This is the best Windham Hill sampler and nothing like the "heralded" but really laid back "Winter's/Summer's Solstice" releases by Paul Winter, one of Windham Hill's premier artists of the 80s. While SOTM is classified as "electronic" music, it has oriental and jazz inspirations throughout.

I have loved this release since the 80s. When my tape started to wear out, I copied it and bought the CD. But every Soul of the Machine CD that I buy seems to disappear into thin air, just like that other reviewer has experienced. Hmmm, my friends DO love this release ... .

Listen to this by the pool or while sitting on the patio in the evening. It is relaxing and, even after nearly 15 years, it is still one of my favorite CDs. If you like Arkenstone, Aura and Grusin (Dave or Don), you won't be disappointed. It will grow on you, too, and become your favorite CD in no time flat.

Simply the best.......2004-04-30

I used to own two copies of this CD and they both have disappeared because once people hear it, they steal it. This is simply one of the best CDs available in the new age/electronic genre. One of the top CDs in my 'desert island' collection.

Beautiful-Calming.......2003-08-01

This sampler of Windham Hill artists is beautiful and very calming. It is fine as background music,but really it deserves to be listened to over headphones in an enviornment where you can give the music your attention. I usually listen to hardcore punk or metal. This is an album I listen to when I want to slowly relax all of the muscles in my body. This music verges on the spiritual,and I recommend it for anyone who is getting fed up with all of the stress our lives generates.
