Editorial Reviews
Frans DeWaard, Vital E-Zine
A nice record for a lazy sunday afternoon.

Phil Derby, Electroambient Space
An interesting panorama of silky soft textures, this is easily the most accessible I’ve heard him sound.

Album Description
This beautiful new work represents a change both from his earlier nocturnal ambience, and his later jazz-tinged and rock-influenced, more structured music, though it is closer to the former. Classic Greinke recordings like CITIES IN FOG, IN ANOTHER PLACE and LOST TERRAIN were characterized by a murky, almost subterranean depth and solidity. WIDE VIEW, as one might take from the title, is more open and direct without being in any way "light." Call it a more open and musical ambience. Comparisons with Harold Budd might still be made to WIDE VIEW, for its gentleness, restraint and poetic mode of expression, though the instrumentation is wider than just piano. This is a most noteworthy recording, a welcome return to the genre for one of its truly vital artists. It is certain to change what people think Greinke is capable of, and will doubtless give new ambient music fans an introduction to one of the great names who has been inactive for a while.

    5 out of 5 stars A Pleasure to Listen to From Beginning to End.......2005-07-08

    Refreshing, relaxing music to work by, use for a dinner party, or to unwind with at the end of the day. I often listen to it while working in my art studio and enjoy the variety and rhythm of every song on the CD. I look forward to hearing more from this talented musician.
