Phenomenal production, just gorgeous music.......2007-01-16

Rizzo is a phenomenal producer, and on this debut release, it shows. I've listened to this over and over without tiring of it a bit. Wonderfully layered, gorgeous vocals, lush harmonies, and wonderfully catchy melodies. This is simply beautiful music.

My favorite tracks are Easy Way Out, Amborella, and Travel in Time. But every cut on this album is awesome.

Put it on a high quality, 2-channel rig. Preferably planar speakers with thousands of watts of power. And turn it up LOUD.

That's good music.

very good CD.......2007-01-16

This CD is less interesting than I thought it would be, but it is a great collection of almost-ambient music that is well-produced, and the CD flows seamlessly.

Unreal music for an Unreal Tournament.......2006-12-04

I don't know of the connection, but I can remember some of the music in the game and his matches it.

Sweet eccentric sound waves in a sea of groove and soul..........2006-06-29

This album reaches the peak of many stylistic mountains, ranging from an electronic lounge of sounds to the technical beats of hip hop and funk to the sultry sounds of soul and blues with a soothing touch of ambient. With the vocal talents of outstanding artists such as Kate Havnevik and Jem alongside Rizzo's outstanding compositions, the total experience becomes a blending of contemporary art with a classic orchestration that will blow your musical mind! A must have!!

Perfect title for perfect lounge music.......2006-04-21

If you heard Carmen Rizzo for the first time and thought, "Wow, that reminds me of Conjure One" you're not the only one and you're not far off. He was the engineer on the Conjure One debut album and there are definitely similarities - the female voices over the same kind of chilled beats.

I wouldn't, however say the album is on par with Delerium ("Karma" or "Poem"), simply because the lyrics aren't as subtle or mysterious as Delerium and the voices on this album other than Kate Havnevik (Jem, Esthero...) hardly count as ethereal - I find they tend to dominate the music rather than blend and float on top of it.

Overall, the album is a good listen for those Sunday evenings at home.
