"This CD is an audiophile collection of alternate versions and alternate mixes from Mark's existing catalog. It is a limited-edition CDR. Only 500 have been burned; each is numbered and personally signed by Mark.



Ethereal synthwork & mainly MIDI-guitar driven tunes is the order of the day when you pop this baby into your CD player. All these alternate versions are, in my opionion, much better than the Original songs from his previous outputs. The sound is fresher, and all tunes has more melody to them and it feels like Mark was at his peak when recording this CD.



The songs takes you on a ride through an emotional state of being, both guitar wise and electronic/synth wise, since there is some very..very good melody and emotion put to all the tracks. Many of the songs sounds similar to his other CD called 'Archives' and expands on the same trademark sound used on that one, which is a good thing!



I just can't get enough of this CD (especially the mesmerizing track 'Geoglyphs'), this is definetely something for those who want something more than just plain electronic music. I liked it alot partly becasue it contains some really nice MIDI-guitar sound in it (and the fact that I like progressive rock), so if this is for you then you won't find anything better on the market.



Dont hesitate. Pick this gem up, listen to it and observe it, casue after that you're going to love it...and be stuck with it!
