feast for the mind, August 27, 2001 Reviewer: David Roy from Vancouver, BC Mars Lasar is a master of mood. He can create so many different kinds that you can buy his entire catalogue and then find one that matches your mood at the time. Escape is a visual feast. Just to give two examples, using the two pieces I'm listening to while I write this review: Moonlight Cove really does take you to the shore in the deepest night, with only the moon shining down on you and lighting your way. You're sitting in the moonlight, watching the water move out on the water. The peace that only nature can give you is evoked by this song. On the other hand, Sensuality makes you imagine a lover and you, walking through the forest, reveling in your togetherness. Just enjoying being with each other, without any other part of the world intruding. I can't say enough about this CD. The blurb on the back of it says it best: "So appropriately titled, this album offers a true escape into the unfettered realm of the imagination." Not only does it offer that escape, but it actually takes you on that journey itself. I don't think it's any accident that I feel most creative when I'm listening to this CD. It really does unleash the imagination. I only wish it was as long as the Eleventh Hour. 60 minutes just seems too short for this. |

and escape to well composed original music by Lasar., July 15, 1999 Reviewer: A music fan from UK This album has the most amazing of tracks. 'Walkabout' is what I would rate as the best ethnic instrument combined with modern sounds based track I've heard. At first this might feel 'easy listening' in many ways, but forget this and listen to the emotion and direction of the music (yet some tracks still bear similarity to styles on 11:02 and other albums). Forget about 'in styles' and 'attitude' which limits much modern music you hear that has to 'conform' to genre. Listen to and experience what the music makes you feel - escape! New Comer to Lasar? I've got nearly all Lasar's albums. If you're more into Rock, try 11:02 or The Eleventh Hour first, but try this first if you tend to listen to Classical or New Age. Otherwise - buy both! |

June 17, 1999 Reviewer: A music fan from Florida, USA This CD truly provoked my interest in Mars Lasar's music. This is the best of all his CD's and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys good music. |
