Yet Another New Direction, October 22, 2008
This review is from: Myst V: End of Ages (Original Score) (Audio CD)
In my never ending quest for good music, every so often I come across something that I consider a gem, which to me is a collection of music that is beautiful, inspiring, innovative, re playable, and above all things, enjoyable. The Myst franchise has been consistantly giving me gems for the last few years that i've been turned onto the music, and Myst V: End Of Ages is no disappointment. Tim Larkin is clearly not afraid to push boundaries and take the music of the game to places you wouldn't expect it to go, which makes the soundtrack stand alone rather easily. I say this not having played the game, or any of the Myst games but the first. The sounds used take you to various regions of the world, most of which come from middle eastern influence and instruments. The bottom line is that I love this album. Its beautiful, its cool new sound, and easily contends for my favorite spot out of the Myst soundtracks thus far. 4/5 stars.

Excellent, May 20, 2007
This review is from: Myst V: End of Ages (Original Score) (Audio CD)
I rated this a 5 as it's an excellent cd, although not quite my cup of tea. But the music is very interesting, and the quality of the cd is excellent. I only wish that they had packaged it in a jewel case though so that it would fit in my cd drawer with all my other cd's.
