"I have listened for 25 years to hundreds of ambient, new age, space music, classic electronic a la schulze, and this cd is very special. Stearns has made a tremendously deep work of art."

"If you're into space music this CD should be in your collection. I won't call it great but close enough. At my job I work at a computer and can listen to music while I work. That's where this sounds the best. My favorite is "Within". All the songs on here are a trip. I prefer to listen to homemade tapes at work as opposed to CD's. I have a tape with "Encounter" on one side and "Sea of Glass" by Giles Reaves on the other. They compliment each other well. This is space music with no frills so prepare to hear some far out sounding music. Actually, I think I should rate this CD 4 1/2."

Space Music At Its Best

"Ever gaze into the night sky for hours on end. If you want some music to accompany star gazing this is the perfect album. It is very relaxing like most of Michael Stearns' albums but it has some very dark and light twists to it."
