The album was inspired by ten classic works by the great master of words, Ray Bradbury – phenomenal human insight, poetry, and wisdom that took the shape of realist, not just fantasy and science fiction, stories. A master of writing, who often used sci-fi and fantasy settings to tell us something deeply human about ordinary people like us.
« Using synthesizers and technology as its tools of expression, ‘The Ray Bradbury Chronicles’ is quite classical in its approach with assigned sounds representing its characters. Featuring 10 compositions inspired by 10 Ray Bradbury works, ‘The Ray Bradbury Chronicles’ indulges in some deep musical storytelling in the vein of Vangelis in particular. […] if you enjoy cerebral instrumental concept albums lingering in darkness, then ‘The Ray Bradbury Chronicles’ is worthy of investigation. » (The Electricity Club, 3 February 2025).
Levente was born in Transylvania, as a member of the Hungarian ethnic minority – the main escapism during the communist dictatorship was listening to electronic music.
He built his first analogue synth as a teenager living under the Ceausescu regime. Music creation has really begun later on in his home studio, which was established after his relocation to the UK during the 1990s.
The CDs released by the former PeopleSound and Vitaminic indie labels were noted for the compositional versatility, which created well-received blends of medieval, ethnic, and space/ambient elements.
Later on, after Amazon CD manufacturing services closed, everything has gone purely digital, via RouteNote releasing onto all major streaming platforms.
One composition from his debut album was also featured on the compilation CD entitled “Noua Romanie – Rebirth of a Nation”, which was a special project released by Earthtone / Sonic Images Records founded by the legendary Christopher Franke (ex-Tangerine Dream).
Albums and compositions have been included in several Ambient Online curated compilations and in United World Underground anthologies.
