I listen to this CD a lot, especially at night, but also sometimes at early dawn. Very inspiring, extremely meditative, way ahead of its time. A true metaphysical masterpiece that will always remain a 20th century classic (see also my review of Atem).

This album may not be considered Tangerine Dream's best work, but for fans of ambient music, this is certainly an early masterpiece. Unlike a lot of electronic music (including their later work) this album has a very appealing organic quality. The pieces sound grown, rather than arranged or orchestrated. If you are a fan of such works as Brian Eno's Descreet Music or Music for Films, this album will fit nicely between those two in your cd changer.

I really do like Tangerine Dream, but not this album. It's too long and too similar. While Underwater Sunlight is one of my all-time favourite records, this is monotonous.

The only album i can listen and inspire me to think

I have never heard a CD that comes anywhere near this CD for boring! It's like every song is one 20 minute long note and every song even uses the same note. They just hit a key on the synth and let the recorder go. Someone occasionally adjusts a phase shifter or sequencer. This is a CD that no one will ever be able to top for boring. A feat that will not be surpassed for all of eternity!!
