I really like this CD and keep it in my car to listen to when I need to calm down.

It's a neat outer spacey sound that they used to play in the Omnimax at the St. Louis Science Center before the feature started.

This album is definitely my favorite of Geodesium's. The music was made specifically for planetariums. The smooth electronic sounds can transport you through space. Each song is a new journey. I've updated to a digital version now, but this is one of the few cassettes I've kept throughout the years. Fourth Universe will remain a favorite of mine for all time.

This CD can carry you away to the outer limits! It's very soothing, and can relax me when I've come home from a hard day's work.

Ranging from dynamic, rhythmic pieces to ethereal, beautifully floating music, Fourth Universe portrays magnificent visions of the universe.

The song titles are often clues to the tempo. The opener, "Sailing To Neptune" is a cruiser which rides the waves of the galaxies, while "Deep Blue" floats slowly as it spirals deeper, and "Rhapsody on a Red Planet" uses classical motifs to envision the desolate planet-scapes of Mars. Flights of fantasy move through deep space, romantic and ethereal at times, upbeat and rhythmic at others. The Geodesium sound is full of clarity, expressing its own view of space and all the sounds generated from these deep expanses. Eighteen tracks altogether make up this nearly hour-long release, marked by an ability to portray magnificent, memorable visions of the universe through its varied approaches to the space music genre.
