Are you ready for something totally different? D.M. Cook's Terra Incognita is unlike any album you've heard before. With a high-tech fusion of electronica, rock, world music and contemporary dance styles, the sound of Digital Tides is familiarm yet eerily unique... Surreal pianolines, kicked-up drums and soft pads accentuate the lush instrumentation, proof that electronica doesn't all have to sound the same! This is truly memorable music, without the incessant drum machines and ever-present synths that are so typical of most techno/electronic styles, yet still providing enjoyable, dance-like beats . From the dark and mysterious title track, "Terra Incognita", to the roar and whine of heavy metal fury, "Phoenix Rising"; from the quiet, contemplative "Reflection" and the disturbingly surreal "MindDance" and "Sadness" to the electronic dance-roar of "Worlds Within", Terra Incognita has something for everyone. The following five songs (you'll need RealPlayer to hear them) are just a sample of what is on the album--eleven more await you if you buy the CD! Finally, electronica truly worth listening to!

Transcend all boundaries and cross the world a million times over. This song will have you groovin' till dawn. By the way, the ending (and the blip of static after it) is INTENTIONAL. Your computer is NOT broken. :) | MP3.com CD: Terra Incognita: Lands Unknown - buy it!

Poignant and moving in its simplicity, this short piano solo is probably the most powerful on the album. The solemn chord progression somehow works well with the upbeat, hopeful melody--there's a reason this song used to be titled "Emotional". It will leave you with a peaceful, satisfied feeling, but the ending is quite unexpected... | MP3.com CD: Terra Incognita: Lands Unknown - buy it!

Feel the rush of traffic on immense urban roadways. Keep the beat moving from jazz-style piano to electronic rage, interrupted by bursts of staccato drumloops. This is THE city. | MP3.com CD: Terra Incognita: Lands Unknown - buy it!
