The Ted Mountainé 2025 Challenge
Ted Mountainé starts off the new year with a brand new project: The plan is to publish a piece of music every day of the year, at least until general fatigue sets in. For a time traveller this makes absolutely no sense at all, but that’s what Ted Mountainé is all about!
We start off with a mood piece in a style reminiscent of the intro to Vangelis’ The City, or, indeed, Blade Runner – a trick Ted often reverts to when he needs an “ouverture” to capture the feel of a new project. It’s probably a bit more romantic and optimistic in tone than Vangelis’ more dystopian sounds in these examples. And it might be too optimistic considering that the year we are now entering, 2025, could be a turbulent ride. But let’s hope Ted proves us wrong.
