I've had the CD for quite a while now and it's my absolute favorite as far as office background music is concerned. All of the selections, from the masters of dark ambient sounds (Steve Roach, Vir Unis, Vidna Obmana), are ideal for de-stressing and provide an unobstrusive yet productive atmosphere for conducting the day-to-day business common to most of us office slaves. I can put the CD in my computer or stereo and listen to it not only all day long but also for a week at a time without become tired of it.

Most highly recommended! Take a listen, you'll be hooked.

I have many of Steve Roach's and Vidna Obmana's CDs, but this collection put together in Steve Roach's studio of some of his favorite ambient artists is one of the best compilations and ambient albums I own. I play it all the time in the background and late at night when trying to calm my ol brain down. Went to sleep to it many times...

This recording is a collaboration between Roach and other luminaries in the ambient music field. The music is not challenging, which is to say it's a good place to start if you're interested in exploring the ambient world. I heard some of this CD on the Public Radio show "Music from the Hearts of Space", and was quite taken with it, even though my background is, shall we say, rather "square" -- I live on Bach and English church music.

The cut that first got my attention was "Point of Safety". It was intriguing enough to get me to buy the CD. Since then, I have obtained several others, mostly by Roach (if you like this one, I'd suggest "Quiet Music" and the relatively new "Midnight Moon"). Since this recording is a collaboration with other artists, you get more than just Roach. I haven't been able to assimilate some of the other artists as easily as I have Roach's music.

This is great background ambient music and exceptional sleep music. There is nothing very exciting or unusual from Steve Roach, just more of the same standard fare done by different artists whom are not yet on the level of Steve.
