"OK, I listen primarily to baroque music--frankly, I am neither familiar with the definition of "new age" nor aware of the category in which Mr. Badarou's music has been placed. However, I can say that the music bears strong similarities to Paul Simon's Graceland. I purchased this disc after hearing track two on a radio program and--to pay Mr. Badarou the ultimate compliment--the music has never grown old. For almost ten years this has been our family's "road trip" album. The album is entirely synthesized music but the sound sampling is very diverse--from voices (used only as notes--no words) to wind, storms and other natural sounds. The tracks are independently named but are interrelated and share common themes, rather like a pop-symphony of sorts. Absolutely worth trying to find a copy."

Exquisite !

"I'm sorry this album is out of stock..it has some of the most gorgeous new age music ever recorded,I think.It was really my first new age CD,and I didn't know what to make of this kind of stuff...but I fell madly in love with this most beautiful music.Mr. Badarou needs to keep making more for us."
