Product Description Born in Hollywood, CA in 1961, Davol moved to Colorado as a young boy. With primarily classical piano training, he developed an interest in electronic music as a teenager. High school and college years exposed him to jazz and classical harpsichord. Since the acquisition of a micro Moog synthesizer as a boy, he had an undying passion for electronic music and was addicted to the music of Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream. His first compositions became the collection of pieces on the Mystic Waters album. In 1988, Davol produced a short demo tape as a present for some friends. They passed it on to the president of Silver Wave Records, an independent record label in Boulder, Colorado. A recording contract was soon arranged and Mystic Waters made it to #15 on the Billboard New Age Chart, and remained on the charts for 25 weeks. The music from his albums has been used worldwide in TV, radio, video and multimedia productions. Interestingly, Davol's career was originally in microbiology, not music. He obtained his Ph.D. in 1989, and worked as a medical researcher until 1996 when he started a commercial venture, producing music for multimedia. This experience allowed him to write music in very diverse styles, and work with other instrumentalists. A vegetarian, French language enthusiast, and public health educator, he remains devoted to a number of different life passions, electronic music composition being chief among them. Review I can't recommend it highly enough if you enjoy music that goes straight into your bloodstream and makes you want to move. If you have friends that don't normally enjoy electronic music but who do like, e.g. '80s synth pop or the more electronic fusion side of smooth jazz, this might be the very album to bring 'em into the flock. A day like no other is a stunning display of an artist at the literal top of his game. I simply love this CD to death! --Bill Binkelman P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); About the Artist Born in Hollywood, CA in 1961, Davol moved to Colorado as a young boy.

Wonderful soothing music
Pro: The great thing about this track is that it has a great feel for it. When I'm doing stuff on the computer, it makes me feel so calm because I am naturally on edge because of so many things that I have to turn inCon: There are two tracks on this album that have voices added to it. I think one is some Asian language and the other is in French. I honestly think the music could have done better without the chit-chatting people in these tracks.Overall: I would recommend this style of music to a friend/family member.

Accessible and Fun
A Day Like No Other is a mature work from a thoughtful and expressive artist. Every track on this CD I can recommend without reservation. From the bright and insistent dance track "Say It" that begins this collection to the sweet and charming "A Star Shines" that concludes this rewarding effort, I am hard-pressed to name but one or two favorites among the eight distinctive offerings. Each piece provides its own satisfactions to the listener. Do yourself a favor by acquiring A Day Like No Other. I have no doubts you will be pleased.

Writings by Serge Kozlovsky
This is the music of night megapolisis and superhighways outgoing to the infinity when you leave an illuminated city, crowded with fuss and agitation and rush along a dark band of a motor road to the obscurity, and in the opposite direction, dazzling you with headlights, huge vans rush past. And all of a sudden you begin to feel peace and quiet which are reigning around. And you'd like to stop and to step away from the road to a thick like a milk shroud of mist which covered densely roadside fields. What is hiding behind the silent fields and a blackish thickness of a distant forest? Stones of which castles and ruins of which towns does this land cover, the land which is consigned to oblivion for the time being? But the road is carrying you into the distance and you are ready to drive into another megapolis which will draw you in the whirlpool of its restless lights and dip you into its personal and inherent world full of chaos and a perpetual chain of the matters which brook no delay, and when you become utterly engrossed in them, you may lose track of yourself...Davol's music enables to feel joy, realize that you are alive and free in the overwhelming world of people. Davol's admirers have been looking forward to a new album «A Day Like No Other» for seven long years. And this album does not betray expectations. Davol's music is fresh and melodious, easy and vital. He is in the perpetual motion. And you advance along with him taking away the fetters of stiff dogmas and dictates.«A Day Like No Other» is a real new age, vivid and dynamic. There no other words to be found for description of Davol's music: it is out of style, or that is more likely - of all styles because Davol in his inherent masterly fashion mixes up a great many of styles in one cauldron of universal across-the-board music. More over his new project has a French charm (Joseph Amram's enchanting male vocal in «Of The Valley» composition).A graduated microbiologist and brilliant composer and performer by his soul's will, Davol infuses a fresh spirit into the flow of modern music. His album «A Day Like No Other» is a hymn to a free creative work imbued with love and spirit of experimentation. Listening to Davol's music you realize perfectly that the surrounding world was created with love, for love and is inseparable from it. And it is up to a person to decide how to live in this world...Serge Kozlovsky[...]P.S. Translated by Tatyana L. Permyakova.

A must for those on a quest for good music.
Davol seems to have found the key to making the most tasty ear candy. All the tracks are really nice, and some are memorable, but not in the way you think memorable. The experience of listening to the music is memorable, not necessarily any particular track although some tracks do stick in your head because of the simplicity of the melody. I like that it does not have that "boom boom" beat of so much electronic music out there. Also it's not too "new agey", it's just good music. I have two CD's and have listened to three of them they are all exceptional. If you are on a quest to hear the best music out there Davol is a must, and this CD is a good start.
