Rated 5/5
Review by linarator Dec 16, 2005 (edited over 3 years ago)
A milestone for Ambient in my mind, and still my favorite release of all time. I don't think I will ever stop pulling it out of my CD collection. A wide variation of themes are present on this album, all emotional and powerful in there own way. First class ambient all the way.

When comparing both albums of Asura...The Lost Eden seems to be the slower one. It's tracks show a complete variety of styles, being vocal, instrumental, electronic. Also track number 2 "The Lost Eden" is a real anthemn, a trully romantique song, with some really nice vocals, just a great tune to relax, also track nr.6 "fahrenheit" is a true killer (if we can use that word with such subtle music). A really nice album, genred psychedelic chill-out/downtempo, a must for everyone who enjoys good relaxing music :)
