Reviews & Discussion
A semi-trance, semi-ambient cosmic journey through Geir Jenssen's soundscapes. This was the first of Biosphere I've known and still is very dear for me. Great movie samples in English and Russian give me a "space-station" feeling in some moments. I have to say that this album is a bit uneven and I prefer the ambient "side", which later became Jenssen's speciality. Anyway, a great album to start your acquaintance with ambient in general and Biosphere in particular. And once you've fallen in love with that music, it stays with you...
''We had a dream last night'..''We had the same dream'..
More spaced out ambient techno by Geir Jenssen. As good as Microgravity i think. Later on in the 90's he will make more 'abstract' ambient music. Great (listen to Substrata, really, really good) but i prefer Patashnik and Microgravity. For me they are cornerstones of the great electronica building..
