Hearing the first notes of "M’Ocean", you can immediately hear Michael’s massive and distinguished sound with which he received world fame a couple of years later with classics like "Chronos" and "Encounter". This piece, "Sirens", was written and performed entirely on an Oberheim OB8-synth immediately Michael took it out of its box. Dear musician, do you recognize this feeling? "M’Ocean" can also be regarded a Michael Stearns classic: from the little symphonies "Sirens" and "Lightplay", the intense ambiences of "Marriage Chords", the sequencer-driven title track and "Fireflies Delight" and the pastoral voices in "Vickey’s Dance" to Igor Stravinsky’s "Walking Song". A real warming-up for all the great things to come. Michael Stearns is one of the biggest names in contemporary electronic music. This early music already shows why.
