Spacecraft: Earthtime Tapestry
ByIt's certainly pleasant and listenable. When they do get into a rhythmic sequence, it chugs energetically along, just like some of their famous European predecessors from the 70s like Tangerine Dream or Jean-Michel Jarre. But there is little in this music that makes my hair stand on end the way Stearns' or Roach's sounds do, and nothing much to remember about it. It is more background music (probably to the voice narration at a planetarium show) than powerful listening. The harmonies are almost entirely modal, if not minor-key, with a pop music sensibility which is friendly, rather than chilling or awe-inspiring. If any music could make the terrifying depths of deep space feel comforting, this would be it.
