Milan, ITALY July 30, 2005 -- Grammy Winning artist Sananda
Maitreya releases his finished and mastered album "Angels &
Vampires - Volume I". From May 2004 till May 2005 Sananda
gradually released the rough versions of the songs in Chapters
on his website, with the music download service WeedShare, which
allows file-sharers to participate in the distribution and earn
money from it with a share in the sales up to 35%. 

The mastered version of the Album is now available, also for
Mac-users, to download as single songs or as full album. 

Sananda first announced "Angels & Vampires" as his follow-up
project to his last release "WildCard – The Jokers' Edition" in
2001. Maitreya about the project: "Angels & Vampires relies
quite heavily for its musical support from the four basic food
groups of live music: real drums, bass, guitar and keyboards and
went with a more intimate and organic sound in order to
reintroduce sonic sub tones back into the bodies energy matrix
long weakened by compressed digital overload and its over
emphasis. Sonic sub tones help to bolster the bodies
electromagnetic and sense of overall wellbeing. Angels &
Vampires also sought to create a sound base which would provide
more emotional space in which the songs might breathe and feel
less constricted. I felt that the WildCard project was a little
too "studio-orientated", but was what the time and circumstances
required. With this project, I wanted it to be less about the
studio and more about me and the songs”.

The term he uses to describe this new music and more organic
approach is: POST MILLENIUM ROCK. 

All songs are written, arranged, produced and performed by
Sananda Maitreya, except for "Angie" which is written by Keith
Richards and Mick Jagger. The project was recorded at Jungle
Sound Station Milano and mastered at Nautilus Mastering Studios
in Milano – Italy.

There are no plans for traditional CD distribution, each
customer will be able to download the CD cover and the Booklet
from the website.

the release of: * 2001/2003 "WildCard -The Jokers' Edition" *
