Nice Mix, Still The "Old Patrick O'Hearn".......2005-11-08

Not as good as some of his older albums, but some gems.

Moody, Deep, Twilight Sound.......2002-10-07

I bought "Ancient Dreams" on LP in the early nineties. It was the first time I'd ever heard any of Patrick O'Hearns music. I ended up buying everything of his I could find. I thought "Trust" sounded more like his first two albums. I like everything I've got by Patrick O'Hearn but "Trust" is still my favorite. I think "Two Continents" is one of his best songs. "Lone Man" is a good musical representation of the artifact from Cousquer Cave, a feel of what it was like to be alive in 12000 B.C. and wandering a sparsely populated Earth. The songs "Trust" and "Farewell" are also highlights on this album. Most of these songs have a lonely feeling to them but they are beautiful and not "down" songs. Yes, many of these songs do have repetitive stretches in them, but most all of his music does. Some of the repetition on "Between Two Worlds" can almost drive you crazy if you have headphones on while lying down and fall asleep with your player on repeat. You keep hearing the same thing over and over in a dream. But like "Between Two Worlds", the music on "Trust" is still beautiful and has a dramatic element to it. If you like "Between Two Worlds" I predict you will like "Trust".

your typical ambient new age jazz.......2002-03-01

This is another typical Patrick O'Hearn album of ambient music mixed with new age jazz and a little electronica. O'Hearn plays most of the instruments, but does have some guests on some of the tracks, including his friends from his Frank Zappa days, Warren Cuccurullo and Terry Bozzio.

The music is nice and pleasant, but somewhat repetitive. There are a lot of people who play in this style, including his old band Group 87 and his partner Mark Isham. If you are a big ambient fan (Tangerine Dream or Brian Eno) you might really appreciate this. Mixing in the new age jazz with the ambient sound does give a little spark to the music. But, in the end, it all seems like background music to me. These guys (especially Isham) are very big in movie soundtracks.

If you want something with more energy, check out the Bozzio, Levin, Stevens albums.

I have Trust with this marvelous CD........2001-12-20

I bought this CD on October 20, 1998. It's funny that I can remember the exact dates that I bought CDs. This album is one ambient Journey for the mind and soul. This album has plenty of electronic synthesizers for fans of his earlier material. The music is dark, mysterious, and ambient.

Liberty kicks this CD with a bang with creepy melodies, electronic blips, and his trademark sound. This song is sort of like what would go on his Rivers Gonna Rise CD but this song is much darker than the darkest song off that album. Two Continents is beyond words. It's similar to Liberty but the one thing that makes this song a standout is the intense Turkish drums. Equinox is radiant with it's ambient synthesizers, thundering drums, and mournful melody. Thr title track is one of the best songs O'Hearn has ever recorded. It's a six and a half minute song with very strong ambience, pianos, and echoing drums. Definately a highlight. Synergy is another favorite song of this album. It has strong rhythm that may actually make you bop your head along and there are some blips that go along with the beat. The Lone Man is absolute exquisite. It's a very mournful song with mostly just new age synths that paved the way for the Metaphor album that followed this one. Towards the ending there are creepy dark keyboards that leave this album forever written into my memory. Patrick O'Hearn would sample this song in the title track for his crowning acievement So Flows The Current album. This song is one of Patrick's most creative songs to date. Three Circles is a very space oriented song with very haunting synthesizers, maracas, and strange drums. Farewell is a very misty, very sad song with mostly hounting keyboards, some bells and breeze sound effects to create a very sad masterpiece song that will make you cry. It closes out this very dark masterpiece.

This is a very unique album from my all-time favorite New Age musician. It's a very deep album with lots of emotion that the songs express through their melodies. I strongly recommend that you get this CD. It's a very beautiful album.

More Beauty Found In Trust!!!.......2001-05-31

Once again, I find myself reviewing a disc I've owned & enjoyed for years. I've been an O'Hearn fan since '88 and own ALL of his solo albums. Trust is another tremendous release from one of the greatest visionaries in the industry today. Patrick O'Hearn is held in the highest ranks within the small inner circle of the music "biz". His fans include the likes of Peter Gabriel and Sting to name just a couple (and I think those two guys have pretty good ears). With Trust, O'hearn continues with his tradition of atmospheric recordings that challenge, provoke and stimulate. PO is not for the average consumer of shiny, plastic mass production materials. O'Hearn is for those who don't just think outside the box but live outside the box. His work employs simple themes developed into melodies and crescendos that are sure to inspire. His masterful utilization of synthesizers, clay pots, drums, guitars and of course his forte' the bass (among other things)create magnificent soundscapes that bring you on wonderous journeys. O'Hearn is not the kind of artist you put in the tray once and determine whether or not you like the disc. O'Hearn's work demands the time of repeated play. Patrick's work requires at least half a dozen listen's before the unfamiliar can begin to become comfortable. I recommend the first three times through you use it as background noise prior to really sitting down and sinking your ears into it and never less than 6 listens before you venture into the world of headphones. PO's music offers a lot to digest and can be overwhelming if you try to listen to it all right away. Just listen to the basic tracks vaguely and gradually get closer to the source as your familiarity increases. Trust is no exception. It is truly a great piece of work, emotive and full of powerful images. Songs that are introduced in a simple fashion, simple themes that develop character, layers and texture over the life of the song. Meter marking percussion woven in frettless bass, textural guitars and synthesised keys. Rhythms that start off walking and work to a gallop, these are the signatures of O'Hearn compositions. In Trust, I recall only 2 tracks that are not up to par. Trust is yet another Gem in Patrick O'Hearn's library.
