Horizons of Tranquility

First album
released Nov 7 2020

DREAMS AETERNA is a french metal solo project from Bourg en Bresse (France).
Through the compositions of Julien Fey born a universe of reveries and hopes.

From heavy metal to progressive metal, this is a journey into influences merging together as a modest tribute to major names of rock and metal music. This first double CD 20 tracks album was created during a 5 years timelapse and is a milestone in maybe more to come...

Double album, 20 tracks, piece of art digipack, 5 years of composing, 2 years of waiting...This was something ! For an amateur musician, this project was huge, but entertaining and will last in memories. The result is surely meeting the expectations and undirectly quite a way to thank everyone who was involved. The timing was not perfect, dark times surrounded the last part of editing, but maybe the title of this album was premonitory. Horizons of Tranquility will be...

From a project to another, life brings sometimes great meetings and experiences. This was first the spark of creativity. Art piece "Le Néant", painted as a gimmick, a compass. Leading the way. Influences, bands, music, from classical to the most heavy of rock. We don't control life, we don't control time. Time decides. And sometimes, time flies, days gone bye. New beginnings...This album is a snapshot of life, suffering, hopes, deceptions, bitterness, serenity, wrath, meditations...

Everything in this project is led by Julien Fey. But nothing is possible alone. Edouard Maurer (NoBox Studio) was hired in the first place to mix a classic 1CD 10 tracks album. Enthousiasm and strong influences where turning upside down everything for an entire new recording ! Absolutely unexpectedly, but in the good way, Aurélien Ouzoulias (Satan Jokers, Morglbl, The Prize) accepted to record all the drum tracks for a better acoustic sounding, prog spirit, like Edouard could do. But meanwhile, the project went from 10 to 20 tracks, half of the mixing, bringing double work for everyone ! Enthousiasm again...Freshness surely...

All the tracks are recorded by Julien Fey for guitars, bass, piano, and programmed for drum tracks.
Singing by Julien Fey and Emannuel Gonnot, backing vocals by Julien Fey and Laure Dechambenoy
