John Kerr & Ron Boots- Oceans of Emotions

After having met via a club of electronic music friends and sharing ideas John Kerr and Ron Boots decided to make a CD together. In September of 1990 "Offshore Islands" was released. "Offshore Islands" has since been described as a "mile-stone in the history of electronic music". Offshore Islands was re-released in 1998. Oceans of emotions is an awesome piece of music from the offshore islands cd. ( well edited in my all-time favourite top 5 of electronic music ) John Kerr bought his first synthesizer in 1980 and began composing music while still working - full-time - in the advertising world. In 1992 he was confronted with the decision of either continuing his work in the frantic world of advertising or leaving it to concentrate on his music. This was because he was awarded three major music prizes in that same year: &Artist&&Compact Disc&and &Composition&of 1992, in the Electronic Music Awards of the WDR Radio in Germany with his Compact Disc 'Norland'. He chose music..... And like the English say: the rest is history. Ron Boots is one of the most important and successful synthesizer / electronic / ambient musicians in the Netherlands. His music ranges from meditative, relaxation soundscapes to rhythmic, hypnotic music.
