![]() Entirely built around Miller's synthesizers,this work would not show any music developmemt over his early years with ''Interstellar Passage'' being a New Age/Electronic album of relaxed soundscapes and promising atmospheres.A good album for the style, evolving cosmic electronics and spacey synthesizers over a dreamy atmosphere overall,but with no signs of Miller's later musical explorations.The composer uses a variety of sampled instruments including flutes, strings and acoustic guitars in order to offer a richer sound, however these come-up as absolutely cheap-sounding additions to his keyboard work and very typical- sounding of the recordings' time.While not being a bad album, ''Interstellar Passage'' tends to be rather monotonous and repetitive with its listening,however the last tracks feature some good Electronic/Symphonic soundscapes,somewhat closer to the style of his later albums. Very monotonous effort for even the average proghead and not really representitive of Rick Miller's next works, ''Interstellar Passage'' is the perfect album for a relaxing mood but the worst for an occasional prog listening.A good addition only for fans of New Age music.
