- Edited 7 days agoI got this new package a couple days ago. A few months ago, strangely enough, when I saw they were doing 2xcd reissue I wondered why they didnt do vinyl. So I called James Bernard up to see if I could press it for my label and he told me this 4x12 was coming. Ooops, I missed out but I ordered a copy regardless, of course. Past Inside the Present did a really great job honoring this in multiple ways. The original being reissued and then have BVdub do his reinterpretations. This is a unique way to do a reissue. So respect to them. I guess I will need to reissue something else by my friend now....
- Edited 8 days agoHad the chance to go through the original album today (sides A-D), the pressing is great. With the limited copies, grab this while you can.

Bought this when it was released and had forgotten how good it is. The youtube links reminded me. It's like the electronic music gods were channeled when this was created. This is one of those albums that will stay relevant forever. referencing Atmospherics (CD, Album) RSN CD14
I bought this CD two years ago in a local record store and I still listen to it weekly. Stunning record.- Edited 12 years ago

James Bernard's Atmospherics is one of the best ambient works of 1994 (see user Taint's 1994 list for others). My favorite year in electronic music. Rising High delivered some excellent ambient and trance during those days. This is widely known as one of the best.
Euph starts the cd with a deep, ominous and eerie beginning to what will be a wonderful trip into space. Complete Nonsense changes that. Your ship just went on remote auto pilot and you get redirected into a sci-fi interference like you landed on the wrong planet. Last minute of that song bridging to Helix sounds like Brian Enos Apollo release. Helix takes you out of harms way and back on your original mission. As it floats you about in awe it then cuts and Phosphorous begins to build. More eerie sci-fi melodics and voice samples like "it just won't stop singing in my head" and "the most difficult thing I've ever tried is to clear the mind". Acid line comes out over bassline nearly making this a trance track without the beat. Thankfully it does not here. Mars Rain is exactly how it sounds. As the song progresses the thunder sounds like bombs a little bit which makes the track even more eerie. Lost in It starts with goose bump keyboard tones and builds to a majestic peak and you reach your mission objective. FM rewards you for the heavy listening of Lost in It and easies you down to take a breather and enjoy your trip. Odyssey gives you time to reflect and recount your journey in your journal. But you are not alone...
