Ep. 8: Dominance & Control (1 of 3)

In the first installment of this series, Andrew Reed dives deep into the heart of his concept album Dominance & Control — an EPIC, philosophical rock story that explores the human desire for power, and control, as well as risk. Blending mythology, sci-fi, and rock and roll, Andrew introduces the album through the first three songs of the record: “Pulsar,” “Crossing the Rubicon,” and “Thunder in My Soul.”Chapter Markers(00:00) – Intro(01:02) – A New Trilogy: The Origins of Dominance & Control(02:10) – Power, Decline, and the Cycle of Life(04:05) – Making a Concept Album in a Burned-Down Studio(05:26) – First Takes and Raw Energy: Capturing Pulsar(07:25) – History, Sci-Fi, and the Sonic Scale of Rock(08:13) – Track 1: Pulsar — The Power of Vibration(17:55) – Track 2: Crossing the Rubicon — Risk, Vision, and Zen(26:29) – Track 3: Thunder in My Soul — After the Victory Song: Twisted World - andrew reed & the liberationAlbum: As a Bird of the Air… (Trilogy I Album 1)Song: Pulsar (I Came, I Saw, I Conquered) - andrew reed & the liberationAlbum: Dominance & Control (Trilogy I Album 2)Song: Crossing the Rubicon - andrew reed & the liberationAlbum: Dominance & Control (Trilogy I Album 2)Song: Thunder in My Soul - andrew reed & the liberationAlbum: Dominance & Control (Trilogy I Album 2)Distributed by Universal/Virgin Music GroupsSocial Media Linkswww.mvi.lifeOfficial Website: www.AndrewReedMusic.comFacebook: @andrewreedandtheliberation X: @AndrewReedMusic Instagram: @AndrewReedMusic Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2Lx7DnbB5qyt7uwV8yeHwEYoutube Channel: @andrewreedtheliberationMVI Phone #: (828) 698-5885Click here to view the episode transcript.
