Summary: Impressive
Comment: I am not a specialist of ambient and space music by any means, but I have listened to quite a few pieces and programs such as Heart of Space. This collection is amazing in my view. Never have I listened to a CD so regularly as this one. Life is stressful at times for me like for everybody else (family loss, stress from self-employment, etc). I keep on playing this CD over and over, the whole thing, and the magic is there every time. I am going to research further the works of those wonderfully inspired artists. I would venture to say that this can be close to a life transforming CD, it has been for me in fact. It tells us that we should reflect and focus on the moment, on what is truly important, and that we should keep in mind that there are light years behind us and before us. My deepest thanks to these artists.

Summary: Supremely Enjoyable
Comment: I have a deep love for ambient music and the Spotted Peccary label has many masters of the genre. This particular CD is my current favorite. The music immerses you in alpha-theta tonalities keeping your heart chakra open and your mind at ease.

Summary: Superlative ambient compilation
Comment: This compilation of the more sedate and ambient works from some of the artists on the Spotted Peccary label is a great collection and serves as a fine introduction to the "new" direction in which the label is headed. Many of the cuts are halfway between drifting serene "warm" ambient and darker soundscapes. But nothing here is the least bit disturbing or disonnant. Flowing synth washes, subtle percussive elements, warm undertones and drones, and spacy electronics all combine seamlessly, cut to cut, to produce an compilation that plays through superbly. It's almost as if this is the work of one artist in that the emotional and musical tone is sustained throughout the CD.If you've never explored this label, and you enjoy floating ambient or spacemusic, you can't go wrong picking this up. It's a very solid album.
