This is a passion project I've been working on and off on for a number of years. In fact, I almost never finished it. It is based on a series of incredibly uncanny dreams I read about in the book "Man and His Symbols" by Carl Jung many, many years ago. They were the dreams of the daughter of one of his patients; an eight year old girl who recorded these dreams and presented them to her father, who in turn, presented them to Jung. He believed the dreams porteneded to impending tragedy and sadly, he was right as the girl passed away two years later. For some reason, the dreams struck a weird chord with me and I felt compelled to make some tunes inspired by them. Accompanying these tunes (and part of the reason why this took so long), are a series of childlike drawings that captured the surreal and often dark imagery of those dreams. With this, I set out to make music as uncanny as the dreams themselves. You can listen to the music with the accompanying images here, but if you enjoy this, please consider visiting my Bandcamp page below and purchasing the album: astr0boy.bandcamp.com/album/once-upon-a-time
