PROJECT MOONBEAM

On the last section of tunes, the handful or so of tunes with Rule participating are very much about contrasts, with warm sounding instruments and atmospheres are contrasted with the cold and chilly sounds of the electric violin; resulting in musical creations with a cold alien feel to them, psychedelic music from another plane being my main impression of those tunes.

The rest of the compositions are partly new age tinged synth dominated explorations, some tunes coming across more like some kind of space fusion and a few good old fashioned space rockers of the slicker kind; less gritty and harsh than most tunes in this genre.

It is an uneven album overall; some tunes brilliant and captivating while others are more mediocre. Most tunes are good though, and fans of space-tinged music should find lots of goodies on this release.
