ALBUM DESRIPTION Introducing a new dimension to new age with this stunning debut album using synthesizer, guitar, violin and voice to accent original Native American flute compositions. MUSIC QUOTES written by sound reporters, producers and music labels Sleepwalker has the potential to take the new age world by storm. Masterful flute backed by equally precise percussion are the focus of this group, while pleasant and oh-so-interesting violin, bass, vocals and guitars help weave the fabric known as Sleepwalker. I haven't heard more haunting flute outside the Lakota Nation. American Native and East Orient influences are appearant, but the compositions of Lyubomir Yordanov are unique and each carry his creative stamp. The debut album, "Flower Of Life" does not sound like a debut. It plays like a fifth or sixth album from veteran musicians. The melodies and harmonies are tight, seeming like natural and spontaneous explosions of Mother Nature's own expressions of joy and celebration. This flower has bloomed fully and its beauty is there to be shared by the world. Jef Peace (Peacework Records) Flower of Life probably holds more variety than fans of Enigma/Delerium have come to expect from this genre. However, while some of the twists and turns may take a while to get used to, your patience will be rewarded with music which is like a rich tapestry filled with brilliant vibrant colors and fascinating textures. Both artistically and technically, the CD is an achie.

The best I can do is describe Sleepwalker's music as ethereal poetry put to music. The Flower of Life album is an inspiration for the soul and full of passionate emotion. You'll realy have to listen to understand how much passion. Beautiful. Jewels (JIVE Magazine) This release offers a dose of substantive new age compositions that is wholly worthy of deeper attention.
