Quote | I cant wait for the wind chimes too i hope its a video clip or something... not a track |
"The Wind Chimes" was a video album released years ago. I know it was produced for Japan. I have no idea about other places (please see the FAQ. I hope it is there!. If I am correct, it contains music videos for all of "Islands" (Wind Chimes...ALL of it!, and the vocal tracks too), and some extras like "Shine", "Pictures In The Dark", and "Five Miles Out".
If you have not seen these "Island" videos, generally they include lots of (now) primitive computer graphics and occasional shots of Mike playing guitar, Anita singing, etc. Some are better than others: the tumbling digital wine bottles in "Flying Start" underwhelm me, while I think that everything blends together quite well in "Magic Touch", the best of the "Islands" videos.
The video for "The Time has Come" features a digital castle that looks a LOT like one of those buildings you find in rooms in the "Maestro" game. I'm referring to those little "model" castles, etc that you can slowly zoom into and then get transferred elsewhere.
My first guess is that the "Wind Chimes" on this new DVD would include all of this material. Maybe that is too much to fit.

I know what you mean. I think we are in the middle of a major change in his work, like the one between "Incantations" and "Platinum" that was quite major.
