"The Endless Vista" is a collaboration between Robert Carty and the music
artist Sylken . These are  deep sonic tapestries for the mind and spirit. The
music is lush and dense leaving one lost in swirling vibrations like floating in
a vast ocean of sound. This music can transport you to inner reaches of
meditation and reflection as well as a relaxing hour of bliss.

Just a couple of weeks ago I received "The Endless Vista", the new album by talented ambient
musician Robert Carty for which he collaborated with Canadian artist Sylken aka Eric Hopper. The
title track starts out with beautiful soothing space textures, leading the way to five more tracks of
freeform soundscapes, all described as "meditations on creation, the cosmic expanse". It’s harmony,
balance, and dreamy atmospheres that form the red line through this album, music to reflect and
contemplate with. Within all tracks "Desire of the Ages" is a perfect soothing, cosmic travelogue to
warm the soul and make the mind settle down, followed by the even stronger, glowing space trip
"Of Space and Time". Both musicians have done well, so make sure to check things out and order
at their website. © Bert Strolenberg
