Reviews & Discussion
An incredible album that's as evocative as its title -- one that blends together strings and electronics into a sublime suite of sound library grooves! The album was masterminded by the lesser-known Barry Forgie -- and also features work by other sound library talents Nino Nardini and Roger Roger, both of whom contribute some tasty Afro-styled grooves to the set! The overall feel is like the some of the best European soundtrack work from the time -- with lots of lush instrumental passages, laid out with undercurrents of funk in places you wouldn't expect. Great stuff overall ("Dawn Mists" by Barry Forgie).
