Richard Theisen's Shambhala, with its vibrant cover art depicting a meditating figure and chakras, sets the stage for a profound spiritual journey. The angelic vision in the foreground prepares you for the introspective and contemplative experience that awaits in this auditory voyage.
In October of 2023 my wife Gina found a story I had written a few years back, tucked away in some box in our storage unit. After she read it she said this would be a good premise for your next album. Over the next five months my newest release "Oceanova" was realized.
The story is based on an actual Greek myth which I expanded on and it became a new age love story fairy tale. I hope you enjoy this music as much as I had composing it. Richard
Oceanova is a tale of a young man who, with angelic help, overcomes harsh challenges and finds hope for a brighter future. It’s also a story told not with words but with amazing music, a rarefeat only a gifted composer like Richard Theisen can bring to fruition. Weaving a brilliant tapestry of memorable melodies and flowing soundscapes, he takes the listener on a unique emotional journey. This collection of instrumental gems is a special one that deserves to be set on “repeat.” It’s an impressive debut, indeed.
The album overflows delightfully with rich shades and hues of Norse mythology. Here, throughout, lush landscapes for the mind to roam in, ancient mythology, and the mystical abound. From flowing rivers to deep, luxurious forests, the listener is invited to slow down, take some deep breaths, and immerse themselves in the the love and beauty that surrounds us all no matter where we are.
