Step Off by Stargarden Stargarden : Step Off.
Huge ambient compositions..


When Stargarden tells you to "step off," it's clear that they mean "off" of the normal platform of daily life, and directly into a big night sky of softly pulsating ambient sounds. Bobby Devito has a real talent for juxtaposing interesting sonic patterns, which then somehow become these ever-expanding and shrinking sound forms and give his music a natural, even organic quality. It's ambient/space music, sure, but it's very structured, so it lends itself well to studying and working. Tracks we particularly like include "From Here to There," "Anger Management," and "The Dream Is Alive."
