5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ART, September 3, 2001

This review is from: Beyond the Mind's Eye (Audio CD)

I used to work for a video store that used to play the video "Beyond The Mind's Eye" all the time (and I mean all the time). I thought the animation was beautiful but what brought out all that beauty was the music.
The music just sends you away to the world "Beyond The Mind's Eye." I have never heard of Jan Hammer before this, but now I am a fan.
The music alone is just as, if not more so, fantastic as the animation. Not to mention it is the most relaxing and energizing cd I own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Right up there with the best!, April 28, 2002

This review is from: Beyond the Mind's Eye (Audio CD)

The music in this sountrack is a swirl of everything that will not dissapoint you. I don't think one can safely categorize it into a genre since everyone (and I mean everyone here) that I've played it for loves it. The music is actually all sinthesized, yet it carries very little (if any at all) of the average techno style or other CG music.

It's great backround music to relax and lets the listener become enveloped in its melodies and flows. If you liked the movie, you'll love this even more since it encorporates even more of the song than was given in the movie (the credits music for example). This is a music purchase you won't regret.

This soundtrack, while based on the movie Beyond the Mind's eye, includes more than was given in the movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just like the movie!, September 6, 2001

This review is from: Beyond the Mind's Eye (Audio CD)

In my case, this cd is a hit because the Mind's Eye video was a hit first.

All the tracks stand pretty much on their own though. If you are into the late-80's techno-type music, this is it. And of course, if you have seen the video, you already know the tracks and are taken back there right away.

Good stuff.
