Daniel Davis has released a new album, at the end of it all, as a free download.
An early reviewer calls it “one of 2009’s most beautiful albums,” but it’s also mysterious and haunting…. and a lot of other things.
“Initially, this album was supposed to be an atmospheric celebration of spring and summer, something warm, something happy,” explains Davis. “However, that didn’t quite pan out.”
“As I began to compose and then finalize these compositions, I noticed that the album was taking on a darker tone. What I ended up with was an album that seemed to contemplate death, although I don’t think the album is overly depressing. It is somber, but there is still a hint of hope and happiness in a number of songs.”
at the end of it all has blissful sounds and harmonies, but it also has some of the ominous thuds and strange groans of Eno’s On Land.

Thanks. I'm glad people seem to be liking this album. It's funny, because I was (and still am) so unsure of this one. It's such an odd album to me. I'm still not sure exactly what I think of it. Sometimes I really like it, and sometimes I don't. I've never recorded an album like this before. If done things I like, and things that I love, but I've never done something that I'm unsure of.
But anyhow, thanks for the post – I appreciate it.
And thanks to everyone for taking the time to listen. It means a lot to me. You all are the reason why I make the music.
