Stary night to sleep by by Arik Reven  5 Stars
May 29, 2008
The music in this album is very quiet and peaceful. I use this music nightly to relax my mind, allowing it to drift among the stars until I fall asleep. Beautiful sounds and calming rythm.

Umm, it's sorta froofy by Emlyn Addison (Providence, RI)  3 Stars
April 06, 2007
Judging by the reviews I had read here I was expecting something not unremarkable, but really this is just old-style New Age with a few added flavors.
Even the old Cosmos-like analog synth stuff wasn't all that inspired, and much of sounded like it was trying to rehash Vangelis' original concept.
Sorry; unremarkable.

An excellent CD of new age "space" music by T. S. Haque (Yardley, PA) 5 Stars
August 07, 2006
I own this CD, I love this CD! Some new age music that claims to be space-related just doesn't cut it. With "Galaxies," every time I listen to it I can mentally drift off and imagine encountering the phenomena the tracks are named for. I own quite a few ambient New Age CDs, and this one is one of my top 3. If you're seeking music that puts you in mind of space flight, along the lines of the Hearts of Space collections, this CD is a must-own!

Exactly what I was looking for... 5 Stars
January 05, 2002
I don't agree at all with the previous reviews that say this is "commercial sounding"... In fact, I don't even know what they are talking about. This CD is first rate. It reminds me of when I went to the San Francisco planetarium for the first time when I was little. The experience was charactirized by overwhelming awe and transport. When I listen to this, I know just how Ellie (in Contact by Carl Sagan - the movie version) felt when she space..."can't describe...no words...poetry..." This music is a soundtrack for experiencing the Numinous.Buy this!

Wonderful stimulus to the imagination. by Timothy P. Scanlon (Hyattsville, MDUSA)  4 Stars
May 28, 2001
Actually, I like and agree with both of the prior reviews. I've had this for a number of years, like it a lot, though, yeah, it is a tad commercial. While listening to it, I think of the novel "Starmaker" the author of which escapes me at this point, but I think it's Olaf Stabledon. Just ponder interstellar, let alone intergalactic space. Then maybe I'll pull out a book or magazine with a color photo of, say, the Sombrero galaxy, or even neighbor Andromeda, and contemplate their trillion or so stars...or the atoms of my body which were one day part of a star....There's a slight resemblance to Mike Oldfield too, though my apologies to those who either love or hate Oldfield. I just hear most of his music as kind of pointless but relaxing and mentally stimulating at the same time.Well, in a nutshell, I'm delighted, though not surprised, that Amazon.com offers this. And I'll have to order some more of Braheny's music now. I hope I enjoy it as much.

| Novus Magnificat: Through the Stargate
by Constance Demby
Novus Magnificat, a gorgeous, otherworldly opus from classically trained pianist Constance Demby, has become a true classic in New Age music, appealing to a wide variety of listeners, many of whom are ordinarily put off by the genre. Rooted in worship music of the Western tradition, Demby's majestic improvisational vision produces what the 1986 disc's liner notes call "Contemporary classical Spacemusic: A Magnificat and Exaltate." Incorporating the central voice of synthesizer with a...
