Magnificent

"I love this CD! Kevin Wood's music is joyful, peaceful, spiritual, and gorgeous. A mix of many influences including piano-based new age, Native American chant, religious hymn and classical, Scenic Listening is one of those rare works one can listen to over and over again without ever growing tired of it.

"It has such beautiful music. I first heard "Tribal Hymn" on XM satellite radio and then I bought this CD. I'm a huge, huge fan of Enigma's music and this is very similar to their music. This CD is mostly instrumental with just a few lyrics here and there, just like Enigma's music, and it's just so uplifting to listen to."
Awesome Instrumental!!!

"I have been addicted to this CD for months. I heard one of the songs on the NEW AGE satellite channel and thought I'd give the CD a chance. The entire CD is awesome. The music reminds me of Enigma, Deep Forest, and Medicine Woman (except no fruity bird sounds). Sure enough, as I checked out some stuff about Kevin Wood, it said his influences were: Enya, Patrick O'Hearn, Deep Forest, Sacred Spirit, Enigma, and George Winston. If you like the sounds of those musicians, you'll love this CD. The piano pieces are exceptional and every song has a good rhythm/beat. If you take a chance, ENJOY!"
Inspirational, Spiritual

"Visionary in its approach, this disc explores new territory - creating picturesque journeys using instruments and melodies (not nature sounds). A true artist, Wood paints images with pure talent and inspiration.Each song has its own unique sound - creating a different mood or 'Scene', yet every song is a soothing and pleasant experience, tied together with a common set of instrumentation, such as piano, flutes, vocal textures and synthesizers.Particluarly attractive is the music's organic feel - not overproduced. And after several listens, a spiritual element emerges. As samplers and compilation Cds are more popular than ever, this disc should soon be a hit in the New Age market, as it is already with my friends."
