    I'm not sure how many people noticed how fitting the title is for this song. It seems perfectly engineered to be exactly a journey in a dream. It has the morning bell, followed by a dark and mysterious, but forward pace. Towards the end, all the elements of the song begin to merge as if coming out of the dream. I don't know if Antoine meant to do this, but it's hard to believe given how perfect it is, that it was done by mistake. Well done, sir. This is musical art.

    Now if every one would pony up some cash and buy his albums. I will be buying his albums and DVDs. Yeah I could just let it go but this musician is better than most bands being produced out of the big music producers. Pay this fantastic musician, who has worked his butt off to get where he is, and more music, skill, and talent will follow. I listened to his UA-cam recordings on a pair of JBL studio 580s and it sounded and felt like he was playing right in front of me - live. I personally would like to hear an uncompressed .WAV file or perhaps a .flac file. Play on.

      The technique is called " rasgueado" . It's used by flamenco players all the time. He is doing a modified version of it for sure , but that's basically where he got it from. He's said in interviews that he's borrowed from flamenco in coming up with some of his techniques.
