tracks on the new album.
Winter 03 @ Rest in God available nationally

track great track to get into what Vivid Prophet does as a producer. Plans
are on for the second album, this is really strong album with loads of
vocal tracks. There is a definite progression from the first album to
the second and the fusion of a lot of new ideas.

in our spiritual growth to have new challenges and God has given me this
in the form of our move to Leeds and a new church".
Jan 03 Thanks to RadioU in Columbus Ohio
for giving Vivid Prophet such splendid airplay and support.
Nov-Dec 02 Great interview with Vivid
Prophet in the recent issue of Cross Rhythms Magazine with a write up
on the "@ Rest in God" Album.
Their write-up said "As more than one dance music aficionado has
observed, there are amazingly few Christian orientated dance albums which
reach beyond the formulaic pop dance sounds so Piers Williamson (The Prophet
in question) is to be congratulated for bringing the hard edged drums
and the phat bass lines of the dance underground to an avowedly Christian
project. I enjoyed the rap on "Listening" while the guest female
singers here add variety to the drum 'n' bass and breakbeat style fusion
of sounds. In many ways a pioneering release." written by Tony Cummings
