Beautiful, profound endeavor...

Rare Prog | La Mesa, CA USA | 09/02/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Forrest Fang is in top form on this album, creating a haunting, mesmerizing "ancient" Eastern sound blended with the modern compositional techniques of the "ethno-ambient" genre using strings, winds, various percussion, and electronics. Similar in feel to his masterpiece "The Wolf at the Ruins" (soon to be re-released). Robert Rich and Steve Roach join Forrest on "Folklore", adding their flavor to an already rich mix of both beautiful Eastern melodies (particularly "Falling Stones") and earthy ambient textures."
