This song really can make me go deep in meditation, and would be a great help when giving high-frequency healings..."

Reminds me of the first light of dawn. The instrumentation is superb. I liked the choral effect. It is truly stunning! Well done you."

Felixstowe, Suffolk, United Kingdom - 29th February 2008.

"Wonderful Creation!...
This is so beautiful to listen to - the overall feel, the light bells, wavy sound - everything is perfect! Nice production, mix - everything fits so well ... and the voices, icing on the cake! Nice job. Congratulations..."

Demetrius Stevenson - Los Angeles, California, USA - 29th January 2008.

"Feel like swimming?...
I really enjoyed this song, it makes you feel like you're floating in an ocean of space. This is a beautiful piece of music. It is a very peaceful song."

James Girouard - Fairfax, Virginia, USA - 17th January 2008.

"Voice of things to come...
The overall mood set by this piece is very strong. The builds come in wave-like patterns. The voices float over and in and out like clouds."

Darin Hyer - Pensacola, Florida, USA - 17th January 2008.

"Fantastical soundtrack!...
Cool underwater sounding strings... kind of reminds me of Tangerine Dream and the soundtrack to Legend. Very surreal and fantastical in all its elements. Picturesque in scope, the music dreams up images of faraway places of magic and mystery. I especially love the tone of the harp combined with everything else. Overall, the mood is majestic and surreal!"

Kenny Woods - New York City, New Jersey, USA - 11th January 2008.

"Thank you, I'm emotionally satisfied!...
If this is all keyboard, bravo! you could write movie scores. The melodic lines were well thought out and the harmonies and chords were great!"

Poetic Jazz - Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA - 8th January 2008.

"Beautiful!...
A good meditative tune. Well balanced, and good choice of instruments. Captures the essence of tranquillity."

Slybarman - Auckland, New Zealand - 7th January 2008.

"Taken away!...
Just loved this track!... within seconds a musical soundscape opens the imagination into acoustic panorama. The melody, instrumentation and effects are all quite simple, yet crafted together perfectly, the work of a true artist. The words magnificent and wonderful jump to mind. I could listen to this track over and over again."

John Stitch - United Kingdom - 5th January 2008

"Undeniably beautiful!...
I liked the chord choices from the very start. It's gorgeous! Production is very well done. The harp is amazing! It's great for a film or just to listen to on CD."

Pam Isato - San Luis Obispo, California, USA - 30th December 2007.

"Magistral progression...
I like the orchestration and the great progression of the song. It is very magistral and creates a great sound space."

JFV - Quebec, Canada - 26th December 2007.

"Heavenly!...
I like the sound and feel on the opening ... mixing into the heavenly floating-in-clouds feeling created by the synthesizer. Very relaxing, very pleasant. Nice job. Great production and arrangement."

Dantharp - Green Valley, Illinois, USA - 2nd December 2007.

"Romantic score...
Mmmmmm nice theme! and some nice chords - dare I say slightly Vangelis-like in sound - but a good and original production. Very filmic and would make a good romantic underscore."

Audio Detective - Essex, United Kingdom - 29th November 2007.

"Beautiful ambience!...
This piece does a nice job of setting the moods ranging from awed reverence to peaceful dreaminess. The harp arpeggios give movement and pulse. Nice job with the choral 'ahhs' ... they aren't too heavy as they so often are. The orchestration provides a varied texture as dominance is shared between strings alone and other voices combined."

Leslie Dripps - Richmond, Virginia, USA - 27th November 2007.

"A date with Debussy!...
An ambitious, dense piece of music that leans toward impressionism and romanticism."

La Monica - Oakland, California, USA - 24th November 2007.

"Solid soundscape...
Right from the first chord-wave you are awash with an incredibly thick carpet texture of music creating an absolutely incredible mood! Kind of a "Wagner meets Debussy" effect! Stunning and inspiring in its complexity and simplicity! This was absolutely GRAND on every level! What a pleasure! A first class job all the way round! BRAVO and BRAVO again! All the very best of luck!"

Lui Gentile - Eitorf, Germany - 20th November 2007.

"A Calm Light...
A Calm Light is a remarkably relaxing CD which I have found rewarding. I like to listen to it when I am unwinding from work. I can recommend this disc for meditation, tai chi, and reflexology, which this type of music is ideal for."

J Byford - United Kingdom - June 2007.
