Editorial Reviews
Rick Smith, WWVU-FM radio, May 2005
Lush, dreamy ambience the way it was meant to sound...
Product Description
This is a classic electronic/new age album and classic Emerald Web. Originally recorded in 1990, and recently re-released. The music stands the test of time with its mixture of organic textures, electronic orchestrations and magical sonic landscapes.
"The Web continues to blend organic, elemental timbres of flutes and other acoustic traditional instruments with the latest tools of musical technology. From their earliest album together, (1978) "Dragon Wings and Wizard Tales" to "Manatee Dreams of Neptune", they have always remained true to their vision of a beautiful simplicity, yet paradoxically their music exudes an alluring warmth and elegance through technology." Robert Carlberg, music reviewer for Electronic Musician Magazine (from the liner notes)
From a review by Rick Smith, from WWVU-FM radio: Lush, dreamy ambience the way it was meant to sound... Reviewer: Rick Smith As an indie radio jock at West Virginia University's WWVU-FM in the late 1980s, I programmed our six-hour New Age/ambient show for about 18 months, and one of my top picks during that time was "Manatee Dreams of Neptune." What a trip down memory lane... and what a crushing blow to discover we've lost the talented Bob Stohl. Stohl and Kat Epple here deliver a work of remarkable, singular joy: lush, hypnotic, coolly sensual space-synth music, powerfully and organically orchestrated to cut to the bone, alternately sending you soaring and leaving you shuddering in the dark, somewhere out in the backwaters of a Solar System whose beauty exists with or without your attention. Give "Manatee Dreams" your attention -- you won't be sorry.
