5 out of 5 stars Masterful!.......2007-02-20

Simply one of the best space/newage/ambient works ever pressed, Steve Roach's expanded score lends itself to the ultimate relaxation or chill-party CD. It's an arresting work - the man works miracles with electronics and sheets of sounds. Along with the same decade's "Chronos" by Michael Stearns, and Don Slepian's psycoactive, hypnotic, let's-get-back-to-Nirvana masterpiece, "Sea of Bliss," Roach's two CD epic will take you places few musics can. THIS IS GREAT!

5 out of 5 stars Voices from the unknown speak to us...............2007-01-27

Words cannot do this work of art any justice with this review. Spanning two-CDs, Steve Roaches 1988 magnum-opus "Dreamtime Returns" is arguably my favorite release of his to date even though I've since gotten other albums by him as well.

I first heard this album when browsing through a local public library already having his "Dreaming Now Then" compilation. I felt it would be great to try this one out but I never expected it to be this wonderful. Though I can argue about some other songs from his previous and subsequent releases, there is a transcendance that is found on "Dreamtime Returns" that I don't think is as strong on his other albums. DR had me entranced the moment I first started playing it.

"Songline" is almost pure Aboriginal paradise with mostly traditional drums and a spine-tingling didjeridou, a strong contrast to the rest of the album. "Circular Ceremony" is so beautiful that it worked up a tear or two in my eyes. The song has a haunting, minor note melody combined with rain sticks to give a sense of stillness near an approaching thunderstorm.
