[FONT=&quot]Yani……………………………Touch Of Truth[/FONT]

Yani has produced many new age albums which have all had a great relaxing feel to them. He is an ethereal performer who has not always gained the recognition he should within the wider musical world. Many progressive rock musicians came of age within new age music and found a new audience, not so Yani, he was only ever associated with this genre .


Track One Truth Of Touch A gentle relaxing track with feel that could induce a meditative state. Perhaps this track can also give a Greek Island feel to the meditator.


Track Two Echo Of A Dream Gentle rippling keyboards, inducing a cogitative state of mind.


Track Three Seasons Music for mind travel and relaxation, listening, induces a sense of well being and connection with nature in the best of new age traditions.


Track Four Voyage This is almost lounge music in its style , relaxing but dramatic, just the thing to cill out to.


Track Five Flash Of Color This colour has flashes of Asia and Africa within it.


Track Six Vertigo Made me feel that I was on top of a tall building and swaying around


Track Seven Nine Nice ethereal start to an energetic track ,this could be the sound track to a fast paced journey of some kind.


Track Eight Can’t Wait Comfortable paced vocal, personal theme and good execution.


Track Nine Guilty Pleasure Ambient , gentle rhythms, make this good track. It feels relaxed and gain exudes that sense of well being that new age can give.


Track Ten O Luce Che Brilla Nell Oscurita Sounds like Italian to me and it’s as the kind of edge that Luciano Pavarotti could add to a song.


Track Eleven Long Way Home. This is a more tradition gentle rock approach, which still as its appeal.
Maybe this is a little like Vangelis!


Track Twelve Yani & Arturo Brass and piano seamlessly blended together, East meets West, tradition and future Yin and Yani?……………………………Pure Magic eh !


Track Thirteen Mist Of A Kiss . Romantic music with a Greek feel. The piano looms large here and leads the piece ……………………………..chill to this, it is what this music is for.


Track Fourteen Secret. A vocal to finish, gentle and enchanting.


age is too much of a minority taste here on MD but this album could introduce the idea to a wider audience.

[Music Head]

ok, this is beautiful music for the most part
my grading system is based on whether I would buy the product
I would not buy this
This is background noise for me
The only background noise I would intentionaly buy, is classical music
If someone were to put intelligent lyrics to this music, it would score way up there.
There are 3 tracks with vocals here, Can't Wait and Secret, both with female vocal I liked, the other with a bunch of letters forming words that are foreign to me, I did not like.
Always think it's funny how they come up with song names for instrumental music.
Shouldn't they just be called #1 #2, #3, etc.

Grade - 1.1
