Tres Lunas

When translated from the Spanish language to English, the album name Tres Lunas is Three Moons.

Oldfield stated that the title was inspired by an Italian restaurant in Ibiza (where he was living at the time) called Las Dos Lunas, which uses two mirrored C-shaped moons as a logo - as well as by the fact that the Tres Lunas game, which he created simultaneously with the music, features three moons within its landscape.

British-Asian vocalist called Amar, who first appeared on Tubular Bells III, also contributes vocals to the album.

[4] Tres Lunas was the vehicle for Oldfield's first publicly released MusicVR game.

Some of the music from the Tres Lunas game eventually ended up on Oldfield's Light + Shade album.

Both software packages were written by Colin Dooley with Newlook being created specifically for the Music VR project.

In the game you can fly around the world, collecting a maximum of 7 gold rings, which change the music which you hear.
