This review is from: Ambienism Volume One (Audio CD)

Awesome album provides a variety of styles and moods, all with a great electronic atmosphere. This has become one of my favorite CDs. It goes with most any activity and is great for just listening and enjoying it, too.

I happen to really like the artwork. It's mystical, but not remote way. It's inviting and gives personality to the album.

I highly recommend this album. Rev up with the opening songs, then sit back and relax. The last track by Cyberchump is a sort of lullaby to complete the journey.

This review is from: Ambienism Volume One (Audio CD)

I took a chance on this album and I have to say it payed off.

Cheesy Poser artwork notwithstanding, this is a quality compilation of ambient artists from across the US. I found that this album flows pretty well for a collection of songs not intended to go together, but is not quite as smooth as an album createded as a whole. You still get a nice ambient effect and the sonic landscapes are interesting ones indeed. I had not heard of most of these artists, but after listening I intend to pick a few of them up. Co-workers have asked what I was listening to, saying they thought it sounded great.

This is a good sampler of ambient music and should not be expected to be more. Give it a try, I did and was well rewarded. Listen to it at home watching the rain splatter on your windows with a cup of steaming oolong tea.
