vocalist in the band Annadyne, in 2002. After Annadyne broke up in 2005, she began writing guitar-based songs on her own. She met Kal3id in October of 2005, and formed the concept for Bella Lune shortly thereafter. Kal3id provided additional arrangement and instrumentation for the first album, and helped Fuchsia to mix, produce, and master the songs. Bella Lune released the album "Abstracted Visions" as a digital download on October 31, 2007. The CD became available in print on March 31, 2008. They recruited Hurley to play live synth for their first official gig on April 13th 2008, opening for The Strand. Currently, Bella Lune is focused on writing and recording the second album, which will be released in the spring of 2009. Stay tuned for updates!

your welcome for the sweet comment. tis always great being productive and doing something that you love. i've been doing rather well. It's been a week since I returned from my trip. I've been to a few gigs here and there.
Hey hun, how are you? An how has your week been going? I just checked out the music on the Dreamgaze. I love the 2 songs that are up. and I look forward to hearing more songs. I hope all you're doing well. Take care and have a good night.
Yeah I'm always complaining about being a "slave to the wage", especially since I'm someone that would actually accomplish something and other people are so worthless!
I remember you telling me that you get paid more too... Where do you work? I feel I have too much responsibility to risk that kind of change though... *sigh*
