Press Reviews I drifted away in the mood The Elysium Facade had recorded... it is extremely relaxing, and sets you in an emotion. It lets you think more clearly than other music does... It's soothing, relaxing, calm, and fascinating, all at the same time. Highly recommended. ~Gods Of Music magazine
