    Press Reviews
    ?These guys Have Engraved a Totally New Ambient Sound!?.:.?Put on your headphones, lie down, and get ready to leave your body behind?.:.?Transoceanic is undoubtedly some of the best work I've heard here on MP3.com. This is unique and fresh! I knew only a minute or two into ?Celtic Stream? that is was going to be fabulous all the way through! I love the extended length of the pieces! Really nice and original sound! You are definitely going on my November purchase list! ... Fantastic Work!!!".:."Very mystical; kinda reminds me of music from a space movie in an IMAX theatre. ?Celtic Stream? sounds like mood music and is really dreamy. Extremely warm and full-sounding arrangement.?.:.?I think your music is beautiful.?.:.?Holy s*** I love your style?.:.?Transoceanic take you on a journey with the music they write and perform. As an artist, I appreciate music that helps me focus and relax. 'Celtic Stream' does just that, taking you on a journey. Enjoy the ride.?.:."'Millennial Sunset is surely the most relaxing song yet from Transoceanic. You're sitting on a warm grassy hilltop overlooking the sea. The sun is setting. The reflection of the sun on the waves below creates the impression of a gently shimmering pathway' ... as stated by Richard Jones of the band Transoceanic. I agree. The best part of the song occurred for me when the second theme began. You'll know what I mean when you take a listen to this great score. First, put yourself in a relaxing place that allows you to think without being distracted ... a big easy chair by the fire ... outside the rain is falling or the wind is blowing through the trees ... or just close your eyes and let go.".:.?I listened to Celtic Stream first. Soothing, beautiful, hypnotic. It sounds organic though it is clearly synthesized. Real Easy Listening music to meditate by. Very cool!?.:.?I just stumbled across your site and your music is marvelous. I have a friend who is a massage therapist and is always looking for new music so you can be sure I will tell her about you. Keep up the good work!?.:.?I met Richard Jones of Transoceanic through the MP3 community. He was kind enough to include one of my tunes on his station and now as I'm finally putting together a station, I'm returning the favor. Not simply to return the favor, but because he and his musical partners are doing some wonderful, very spiritual, music in the truest sense of ambient, paying thanks to such influences as Brian Eno and Kitaro.?.:.?This piece is like a call from afar and ancient, with it's opening Moog sounding voice.?.:.?The ocean is an extremely relaxing place to be and this piece takes you there to envision the seagulls flying overhead and the waves washing up on the sand while you take a peaceful walk along the beach. Soothing!?.:.?Very peaceful, soothing music. Nice for relaxing and unwinding. Beautiful!?.:."You must be the change you wish to see in the world." -Mahatma Ghandi".:."Imagine placing your conscience within a dandelion, floating on the gentle breezes of a warm summer morning. You float by many wonders that make up fields of dreams. The beauty and splendor of what nature creates is there for you to behold as you are pleasantly carried from place to place. Knowing this peace is a calming experience and will enrich your being. Sailing over the fields of grass and flowers, on over the water that glistens in the early morning sun. Ripples of images in your mind will carry you to a place that you?ll want to return to again and again.?.:.?Oooh. Translucent dreamglo whalesong from Cambridge. Very pretty, very peaceful, very cool. Relax and be gently massaged by electronic machine-angels from beyond time. What a bunch of fluffy hippies. Love it.?.:.?The oxen are slow....but the earth is patient.".:.?As my wife and I sit by the campfire, in the middle of no-were. We Gaze at the stars,and I ask "Do you hear that?"... My wife replies.. "Hear what honey?" I say...."Peace".?.:.?Wow, another classic ambient tune. It is often difficult to find people who really understand ambient. This is lush, smooth and soft. All you need to do is turn the speakers up loud and follow the dream.?.:.?This is such an AWESOME, relaxing song--paints the Millenial Sunset right down the sky. Rating: *~*ToT!*~*? (Tsunami of Tsound highest rating)".:.?I'm standing on the edge of the ocean, and the sun has just begun to fade away from the sky. The tide drifts in slowly, and I drag my toes through the sand making words in a language that has yet to be written... ?.:.?...long and ambient like space debris twinkling in the pitch black void around you as you slowly but without hindrance drift away from your lunar pod, floating out of orbit, contemplating the inevitable emptiness you're facing. This is one song I'd like to put in my bedroom stereo before I go to bed... Beautiful! If you have a quarter of an hour to spare, then step into this space-time shifter and get blissfully lost for a full hour (I *did* say space-time shifter ;).?.:.
