Free Music Notes for A Passage In Time
Free Music Review: Enigma of the Absolute-Great Gothic Classic
Hit: 5 Stars
A Passage In Time is a good starting point for those wishing to experience the variety of DCD's music. It begins with Saltarello, a medievil-celtic instumental. Other notable pieces are Cantara an etherial gothic instrumental that is strangely accompanied by Lisa Gerard, as there are no lyrics. Garden of Zephrius and Bird are two delighful pieces with bird songs. Enigma of the Absolute is my favorite piece and is classical gothic. It is one of the most powerful pieces of music I have ever heard. Accompanied by Brendan Perry, the orchestral base in this piece make it truely enigmatic. I would recommend the CD to anyone who wishes to expand their apreciation of music beyond the celtic, new age, folk genre. I give it a five star rating.Free Music Review: Before Enigma/Deep Forest/Delerium there was... DCD!!

Took me a while to really get into Dead Can Dance but now I can't imagine not having them in my CD collection. I've always loved exotic, ambient and meditative music and Dead Can Dance are unlike anything else I've heard. This compilation consists of a rich mixture of tribal, choir, medievil gothic, world and ambient soundscape. I don't feel it's fair to categorise DCD as merely 'new age' or 'gothic' when it is both and a whole lot more. I've hunted for music like this for so long before I was even aware of DCD and it's all here. Very raw, minimal, sensual and soothing without being ruined by added layered synths and electronica. Stripped down and peaceful. One of the best CDs I own.Free Music Review: From a first listen...

My daughter brought the CD on a recent road trip, hoping I would like it as much as she does. While this disk isn't one I would be likely to choose for driving tunes, when I got it home and could listen to it more carefully, I discovered a rich sound full of movement and color for the imagination.
The mixture of music types flows from culture to culture, touching on legends and myths allowing us to sample places and times we may otherwise miss. As soon as I return her CD, I will be making a purchase (or two) and start my own collection of Dead Can Dance.
Free Music Review: Hauting and mesmerizing ...as usual!

Is it ethereal, atmospheric, gothic, dark, ambient or world music? The Dead Can Dance style is all of these genres and more. Celestial and refined to say the least, DCD's music touches all senses. If harmony of heavenly voices, celtic chants, profound lyrics, and captivating music ever existed...it has the Dead Can Dance "ex-libris" all over it. This album includes some of DCD's best material...an album that asserts the DCD as the most evolutionary band of all times.Free Music Review: Music from another world, another time...

This CD is a tapestry of ambiant, foriegn, primal, and pristine sound. I hear fragments of styles that hint of Jim Morrison's haunting poetic vocals and even Joy Division's incessant beat. There is also chanting, exotic rhythms, and rennaisance sounding period dance music. Despite this wide array of styles, it is all weaved into a perfectly seemles journey of sound. For those who have an electic taste in music this is truly unique and wonderful.
