Comments: Released october 1996, this album forms an excellent unity in itself, and has many memorable moments. Slightly over-produced. Vangelis often makes the impression of taking his music to a higher sphere at some point but often fails to do so, which is a pity. Oceanic sounds commercial and yet isn't commercial. Great music for reading a book at your fireplace during the evening.
