What a beautiful piece of work this album is! What sets Gert Emmens apart from his peers are his gorgeous melodies - soaring, lush and sensual. The last track 'The Voyage of Voyager 1' is a masterpiece, the main motif set against ever-changing pitches and crystal-clear rhythms with odd touches of muffled voices and industrial noises. There is also a clarity in his work which makes him stand out from other modern Berlin school composers.
