A nearly unknown gallery of stunning beauty!.......2006-03-04

Perhaps it stems from me being a hardcore New Age music fanatic but this 2-CD compilation of Steve Roach's works during his first 15 years is a stunningly beautiful collections of his works during this time.

Disc One is the more 'active' part of this collection with more energetic songs with a defined rhythm ranging from 1982's "Ritual Continues" and "Comeback" to 1997's dark heavenly "Ancestral Horizon". Even the first two sound FAR ahead of their time.

The second disc is the calmer, more atmospheric half that focuses on the more purely atmospheric works of his. This is full of stunningly beautiful music depending on the kind of New Age you enjoy. "Magnificent Gallery" and "Something In Tears" having a very eerie haunting ambience that reminds me of the memories of looking at the orange thunderstorm clouds as the storms moved out into the east while still illuminated. "The Memory" almost brought tears to my eyes in it's mournful beauty and remoteness.

Space Music fans will love this collection. Steve Roach has since done untold many albums since this release but for those who are eager to try out his music for the first time, "Dreaming Now and Then" is the perfect start. After that, get "Magnificent Void".

Moody sounds.......2000-06-21

That's a very good compilation of Steve Roach and his (sometimes previously unreleased) music, which is very moody and leaves much room for your imagination. If someone can bring the width of space to your mind then it is Steve Roach. His music is mainly on synthesizer.

Nice ethereal music.......2000-06-14

The music is nice , though not what I expected. Perhaps it's because not all my favorite recordings were represented. On the whole a label worth having for the first time listener
