5.0 out of 5 stars Roach at his quietest, September 27, 2001

The title is apt. While some of his other ambient work can be a little unsettling (e.g. "The Magnificent Void", to say nothing of his work featuring Austrailian aboriginal percussion -- ugh), this one is pure tranquility. If you let it in, it will have you floating on air.

(I make a point of taking this CD with me whenever I go to see my massage therapist -- it makes excellent background music for a good rubdown, and then listening to it later brings back a little of that ultra-relaxed feeling one gets with a good massage...)

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest space music albums ever recorded..., June 16, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Quiet Music (Audio CD)

If you are someone who loves ambient music, the kind of drifting synth washes and layers that flow into your subconscious softly while reading, writing, watching a sunset with your headphones on, this is the CD for you. Although Roach in the past 5 years or so has strayed from his original space music origins, you can re-live one of his best works (along with Structures From Silence) with these uplifting and relaxing pieces. This is deep space at its best...

5.0 out of 5 stars A Knockout!, April 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Quiet Music (Audio CD)

Can't sleep? Before you go to bed, set your stereo to sleep mode and play this disc at low volume. I guarantee you won't be awake to hear the whole disc! My favorite is A Few More Moments, however the rest of the disc is excellent. Unfortunately I do not remember much of Air and Light or Dreaming and Sleep, the last two tracks, since the songs are so mellow that I am conked out by the time these play!

If you like light, airy music, this is the disc for you!
