Ambient

Do you put on Enigma's latest album to set the mood? Put it aside, and get a copy of Ambient for real mood music. If you don't have a significant other, buy the album to find a beautiful world of introspection and reflection. Listen to this album by yourself with the lights off, especially "Bad Days," you will not be disappointed. Moby breaks out of any mold set on him again and makes palatable the quiet, lovely creativity of a musical genius. If you are like me, you love Moby's power voice in other tracks like "Feeling So Real" or "Next is the E," but he has never been as powerful as any chosen track from this album. Let's be blunt- you can put in a Barry White or Marvin Gaye album for mood music, and live in the past- or put in Moby's "Ambient" and experience a sensual, changing world of the senses, a catalyst for whatever you feel now. Moby has always played across the spectrum of emotional charge. In this album, he explores our more quiet, sexual side.

I bought this CD based on the reviews I read here at Amazon. Can't say I'm disappointed but the CD didn't match up nearly to what I had hoped. Don't get me wrong, the CD is good but not great. I own lots of other Ambient CD's and this isn't what I'd rank as one of the best. I'd still recommend buying it, but for a few of my favorite Ambient CD's I'd have to recommend: 1. Quango's Records-Dimensions in Ambience 2 2. Moonshine Records-United States of Ambience 1,2 or 3 ... they're all good, with #1 being my favorite. 3. The Future Sounds of London-Lifeforms 4. Gentle People-Soundtrack for Living. Gentle People is not your typical Ambient. Actually more of a cross between Lounge/70's Groove/Modern electronica/Ambient, but worth note because it always relaxes me yet has a certain sense of energy and to me is just a way cool CD. One of my favorites!
