Musical Sounds Of Relaxation - Celestial Whispers (1989)

Hello, new decade.

Well, I'm sorry for being way late on this one. I discovered this tape like early last year. It's another installment in Musical Sounds Of Relaxation that I had no idea even existed - It's called Celestial Whispers, and it's nothing we haven't  heard, mostly. Side A is an alternate version of Twilight Dawning from Nightwinds. It's much slower, with some added synths and sparkly sounds. Side B is just Crystal Cave - Back To Atlantis by Upper Astral, except without some of the harp overlays. I do kind of like the edits on side A, but it's nothing new.

Enjoy.

Musical Sounds Of Relaxation - Emerald Green (1989)

Here we have yet another great installment in the  Musical Sounds of Relaxation series! Produced by Robert Slap, this is "Emerald Green," another wonderful addition to any new age collection.  Arpeggios, drones, wonderful melodies - what more could you ask for? Besides another tape, "Topaz", we have nearly completed collecting the entire series of tapes. Of course, this depends on if I ever find any copyright data for another release archived online.

Musical Sounds Of Relaxation - High As A Kite (1989)

Very excited to post this one up! I've always loved the Musical Sounds Of Relaxation series, and thanks to some help from Happydogs (who has unearthed more than half the releases on this blog), we have two more additions to this wonderful series!

Here is "High As A Kite", and saying this tape is wonderful is an understatement. It's the same great production you'd expect from robert slap, with the lovely ethereal arpeggios and wonderful melodic synths, and even nature sounds. I favor side A over side B, but they are both absolutely magnificent.

Robert Slap- Oriental Garden (Musical Sounds of Relaxation)

Discovered another Musical Sounds of Relaxation tape I have never heard of before. Briefly listened to it, I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's called Oriental Garden.

Some of the music from this tape was later released as "Oriental Gardens" on a 4 CD set, called "The Ultimate New Age Collection,"  distributed by Distributions Madacy, Inc. in 1994. They have some other New Age releases, which I am to assume are all Robert Slap. Such titles as "I am The Sea", which I think might be "You Are The Sea," and "Winterscapes" might be "Snow Dreams".
