Press Reviews
“...full of masterful songs, catchy melodies and marvelous arrangements. I cannot speak too highly of Wheel of the Year. This is an instrumental album - not ambient - and as such, there are lots of percussion, guitars, synthesizers and an array of acoustic instruments fusing together to paint a rich landscape of joy and light. Steve's guitar work is delightful and intricate ...extremely catchy, fun and uplifting.” — AMBIENCE MAGAZINEWOW! "Wheel of the Year" could well be the "CD of the Year"--GREAT!!Pat Brent WVKR 91.3 FM, PA“ Highly recommended...Absorbingly pretty pastoral melodies ...Sparkling acoustic guitar leads...Catchy rhythms, deep drones, environmental sounds...make this happy music appreciably upbeat.” – PJ Birosik, NEW AGE RETAILER“ Get ready to take “concept” to a new level! Using world beats and several different acoustic instruments, Steve expresses not only his love for an array of music, but his closeness to the earth. ...Wheel of the Year is a fresh, spring field of rare wild flowers begging to be picked. Pick up this collection...and literally tune into the earth...a dazzling feast for the ear.–Allen Payne, MAGICAL BLEND, Jan-Feb ‘98“Peaceful and sprightly pieces honoring the seasons” —NAPRA Review“I think this will really go places...and I might add is the most listened to CD on my website.Track #4 (Beltane) - very awesome tune - I had it on repeat play on the way home.”–Raven Wind Books & Music, Royal Oak, MI |
