Ocean is a milestone from start to finish,from artwork to the last note.The risk was indeed too high,setting to music Socrates dialogues written down by Plato and covering the Atlantis mythological story.All the songs contain extensive use of synths, layers of different kinds of synths are everpresent in the songs. Synths here including hammond and mellotron, to make the description easier. There's floating synths in the back of the soundscapes, synth soloing overlaying or underscoring other instruments, electronically enhanced voices, synth sounds and noises added for effect...and the songs are dominated by this. Fleshing out the soundscapes are some good, excellently played bass lines; high class drumming and percussion from start to finish, and some well planned and performed guitar work, which may sound a bit similar to Pink Floyd at times; but apart from that element the sound here is pretty unique.This release is a "must have" purchase for most people into synth heavy symphonic and spacey prog rock; and anyone fond of long dreamy soundscapes will find this album to be a treat as well.
