Lunar
  

'Lunar' is 20 year old self-style composor Matt McKegg from New Zealand. Lunar's music fuses Electronica and elements of rock with the classic sound of the Orchestra.

The first album Hybrid Awaken, an epic blend of glitched-out grooves matched by inspiring orchestral arrangements, was released mid-2006 under creative commons as a free download. It has since picked up popularity and a large following on the social bookmarking website and community StumbleUpon.

In December 2007, Lunar quietly released Wall of Sound. The signature blend of electronica and orchestral from Hybrid Awaken remains, but this time the journey is deeper and darker.

"...Theres's nothing really all that original about Lunar's music, but the way all those cliches from the past and present come together, makes for something decidedly different and entirely enjoyable!" - Amy V

"What I love about the album is the feeling of 'I've heard this before' combined with 'I wanna hear it again'. It feels kind of like background movie music made more listenable, and far more enjoyable and interesting than most albums." - Samantha
