Myths & Legends

Myths and Legends by David Arkenstone has two CDs. The second CD was designed by D.A. to provide ambient background sound for the first CD. The second CD has a track for track match with the first CD. However, you have to be a legendary DJ with a mixing board and two CD players that can be launched at precisely the same time to get the two CDs to blend their sound together. There is a bonus DVD included that has music videos of all the Myths and Legends tracks. So, if you are a DJ into new age music, then you will love this package. Otherwise, the music itself is of average to good Arkenstone.

This is really interesting concept - you play the two CDs at the same time to get the "complete" musical experience. I never quite seem to get them started at exactly the same time, but that actually seems to add to the experience. The DVD is not a smooth video, but a series of pictures meant to compliment the music. I loved this!

Inspiring and energizing; great background music for working on a deadline.

I love David Arkenstones work. He creates music that makes you feel like you're in a different world. In this particular CD the only thing I would have wished different is to remove the small amount of narration. I couldn't understand what he was saying, so it was a bit distracting. Otherwise it's great right-brain music. You easily lose yourself in it.

I enjoyed and would recommend them to women looking for a feminine side of spiritualty.Chris

When I reviewed the samples of the music, it indicated there were 24 songs on the CD. When I received to 2 CD set there were 9 songs listed on the jacket. When I look at the instructions it said I had to use 2 different CD players and sync the tracks together. I was interested in the music that David Ankenstone wrote. I did NOT want to go through the process of connecting 2 different CD players. This information was NOT included in the discription of this CD. The sampler misleads you in believing there are 24 songs on the album. When I went to return the CD I was informed it would cost me approximately $10.00 because I opened the CD. I was truly disspointed.Myths and LegendsDavid Arkenstone | Format: Audio CD

Relaxing soothing music from an extremely talented composer.

Some tracks calm you, and others make you want to go out on an adventure. I have always been a fan of both Arkenstones.

this proved to be beyond my expectations. Awesome stuff by an awesome performer ....Recommended to all New Age music lovers without hesitation - go on, treat yourself!!

Ich besitze alle CDs/DVDs von David Arkenstone, dieses Werk gehört wieder zu den Besseren und setzt seine musikalischen Traumreisen fort. Ich kann es jedem nur Empfehlen, genauso wie "In the Wake of the Wind", "Quest of the Dream Warrior", "The Return of the Guardians".David schafft es immer wieder einmalige Werke zu erschaffen, die es einem ermöglichen den Alltag zu verlassen und den Zauber und das besondere der Welt wieder zu spüren. Denn dies vermittelt er sehr oft mit seinen Reisen. Er animiert Menschen dazu die Augen aufzumachen. Und das ist gut so.Die DVD enthält eine zum Teil bildgewaltige Reise mit extrem schönen und teils sehr ungewöhnlichen Landschaftsaufnahmen. Es gibt Aufnahmen bei denen man sich fragt, ob die Bilder wirklich von der Erde stammen. So ist die Stimmung die zeitweise vermittelt wird.Die DVD ist Dolby Digital 5.1 was klanglich sehr schön ist, da der ganze Raum mit dem Klangfeld ausgefüllt wird.Die 2.CD ermöglicht es, wenn man keinen DVD Player hat, einen ähnlichen Effekt zu erzeugen. Indem man einen 2.CD Player hinter sich stellt und die CD Synchron zur ersten abspielt.Ist sehr ungewöhnlich und habe ich so noch nie gesehen.Aber auch früher hatte er schon mit Dolby Surround etc. expermientiert (z.B. in seinem Werk - Another Star in the Sky). Das macht einige seiner CDs noch mehr zu etwas besonderem.

Die Dvd hat einen mächtigen Surroundsound.Die Filmchen (z. T. Mit David Arkenstone) sind jedoch von recht dürftiger Qualität.Daher nur 4von 5.
