About

A stunningly good debut from ambient artist Matt Hillier. Connoisseurs may recognize standout tracks "Bhakti" and "Sol" from Interchill compilation CDs, but newcomers to the genre -- perhaps nervous of the New Age connotations -- will wallow in its pristine tranquility, if they let themselves. Don't throw the baby out with the flotation tank water!
