Album Description

Music touches our hearts and resonates within our bodies. The right music can truly renew us, helping us to feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Great musicians have always recognized this therapeutic power of music, and researchers are finally proving them right. THE SOUND MEDICINE SERIES features the works of inspired musical pioneers who are exploring music's healing power.

Natural Balance and Harmony Your body is a self-healing instrument. If you give it a chance it will always tend toward homeostasis or healthful balance. Sound healer Steven Halpern uses soothing and free-floating keyboard compositions to draw the body into this state of balance and harmony. Combining artistic inspiration, sensitivity, and sophisticated sound technology, his compositions synchronize the hemispheres of the brain and amplify the production of alpha waves. This natural response is associated with feelings of deep relaxation, contentment, and well-being.

Steven Halpern, Ph.D. stands at the leading edge of the growing public understanding of the relationship between music, body, mind and spirit. An internationally acclaimed composer and recording artist Halpern has produced over sixty recordings and authored several books. His music has been featured on 48 Hours, America's Talking, and in USA Today, The New York Times and Yoga Journal. Halpern's recordings are used in hospitals, healing clinics, and leading spas worldwide.

Music for Healing Mind, Body & Spirit was previously released under the title In the Key of Healing

M. Gibbon "book maven".......2007-05-16

Good sleeping Music. Very calming for the mind. It would go nice with a cup of tea.

very nice.........2007-04-10

This CD was a nice experience. It did seem a little repetative but, all in all, it was good.

Sound Medicine: Music for Healing.......2007-03-20

When you come home at night, weary and bedraggled from yet another hard day at work and a long commute home, put on this cd. it will refresh your spirit and help it heal. :::::smile:::::

Great meditation CD.......2007-03-12

This is my new "go-to" CD for meditation. I'm a fan of vibrational music for meditation, but sometimes the vibrational CD's can get repetitive and boring. This CD has multiple tracks with variety in the music, but with calming vibrationals in the background. Good for meditation, guided imagery, yoga, or great background music for reading.

Sound Medicine: Music for Healing.......2007-01-04

Following a suggestion from Candace B. Pert, Ph.D. found in her book "Molecules of Emotion," I decided to look for a relaxation CD to help me fall asleep. Because I also suffer from migraines, the word "healing" in the title of this CD intrigued me. It's still hard to believe, but for the past three months it puts me to sleep so quickly that I've never heard the end of the CD! And if I should wake up in the middle of the night I just turn it on again and fall right back asleep. Amazing!

Loving Spirit, Black Hawk, SD.......2007-08-01

Chakra Suite has created wonderful tonal vibrations to open your chakras. This CD works well with whatever you are doing at the time of listening to it (ie: driving to or from work, washing dishes, or meditating).

Best of Steven Halpern.......2007-07-24

Chakra Suite the reissue of Spectrum Suite is a wonderful album.
One of the most popular New Age albums of all times. This CD is very good for energy healing and Chakra balancing. Also recommended for Chakra balancing and healing sessions is Healing Vibes by Paradiso.

Outstanding!.......2007-07-24

I just placed an order for my 2nd copy, so I can have one in the house and one in the car. I listen to this CD daily, especially when I need to concentrate on a specific task.

The Sleep Soundly CD by Steve Halpern is the one I use to fall asleep, it's so good I haven't been able to listen to the whole CD.

Relaxation.......2007-05-23

Steven Halpern is the master of relaxation music. It feels as if he knows the secret code to relaxation. This is the same for all of his meditation CDs. Chakra suite is one of the best CDs in chakra series.

Great Music.......2007-03-13

Anything Steve Halpern creates is soothing and wonderful and this CD is no different.

Myths and Legends arrives 20 years after the release of Valley in the Clouds, David Arkenstone's still-mesmerizing debut recording, and the composer/multi-instrumentalist calls it "probably the most ambitious project I have ever attempted." Extras certainly abound here. Beyond a bonus DVD, which mingles nature images, animation, and a few campy videos, Myths and Legends includes a supplemental audio CD designed to be played simultaneously (on a separate system) with the main audio disc. Synching up two discs can be an unwieldy task, yet the effort yields an entertaining listening experience where the main disc is enriched by a wealth of sonic accents (roars, voices, rattles, and hums), giving Arkenstone's musical tales a deeper dimension. (The migration of electric guitar between the two discs during "Daughter of the Sun" provides some fun aural calisthenics.) So, is it great music or just a great gimmick? For fans attracted to Arkenstone's cinematic flourishes and storytelling reveries through sound, it's pleasant, usually interesting listening--another reminder that he remains a worthy contender for a major soundtrack project. Arkenstone adorns many compositions with Celtic, Middle Eastern, and tribal colors, and links many with a sense of spirited, seafaring swagger. His fondness for flutes sometimes softens his sound a touch too much, but at other times Arkenstone allows the cosmic winds to carry him to interesting, dynamic places (such as "Tree of Life"). --Terry Wood

Album Description

Historical first - includes "Magical Bonus CD" and a full length DVD including interviews with David Arkenstone and director Johnny Wilson. "An amazing magical three disc set with a unique and unprecedented twist." The second magical CD is designed to be played simultaneously with the "Myths and Legends" CD and contains supplemental ambient textures, layered melodic material, sound effects and sonic encoding designed to transform each listening experience into a personal journey of discovery over unique multiple listening's.

Renowned visionary David Arkenstone holds the key to a secret centuries old, made of magic and mystery, of Myths and Legends. A place that exists all around us and within our hearts, minds, and souls. The key to this secret lies within the musical textures, layered melodic material, and sonic encoding contained herein. Each playing offers a personal journey of discovery unlocking a hidden door bringing light into our world. Supplemental textures of this three disc Audio Visual Connect Series(tm) transform and mold each listening experience into a singular unique event, never to be duplicated again. You now hold the key in your hand, it is time to unlock the door!

A unprecedented musical journey.......2007-08-04

If you are a fan of David's past recordings, you know already that you've been chartered across to all points of the globe and back again. If there were a CD that showcased all his musical attributes into one, this would most certainly be it. Just about every sound vacation that he's brought to life over the past twenty years is here and then some.

"Tree of Life" consists of an interesting blend of instruments in an Arabian setting - reminds me much of his one of his past cd's "Caravan of Light".You might think you're on a tropical island at the beginning, until the flutes and drums hit you.

"Legend of Bell Rock" has a very "Celtic Book of Days / Spirit of Ireland" feel to it. It starts off calm and vibrant, and then whisks you away into a celtic jig. Sounds a bit too similar and simple after a while, but definitely not a bad thing.

Back to the Middle East again with "Song of Sheherazade". This one starts off with a vocal solo that eventually makes you feel as though you are wandering an endless desert or Arabian marketplace. Add a little more ambience/trance and you've got a surprisingly catchy beat.

If you've listened to any of "Ah*Nee*Mah's" cd's (David and Diane Arkenstone), then you'll find "Daughter of the Sun" to be charting familiar territory. Authentic Native American chants in a toe-tapping setting with wood flutes and a rather interesting acoustic setting. This one begs to be played with the included ambience cd. What's really surprising about this track is near the end, it breaks out with an electric/rock guitar and multiple sets of instruments. It's quite a dramatic finish indeed and it works!

If you loved "Atlantis" (2004), you might very well enjoy "Oceanus" Although this one is far more `chill-out' than anything that was on that cd, you can't help but think of a tranquil waterscape where you are floating endlessly.

Fans of David's (2001) "Sketches From an American Journey" should enjoy the next track "Across the River" as it charts the main elements of that cd quite well. It's another style from David we've come to know and love.

"The Wolf's Head", starts of like something out of the Medieval Ages then accelerates into a very bouncy tune. If you enjoyed "Quest of the Dream Warrior / Celtic Book of Days", you'll get a nice wake up call here with this track. If you've suddenly got the urge to mount your stallion and take part in some dramatic quest after listening to this track, I won't shun you any =) Enjoy the dramatic finish as always.

"Temple of Isis" isn't yet just another Arabian tune, although one could see it that way immediately, but it goes back even further towards the time of the great Egyptians. Nothing too unpredictable here if you've listened to similar tracks like this before, but still another wonderful track as always.

Finishing of a cd after eight great tracks is never an easy task, you've got to put the finishing touches on the "journey" and leave the listener with a lasting impression. I actually can't recall too many moments in the past where David has had a track that resembled anything of Spanish nature. The Spanish guitar really highlights the track and then leads us into a heralding beat. Before you know it, "that sound" hits you like a ton of bricks and then marching drums! This track had a big role to fill and it does its job nicely.

As for the acoustic cd, I was able to listen to it on my computer alongside the regular cd (I'm sure you'll get a more rewarding system if you actually hook it up to two separate computers/sound systems and two sets of separate speakers as suggested), but I was able to pick up on some of the sound differences with my setup. It's a very interesting concept indeed and nothing that I've seen done before.

But you know, out of the entire package, I really, really, enjoy the DVD. Thanks to the power of computer animation, you will be able to experience, for the first time, a visionary journey in addition to the sounding of the tracks. I cannot emphasis how wonderful of an addition this is. It's like "watching" the music come to life, as corny as that may sound. With DVD-Audio sound, you'll be able to pick up the difference from standard CD-Audio, especially if you have a better sound system for your DVD Player. There are also interviews with David Arkenstone and director Johnny Wilson as stated in the item description. It's pretty fulfilling to be able to listen for a few minutes from one of the greatest American new age composers his personal thoughts of his own cd.

The final recommendation is this: Just get it! If you're a fan of David Arkenstone already, then you should have already made up your mind just by knowing who the composer of this cd was! When you know of his capabilities, then you know you can rarely ever be truly disappointed. For those who have never heard David's work, but love new age/world music, consider this to be a great introduction to the marveled musician. You'll get but a small taste of his creative spirit and then if you want even more of a particular "sub-genre", you can further divulge in the appropriate cd for that sub-genre. Considering the price tag often coincides with the price of regular cds, you're getting an unprecedented value here with the sweet extras.

David Arkenstone. Twenty years later, and he shows no signs of stopping his addictive musical infection, and I'm a listener who is not ashamed to admit that I'm glad I caught the strand of musical delight.

Myths & Legends.......2007-06-21

I am a big fan of David Arkenstone's music since first time I hear his state of the art Atlantis album. David Arkenstone is like a painter - he is using sound colors and textures to create images in music. With his music you can image far worlds you've never seen before.

On Myths & Legends, David Arkenstone also giving you a ticket to travel an actual visual world - with a bonus DVD contains high quality videos for all of the songs. Experiencing his deeply atmospheric music with 5.1 dolby digital audio definitely a unique event.

Also on audio part - there is an ambient CD. When you played it with main audio CD simultaneously it's creating even more deeper atmosphere (you will need separate music players and loudspeakers for it). Indeed it will let you in to the world of Myths & Legens.

I suggest this album to everyone. An old fan of David or new one - doesn't matter. It will be a unique audio-visual experience with every second of it.

One of the fundamental criticisms of New Age music is that it puts people to sleep. Here, Steven Halpern, one of the founding fathers of New Age, makes that his mission and, as you might expect, does an effective job of it. Drawing on catalog material from the early 1980s, Halpern builds an attractive collection of delicate, lighter-than-air sonic textures that nicely serves the intended purpose--to fill the silence with something prettier than white noise. Halpern does so by blending electric and acoustic piano, plus additional keyboards, to create soothing, improvisational, cloudlike musical abstractions that often convey the tranquil randomness of wind chimes in a soft breeze. The liner notes also promise your subconscious will be exposed to a series of subliminal, sleep-encouraging affirmations along the quiet, unstructured way. This may sound like so much frou-frou to the unconverted, but for anyone sincerely interested in a sleep aid, Halpern's disc is a certified snoozer, a New Age music box. Other New Age discs may accomplish the same purpose as Sleep Soundly, but few will do it as persuasively. --Terry Wood

not sleepy enough.......2007-03-02

Too repetative, made me want to speed up the Brahams lullaby. Just made me agitated. However my 8 yr. old daught listens to it many nights a bedtime and loves it. I like his Chakra CD much better and find it more relaxing.

Great CD For Falling Asleep.......2007-02-09

We have purchased several CDs to help us sleep, but this one is by far the best. My husband and I was able to fall asleep pretty much before the first track is finished or at most the beginning of the second track. I don't think I can even recall what the third track sounds like... It plays Brahms Lullaby in several versions (trio, duet, solo) along with some other songs, but it does it in a way that is very soothing.
I have strongly recommended the CD to other family members and my collegues.

ZZzzzzz is right!.......2007-01-13

During the first 5 minutes I told myself this is rediculous how is this going to get me to sleep?

Well after another 5 minutes I checked out and went straight to dreamland.
I woke up refreshed and full of energy. I always suffered from not being able to fall asleep, worrying about little things. The cd is great, I can't hear my own thoughts.
I'm a dj and since using this cd my ears are no longer tired and I can mix my music properly. Love it

works wonderfully for the little ones too.......2007-01-12

We have had trouble with our 2 year old staying in bed. She seems to think night time is a good time to bounce off the walls :) We started playing this CD and within 2 nights she was sleeping soundly without trouble. She shares a room with her 4 year-old sister who loves the CD as well. She will ask to have it played every night. It is very soothing background music.

Didn't sleep soundly.............2007-01-12

I found this cd very UNrelaxing, didn't lull me to sleep as promised. Very dissappointed and would not recommend.

New Age music, ambient electronica, and spiritualized hip-hop received their first major, K-Tel-like treatment in 1996 when Virgin Records assembled Pure Moods. The "As Seen on TV" compilation quickly became a hot seller, and it would be nice to think that its popularity has as much to do with the music as the marketing. To be sure, Pure Moods offers genre hits aplenty: from Enya's "Orinoco Flow" to "Sadness" from Enigma; from a dance mix of the "X-Files Theme" to edits of vintage electronica from Mike Oldfield (Tubular Bells) and Jean Michele Jarre (Oxygene). Beyond other selections of beat-enhanced chants and a few other popular themes ("The Mission," "Twin Peaks"), the album, refreshingly, also includes a few selections noteworthy only for their originality and quality. A three-track section near end of the 70-minute disk features affecting soft African chants from Geoffrey Oryema, followed by "My Wife with Champagne Shoulders," a dollop of regal, faintly ethereal romanticism from master film scorer Mark Isham, then a robust piano workout, "The Promise" from Michael Nyman (The Piano). With so many elements of interest on its 17 tracks, the album's broad diversity is sure to have broad popularity. --Terry Wood

Only Needs A Bit Of M E H D I.......2007-07-31

Oh, Wow! This is a cd that will be liked by all who enjoy M E H D I, E N I G M A or E N Y A. It is the very essence of good new age. So tranquil, yet so spirited, this cd is a refreshing break from my well-worn collection, I just keep wanting to listen to it over and over again. I am amazed! It reminds me somewhat of the others in the series, but still very unique. This is music to the soul. Absolutely relaxing, as well.

ALSO RECOMMENDED: M E H D I ~ Instrumental Paradise Volume 8 .JUST GO LISTEN TO THE SAMPLES ... A TRUE GEM !

A classic.......2007-06-14

Great compilation of electronic music for it's time. A lot of depth to it, you don't get to the 5th or 6th song and start getting into what seems like "filler".

Classical relaxation.......2007-05-20

I loved the music on here they are so peacful like the xfiles theme tubular bells with the overy babbling melody and crockettes theme which was the best song with no vocals and they saved the best for last LILY WAS HERE with excellent non vocaling music with lite accoustic guitars and perfect saxaphone playing with a touch of soothing melody. My mothers into spiritual things mostly and she loves this pure moods mix of peacful music. I use to listen to this while I sleep I loved it but now I sleep with the fan on because I love to hear the sound of the fan while I sleep.

New Age as a child? Really?.......2007-05-17

I must have been around six or seven when I came across this cd through the TV ads. I couldn't buy it myself but I loved the music. It wasn't until I was much older and borrowed it from the library did I remember how much I loved this. I uploaded some of the songs onto my computer, only because I had downloaded some of them already. I started listening to the other pure moods and it's still the same.

Flowing music between ambient, new age, and soft electronica it pulls up its own forrest of emotion as it pulls you closer into the center of yourself. YOu find those pieces of you again that you haven't discovered. A must have for anyone wanting to get in touch with themselves, or just don't know how to relax after a hard day at work.

The Sway.......2007-05-16

I must admit, I've always felt kind of silly for owning this CD. Yet it's got wonderful songs on it. Each one sets a tone that carries you throughout. I've had this CD for years and I still pull it out and listen to it.

LIGHT MUSIC FOR US.......2007-06-27

I enjoyed all the CD's I've received so far. I used this one a couple times giving Reiki to someone and it is very appropriate and the timing is almost exact, from the time a treatment starts to the finish. Only one person mentioned that the stops between tracks were a little long. She wanted continuous sound, but thought it fit in with her treatment.

It was very helpful in unwinding! Found the technics easy to follow and relieved stress.

Great CD.......2007-06-05

I can't say enough about this CD. It is great to meditate to. If you just want to take a 20 minute vacation, it is possible with the help of Steven Halpern's music and sounds then Emmett Miller's soothing voice on this CD. Highly recommended!

The best I've ever encountered.......2006-07-01

This CD is the best I've ever encountered as far as relaxation CD's go. The first time I listened to Autogenic Stress Relief I was scared of feeling relaxed (because I don't know how to relax). The second time I was used to the process and it was wonderful. I can't brag on this CD enough. I can concentrate, I can focus, and I don't worry about things as much.

Beautiful Guided Imagery and Music.......2006-06-25

Emmitt Miller leads you thru four different relaxation sessions, each about 20 min. in length. His voice is very soothing and the background music is perfectly in tune with the guided imagery. The music is performed by Steven Halpern. I agree with the previous reviewer that the trip to the beach is the best one on the CD, but the others area very good too. You can use in the middle of the day or before going to sleep to aid in relaxation. Very much worth the money for this CD.

Please see my other reviews on Amazon.

The Ultimate Relaxation.......2005-02-27

Dear Friends,
I have been enjoying the use of this tape for many years. It has four separate 20 minute relaxation sessions on it. Some have muscle tension progressive relaxation exercises, which are fantastic. But my favorite session is "A Trip to The Beach." It is a guided imagery session that relaxes you, takes you on a trip to the beach, and guides you in seeing your body as healthy and strong. You can use this tape for an afternoon relaxation session, or you can use it as you go to sleep at night. Even though it will bring you "up" at the end, I have never had a problem just sleeping soundly through it when it is bedtime. I've used this tape when going through severe health challenges and stressful situations. My husband also enjoys listening to it at night. I highly recommend it.

Who can fault an artist who so clearly embraces a one-planet, one-people worldview? Someone who recruits guest instrumentalists from every hemisphere to underscore his fondness for multiculturalism and convey his wish for global harmony? You can't help but admire Yanni, the Greek keyboardist/composer, even while acknowledging such nobility does not always translate into deeply satisfying music. On this, the audio-only component of his third made-for-television concert production (filmed in 2005 in Las Vegas), Yanni continues in his adopted role of True Egalitarian, playing a few bars to open a piece, then fading into the background to let other musicians (on violin, trumpet, sax, didgeridoo, hammer dulcimer, even keyboards) command the music's flow. A lovely gesture, but one that often results in extended soloing that sidetracks, even derails, the focus of the music. (Consider "Playtime," where Ming Freeman plays the jazzy piano solo, and the disc's previously unreleased track, "The Storm," pairing violinists Samvel Yervinyan and Sayaka Katsuki in a showy duet that is reminiscent of something from Bond.) Thus while the musicianship is first-rate, the production is superb, and some tracks are terrific (too bad "Standing in Motion" fades out so quickly), this disc is more about the jamming and less about staying on compositional task. Likely this project will be better appreciated in its DVD version, where the staging and artist interaction is on display. Meanwhile, some longtime fans may be left yearning for a day when Yanni will step up to his keyboards, drop the hammer, and let his own muse rock. --Terry Wood

Simply The BEST!.......2007-05-14

I've always been a fan of Yanni, & I though I ordered the last album, which is different than the Live Concert.
When I checked Yanni's Website, I knew I ordered the wrong CD (Live Concert)
But I never regretted it, I don't know how could I have not hear it.
I've been playing the CD in my car for more than a month continuously. I cannot stop listening to it!
If you like new age & specially Yanni, You SHOULD get this CD!
Extremely recommended.

Steven Halpern has more than 60 recordings in circulation, including audio projects ostensibly designed to enhance memory, wealth, and weight loss. He even has his own trademarked slogan--the Halpern Effect(tm)! (Take that, Mozart.) Thus, it's easy to view Halpern's high-volume output since 1975 less as art and more like a commodity. Gifts of the Angels, a 68-minute compilation (sampling eight albums and adding two original pieces), offers a few nuggets that suggest Halpern's music at times can stand on its own merits, detached from all of its deep-bliss, New Age pretensions. "Celestial Prophecy," is a nicely detailed (which is not to say complex) excursion on solo piano that briefly stirs the senses, and the title track from Higher Ground is a delicate space-music standout. Meanwhile, the 1970s-flashback tonality of Halpern's electric piano (one piece, "Earthrise," can be traced to Halpern's debut release, Spectrum Suite) dates several of the tracks included here. Nevertheless, the disc's pace, which drifts deeper into the ether on each of the last five tracks, is nicely constructed for those aiming to nod off into a state of contented nothingness. --Terry Wood

I have used this CD for TEN YEARS..........2006-12-23

As a massage therapist, this is the ONLY CD I have used consistently in my practice over the past TEN years. There is something about this particular CD that I absolutely love and that has not been duplicated in other CDs I have used (literally hundreds!) Steven Halpern comes up with awesome music! I have many of his other CDs as well, but NOTHING comes close to "Gifts of the Angels". I am now using my 3rd copy and will buy another when this one is worn out. Many of my clients ASK me to use it in their massage sessions and ask me where to find Halpern's music. Superb.

Welcome to the warm embrace of angels!.......2006-08-31

When much of modern day's rock music and the civilization's pressure on people's lifestyle has a stressful and bad influence on the well being Steven Halpern's music is a blessing. The Godfather and inventor of the New Age music that has a healing and relaxing purpose makes music that puts the body in it's own rhythm and leads into a state of balance and inner peace. Gifts of Angels does all this, but adds an extra dimension with its beautiful angel song, making this an absolute world class New Age album. The music puts the brain waves in an alpha state and sometimes my heartbeat even gets down to 40 beats per minute, leading to a sense of peace and relaxation at the same time as its get me ready to meet my everyday life as a more balanced and happier human being. To have the opportunity to lie down and do nothing, just listen to this beautiful music, and let it fill your entire body with peace and comfort is a luxury that I think every human being should have the opportunity to do and that everybody needs to do once in a while. Unfortunately many people don't have the knowledge about New Age and the way it helps us to a better life. Bands like Rush, Journey and Def Leppard gives us the rush and entertainment that we need to be energetic while going to the gym or driving the car fast on a sunny summer day. Steven Halpern's music gets the body in a state of balance and peace and helps us to get more concentrated and focused. The price of this CD is not just the price of another CD, it's an investment in a better life, like buying a miracle pill that gets you healthier and helps you get away from illness and an unhealthy life, a pill that never will end.

The music is just that! It sounds like you're in Heaven. Halpern scores again!

This is truly music from the angels.......2006-03-24

I listen to this CD when I am meditating and while I am taking a bath. It allows me to relax and truly be in a state of heaven. I love it.

life saving music.......2006-03-07

I did not expect this but I was really buying this for myself, turns out my daughter likes this at night so she can fall asleep. My daughter is 4 and very active, she never seems to know when to rest and relax.
I decided to play this one night just to ease the mood of the night and she was asleep by the 4th song. We play this cd every night. thank!, you thank!, you thank you!

I love this cd because now I can have her go to sleep at a time that is normal for her age instead of an adult time.

Thanks, I recommend this cd for every one that is tense and needs a good easy winding down. I love it

From The Sky by Ryan Farish.......2006-05-06

This is Ryan Farish's follow up to his "Beautiful" CD.Invigorating and inspiring, the songs on this CD are pensive, meditative and reflective.If, like me, you loved "Beautiful's" infectious good cheer and impossible to resist hooks, you'll not be disappointed with From the Sky.

Farish branches out into Deep Forest-ish territory with third world chant/chorale samples on the opening "The Promise" (set off against his usual piano, snare/high-hat beats, and flowing keyboards).He incorporates these same elements in a few other spots on the album (e.g. the celebratory "Joy").

"Living Water" opens with breathy wood flute samples and also features the first noticeable appearance of acoustic guitar, deep in the mix but easily heard on headphones, and the beats have a more sensuous if not primal urgency, counterpointed by almost blues-jazz piano.

Some songs hone closer to the sound Farish perfected on Beautiful, such as "Home Again" and "Legacy", which is a trippy beat-laden "happy to be alive" kind of tune featuring excellent use of female chorals with piano, beats and lush synths, as well as some funky bass rhythms."Miles Away" is a slower tempo piece that would be ideal accompaniment for a brisk walk along a country lane.

The title track is a slow tempo song but dramatic affair which again uses orchestral strings to greater effect than simply applying a layer of wash of violins."Rejoice", the album closer, starts off sounding like Ray Lynch before veering over into Deep Forest tribal chants set against a percolating backbeat, lilting lively flute samples, and eventually Enigma-esque rhythms, all the while retaining the particular plucked string synth sound.

My favorite song from this CD would have to be the beautiful "Pacific Wind", which features stunning female vocals with a nice piano piece to back it up.

In conclusion, "From The Sky" amply displays Ryan's strong blend of reverbed piano, bubbly beats, expert layering of assorted keyboards and chill-out/electronica effects, as well as production that is flawless in every respect.I highly recommend this CD to all music lovers, trust me, you won't be disappointed with this CD, I know I wasn't........

Guilty Pleasure.......2005-12-27

This is sort of like the bubble gum music of new age. But who cares? Its simple direct melodies, bouncy rhythms and colorful sound just get you hooked. It gets lots of play time in my CD collection.

Simply Beautiful New Age Music.......2005-11-03

You may have heard snippets of Ryan Farish's music if you have ever watched The Weather Channel. His music has been featured on the Weather on the 8's as well as Storm Stories. But his credits are not limited to TV snippets; his music also graces a documentary, and has found its way into the NPR radio stations and featured on CBN's 700 Club.

It was, however, mp3.com that made this artist. He originally released his music on mp3.com, rapidly becoming one of the most downloaded artists on the site. His New Age music is inspiring, providing compositions that explore his melodies fully with a very upbeat and positive inclination.

This CD contains twelve tracks, with no times listed, and it runs about an hour. This is very professionally produced, with string arrangements by John Majkut.

Some highlights include "The Promise" which is reminiscent of Deep Forest, with drums, lovely piano composition, tribal voices and choir. This piece has a lovely upbeat rhythm and a delightful piano melody. A very good opening introduction to this CD.

Also "Home Again" which has a stand out beat, Again, bright, melodic and almost inspirational. "Walk With You" takes an almost Eastern turn, adding flute to accompany the piano with the return of the choir and tribal beat. A nice blending of rhythms and style.

It's easy to see why this CD is #3 on New Age Billboard Chart. The music is always upbeat, even when it takes a time out to contemplate. It is inspirational in feel, and the compositions are worth taking the time to appreciate. As in all New Age music, this CD can be a focal point, or a soundscape for your personal space. A must have for your New Age collection. mafoster

Inspiring!.......2005-11-02

Since his last release, Farish changed residences from the East to the West. The Norfolk, Virginia native moved to Los Angeles late last year, a big change of scenery him and his wife. Farish explained to his fans that he wanted to be on the west coast to pursue a career as a successful music composer and become involved in movie projects. Farish's use of vocal arrangements on the various tracks such as "The Promise" is a refreshing chance of pace from his previous releases. It shows his diverse musical talents. He also uses South African vocal arrangements in the track, "Rejoice!" Listening to this CD gives me extreme pride and joy. Its soothing melodies are uplifting and inspirational. Much like last year's Top 5 Smooth Jazz and More selection "Beautiful", "From the Sky" will be a CD at the top of this year's "best of" list as well. Farish is a talented musician and a future star in the music world.

Not quite as BEAUTIFUL.......2005-10-26

I would like to have scored four and a half. Very delightful
with more vocals than Beautiful. Ryan seems to be reaching for
something new with this release. In my opinion the best tracks
are the ones that are similar in form to those in his last
disc.
