Striking a balance between earthy and ethereal, Phil Thornton's DREAMSCAPES is a musical adventure themed after the interpretation of dreams. This kaleidoscope of flutes, keyboards, percussion, guitar and fretless bass coalesces into a contemporary, harmony-driven work that takes listeners deep into the subconscious mind. At times quite organic ("Forest Pathways" seems to flow with natural energy) and at other times quiet and mystical (the enchanting "Arcadia" is a stand-out), the album is a fascinating display of relaxation music with a global flavor. Special guests include percussionist Hossam Ramzy, flutist Nigel Shaw and pianist Stuart Jones.
