5.0 out of 5 stars Immerse Yourself As You Step "Into Light", December 28, 1999

This review is from: Into Light (Audio CD)

The discovery of Stephanie Sante and her music on Into Light, the debut release, is one of the most radiant gems I have had the pleasure to find. The remarkable detail and clarity of instrumental voicings utilized in the wondrous depths of the intricate, yet deftly woven, layers of the finely crafted soundscapes one travels through are nothing short of astonishing. The spell of an artists insight into the introspective celebration of mother earth and the radiance of the light of life awaits those who take the journey Stephanie proffers. I take particular delight in the production qualities employed within each track. Each one a lush soundscape packed, but not to fully, with gentle guideposts that allow a listener to actual be transported to another place of existence. Also the fact that much of the work is performed on a PRS midi guitar allowing her initial musical influences to be presented from a guitarists perspective. I particularly enjoy the deep Ambient influences of traditional UK synth washes and sequencers that permeate the layers with floating, ethereal elements and undulating rivers that ebb and flow allowing my aural senses and perception to wander through the marvelously drifting soundscapes. Each listening session with Into Light takes me someplace new and treats my ears to effects, melodies and themes that I had not heard the time before. Stephanie Sante is a most welcome, fresh, new voice for the Instrumental Ambient world of music. And one who moves to the top of the Artists to Watch list. Into Light is a highly recommended journey with which to begin life in the new millennnium. Immerse Yourself and Step "Into Light".

5.0 out of 5 stars Sante's brings ambient electronic sound "Into Light", January 21, 2000

A key to the success of "Into Light" is the layering of the compositions. In "Anasazi," a slow, steady heartbeat lurks behind the melody, giving the impression somehow that the earth itself is alive and waiting, watching for something. Meanwhile "Emergence" lives up to its name, as tiny, clear bubbles of light seem to rise from the depths of a dark, swirling base.

"Into Light" goes beyond simple sound effects and music and bursts into the world of sonic storytelling. Sante' carefully chooses each tone, melody and harmony to further the impression of growth and movement. As you listen to this CD, you immerse yourself in the unfathomable mind of a living creature.
