5 out of 5 stars Soothing Sonics Scenes.......2001-03-30

I love ambient, minimalist music and the "songs" here are just that. Simple, soothing, sonic scenes are somewhere along the lines of early Brain Eno and/or just about any modern, pensive film score. These pieces could be used well in film, but are equally as enjoyable for background listening and/or serious relaxation music. This is definitely not modern dance "electronica". There are no annoying drum machines or obvious synthesizers. The music is ethereal, beautiful and unique.
