"Micheal Whalen provides a great album, and as a bonus, a great music playfield for David Torn. Most enjoyable.
Soothing, serene, a great spacemusic album for you fans of this genre. You know who you are! :-)
I'd venture out on a limb and call this an American version of David Sylvian's instrumental works, provided that doesn't cause an international huff someplace.
Highly recommended.

"I love this CD. I think it is a very interesting mix of new age flavor and old school melody and design. I find it extremely relaxing. Its great for both chilling and thinking but not if you're looking to get pumped up. I gave it only four stars because I felt some of the tracks toward the end of the CD slowed down a bit too much and dragged a bit longer than I wished they would. But this imperfection doesn't take away from the sincereity of emotion the music embodies."

"I have loved these selections for years, hearing them often on the OnDemand New Age music channel on my cable TV. Whalen's sound is very distinctive, and when one of his confections would be played I'd find myself leaving whatever room I was in to go to the TV and see what that lovely song was! Invariably it was Whalen--and it was one of the pieces on this album. I am so glad to have it to play whenever I like. Highly recommended!"
Nightscenes is very good!

"While a few of the tracks were a little jazzy for me, the rest are wonderful! I really have enjoyed this album!"
