After Five - Relax - Various Artists

Advantages: Very relaxing
Disadvantages: None

...Expanse of Colour is another CD in the "ambient sounds of nature" series. There seems to be a minor error in the Ciao catalogue. It lists the artistes involved in the "ambient sounds of nature" series as being "various artists."

The concept it very simple, well know trance tracks, mixed with long relaxing beats, it's absolutely brilliant. The whole 2 1/2 hours worth of music spread across 2 discs, fades into each track, from one to the other. This basically means, uninterrupted music! There are various style spread across the whole music journey here. Fast famous trance hits, and amazing mind chilling mixes of newer music. These all bring life and a whole new meaning into your mind as you listen. I rented the CD after seeing a TV advert on sky, I really don’t why I did, but I certainly have no regret against it.
