Stephen has earned a special place in electronic music. He started with only a computer and the Reason software but later on he became a collector of synthesizers, new and old, and now has developed kind of a name in the retro/Berlin School area of electronic music. The nice thing about Stephen and his music is that it is growing with every album. Especially his sequences (not an unimportant element of retro-electronic music) are becoming better and better and have a special place on “Lost On An Island Of Adventure”.
The opening track “Just Above The Surface” has traces of mid-seventies Klaus Schulze.
An eerie piece like “Run For Cover” captures the atmosphere of the TV-series Lost excellently. The best sequence on the album can be heard on the outstanding track “Paradise”. “Lost On An Island Of Adventure” has become Create’s best album until this moment.
The last piece of music, “Heaven Waits (For Grandad)” is dedicated to Stephen’s grandad who sadly passed away in November 2007. Stephen manages to come with a fitting honor. It means that music can say a lot and Stephen does that.
