    Press Reviews
    PEOPLESOUND WEBSITE REVIEW: Here lie some invigorating global sounds that have been given the ambient treatment. Embellished by arresting beats and a veritable plethora of captivating samples, Ephemerid expertly experiment without interrupting the natural trajectory of their compositions. ?Seraph? is a perfect example of what to expect as an innovative and chilled-out soundscape that?s lush with synthetic texture is given a tribal (if not tropical) spin. ------------------------------------------------ GODS OF MUSIC REVIEW: I'll admit to being sceptical at first; I often find in World Fusion that the premise of traditional folk instruments combined with hi-tech loops does not work at all well. Having said that, Ephemerid managed to overcome this scepticism with relative ease, which must say something about it's worth.

In a lot of ways Ephemerid is very similar to Amethystium, another Mp3.com champion. But Ephemerid has it's own identity too, so if you liked the former, I can recommend the latter certainly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ COMPUTER MUSIC MAGAZINE REVIEW: This worldly, expansive effort combines ethnic instruments with moody presentation and really goes to show just what can be done in a computer today.
