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 credits on the CDs in my collection show that the composer and performer on the CDs is Levantis.
The tracks on this CD are: Past, The Womb of Mother Earth, Expanse of Colour (the title track of this CD) Density of Life, Preservation and Future.
As with the other CDs in the series, Levantis takes some sounds from nature (ambient sounds) such as singing birds, crickets, and blends them into a perfect with some rather gorgeous and lush music.
Unlike some of the so-called relaxing CDs that are on the market which rely on rather weedy electro-pap music created on ill-tuned synthesisers, the music of Levantis is created using real musical sounds, such as piano, pipes, drums, strings, and a well-tuned synthesiser.
The music really does help one unwind and relax after a tough day's work. Put on an "ambient sounds of nature" CD such as Expanse of Colour, and you really can feel the tension and the stress beginning to slip away from you.
Levantis has developed the skill or the art of being able to not only create music that is relaxing but also life-affirming, too. As well as relaxing you, it can also help to cheer you up and to help you bring things into perspective.
Expanse of Colour, the title track, is, of anything, even more thoughtful and relaxing than the other tracks. In all the CD contains an hour of some of the most relaxing music that you can find.
In short, if you ever need to relax yourself, try listening to the CD "Expanse of Colour." I do not think you will be disappointed.
