When Japanese electronic music master Aiki Domo creates a new album project, you know it will (at the least) be an intriguing musical work of art. Usually it will be something worth treasuring. But when the album entails a collaboration with the renowned European synthesist Hans-Wolfgang Von Heldenleben, something very special indeed is in the works. Thus was born "Vista".
"Vista is an album of space music so radiantly pure and celestial that it's hard to say much about it -- you simply have to let yourself go to the exquisite realms the music portrays and linger there. On the surface it's mostly synthesizer, with an angelic contribution by Celtic harpist Kim Robertson on one piece and some electric guitar on another. Japanese electronic musician Aki Domo collaborates here with European synthesist Hans-Wolfgang von Heldenleben and the results are very special. Serene and beautiful, this is music for floating, hovering and dreaming." - Backroads Music/Heartbeats

I'd like to thank those who have made this amazing synth-gem available in digital format (excellent sound) from the classic Vista album from circa 1984. At the time it was only available in cassette format and I've since worn that out over the years. In particular, the track Sea-Search is the quintessential style from that time period--it's so uplifting in a majestic-transcendent way. If you want to know what the magic of that time period was like don't hesitate to grab this one!

The sounds on this album generate feelings of the vast power held just below the surface of a seemingly calm Mother Nature. Its musical intensity stimilates moods which can carry the listener through the depths of the earth, to the lofiest heights of Heaven...
