James Asher - Creative Journal '2024

Tracks list

London-based composer, producer and musician James Asher has experienced a long
and varied musical career, and in recent years has enjoyed great success the
with his percussion-based “Feet in the Soil” series. He was
initially trained as a sound engineer, and his keen ear and expertise for audio
engineering can be heard in his stimulating recordings. But Asher ultimately
went the route of performer. His first single was produced by The Who’s
Pete Townshend in 1979, and Asher later returned the favor by playing percussion
on Townshed’s Empty Glass album. Asher also composed over 23 albums of
library music in the ’80s before releasing his first commercial album
“The Great Wheel” in 1990, which lingered on the New Age Billboard
chart for two years and reached as high as the No. 13 spot. His next project was
“Globalarium“, which featured world artists Hossam Ramzy and Joji
Hirota and opened the door to his now famous “worldbeat” style. Note
