CD Review

"John Lennon once sang "Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream".
Stray Theories new ambient album "Oceans Vol 1" is definitely relaxing, but you wouldn't want to turn off your mind while listening to it because you'd miss so much of the beauty and intricacy of this wonderful album.
Although a nice float downstream might follow a set path, the ocean is a different kettle of fish entirely and full of strange and unpredictable currents. Ambient music this may be, but not without frequent reminders of the colder, darker waters that move beneath the ocean's often-tranquil surface.
Smooth textures, lush pads and full-bodied strings, piano melodies that are delicate and haunting. These are the trademarks of Stray Theories, a sound he has spent years honing and refining. And believe me, it shows - this is his finest work yet."

MarieEllen says

Remember me( piano version)...I was totally absorbed by this piece of music. Being such an easily distracted person, I find it difficult to become totally absorbed. I have listened to several of your tracks and they are all so multi-faceted...Alone triggered many emotions in me...in fact, I returned to have my emotions triggered several more times by this piece...

Shattered 2 Pieces says

One of my favorite artists on this site. I lose myself into the music, well crafted and mixed, and go to a place of my own. My favorite track is "Here I was"...I find myself putting alot of my own personal experiences into the piece. That is the beauty of instrumental works, the listener can make the song their own...a place in time where the music fits and you relive the experience all over through that song. It's been over a year now that I listened to one of his tracks for the first time, and i'm still listening today:)
