2 stars It's an OK album, but no more. Enjoyable certainly. But not a masterpiece by any means. The problem is not that it's all synth-based, but that it lacks depth in the compositions, which are shallow and repetitive. It's ok in vocal songs, but in the instrumentals, such as this album, the repetitiveness is annoying. Otherwise, a pleasant album, although for depth and feeling I would definitely suggest Vangelis' "Heaven And Hell" or "Albedo 0.39" as a FAR superior alternative. By the way why is Vangelis not represented on this site? I never understood it.
