Sleep Station Announces February Release
12/25/2007
From: Solid PR
Sleep Station is the alter ego of David Debiak, a man who is notorious for writing some of the
most groundbreaking concept albums of our generation. Over the past seven years he's
released albums about a robotics engineer falling in love with a robot he created, two
astronauts being abandoned by ground control and left to die in outer space, the love story
of Dr. Carl Von Cosel (a famous necrophiliac who fell in love with his deceased patient, Elena
Hoyos), and a first person drama taking place in World War II. Also the creative force behind
New London Fire's epic I Sing The Body Holographic in 2006, Debiak has now
turned his focus back on Sleep Station with The Pride of Chester
James.
The recording, mixing and mastering process of this new record was scattered over the
course of three years amidst tours, mental breakdowns and all of the other wonderful
obstacles life has to offer. In a finished basement that stylistically hadn't changed since
1975, Debiak and company brought The Pride of Chester James to life with the
help of a borrowed vintage tape machine, Hammond organs, pianos, Rhodes, Wurlitzers and
some old guitars and amps.
Noted Debiak, "The record has weighed heavily on me for quite sometime. I often felt myself
reflecting on it, whether it be in a small hotel room in Paris or in my sleep. Writing the songs
was the easy part, they came naturally, living and reliving them was far more difficult but
some say that the joy is in the journey."
