sleeve : EX+(IN SHRINK, slightly collapse on corner.)
media : EX+/EX+(some slightly noise.)
An album released in 1984 by American composer and multi-instrumentalist Steven Halpern—one of the pioneers of New Age music alongside Iasos—and Dallas Smith. Featuring the rounded, gentle tones of the Fender Rhodes and the soaring synthesizer sounds that are Halpern’s trademark, the recording presents a collection of exquisitely beautiful, celestial New Age electronics that cleanse the soundscape. Among Steven Halpern’s many works, this is one that truly deserves to be called a masterpiece. With a sound world reminiscent of Eberhard Weber’s ECM recordings, it is also highly recommended for those who enjoy deep contemporary jazz. Original US pressing.
