via Kickstarter:<\/a><\/p>\n

Electronic Opus is a unique and immersive Electronic Symphonic album project featuring the most popular songs from the award winning, world renowned, multiple platinum artist, film composer and technologist BT. \u00a0BT is considered one of the people who transformed modern music forever and is widely acknowledged as the godfather of trance.<\/em><\/p>\n

Start with the power and excitement of electronic dance music (EDM), blend in the emotional and classical tones of a symphony orchestra, and the result is Electronic Opus, a first-of-its-kind, high-energy album and live concert experience arriving in March 2015. <\/em><\/p>\n

Produced by BT and the award-winning composer and Video Games Live creator Tommy Tallarico, Electronic Opus features BT\u2019s signature EDM hits re-imagined, re-arranged and remixed with a full orchestra.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I have very little to say other than I am a backer and this is the comment I left in the comments section.<\/p>\n

I’m in. <\/em><\/p>\n

Brian, your music has literally changed my life ever since I first heard Flaming June around 2001.The short times we’ve had face to face chats before your shows have been some of the most intelligent and thought-provoking chats I’ve ever had and I have to decompress and let it all soak in for days later.<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m in for $1,000. I’d give more if I could afford to but I hope my contribution has as much of an impact as your work has had on me for the last 13 years.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
