After many recordings for other artists and composing a few symphonies, Morris released this solo record in 2001, inspired by his love of astronomy, in which he plays all the instruments including percussion, electronics and keyboards. The work as a whole attempts to convey the overall serenity of the starlit night sky. Much of Morris Pert's music is inspired by the symbolism and the mystery surrounding the culture of the ancient inhabitants of Scotland known as the Picts. He worked for 18 years as a session musician (percussionist) in the major London recording studios, having recorded with Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins and Brand X.
