Arcanta, Book of Mirrors

We here at Art Deco blog not only have great taste in art, we demand the very best in music as well. So we were thrilled with our buddy Thom Ayres (a.k.a. Thombeau of the fabulous Fabulon blog, a.k.a. musician Arcanta) album Book of Mirrors. To us it sounds like ambient, world and 80s music, all rolled into one. It's seriously beautiful, and we highly recommend it! You can visit Arcanta's myspace site right here.
