David Arkenstone’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
David Arkenstone was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
After moving to California from his hometown of Chicago at age 10, David Arkenstone immersed himself in music. He spent high school and college playing keyboards and guitars in a variety of bands and performance groups, then traveled across the country playing popular music.
When he discovered the lush arrangements and exotic approach of Kitaro, Arkenstone ventured into New Age music and began to worked on developing his own unique sound. The increasing synergy between musical instruments and computer technology also inspired him, and when the two could finally communicate to each other, Arkenstone knew his time had come.
Using computers, he could now hear a great deal of what he could only imagine. The majority of his works are created partly or entirely on his Macintosh computer, along with synthesizers, guitars, and various other instruments.
Blending rock, global, and cinematic elements into his unique New Age sound, Arkenstone has composed many albums, with such standout works as IN THE WAKE OF THE WIND and THE CELTIC BOOK OF DAYS. He has also contributed original music to a handful of films and television documentaries, something appropriate enough seeing as how much of his music often acts a soundtrack anyway, following the events of original stories that are often included in many of his albums.
