Milano, ITALY February 15, 2005 -- Multi-platinum artist Sananda Maitreya finishes recording the last songs for his album "Angels & Vampires - Volume I”. After having announced "Angels & Vampires" as his next project in 2001, since May 2004 gradually the songs have been released on the www.sanandamaitreya.com website as soon as they were recorded . The album holds four Chapters and the most recent one is Chapter 4: "The Return of the Missing Lincolns":

* If All I've Got
* Right Brain Says
* The Kind Of Girl
* I'm Your Daddy
* Reach Out

Plus 2 instrumental songs will be offered as FREE downloads the coming week.

Maitreya about the project: "Angels & Vampires relies quite heavily for its musical support from the four basic food groups of live music: real drums, bass, guitar and keyboards and went with a more intimate and organic sound in order to reintroduce sonic subtones back into the bodies energy matrix long weakened by compressed digital overload and its over emphasis. Sonic subtones help to bolster the bodies electromagnetics and sense of overall wellbeing. Angels & Vampires also sought to create a sound base which would provide more emotional space in which the songs might breathe and feel less constricted."

All songs are written, arranged, produced and performed by Sananda Maitreya.

"Angels & Vampires - Volume 1” is SANANDA’s 6th project after the release of:
2002/2003 "WildCard -The Jokers' Edition"
1995 "Vibrator"
1993 "Symphony Or Damn"
1989 "Neither Fish Nor Flesh"
1987 "Introducing The Hardline According To .."
