Ambient Generation - Solar Perfume (2011) + Cover Art

Review by Amazon.com

Ambient Generation (by Matthew Oates) writes music that is soothing, inspiring and atmospheric. Blending chillout melodies with breakbeats, classical atmospheric strings with techno influenced basslines, Ambient Generation produces music that is all about contrast. This is the most recent, and 3rd, album by this artist.

Ambient Generation's Solar Perfume is an album you listen to once and you're immediately hooked. It's a beautiful mellow ambient electronica album that's broken down into three sections as they call it. A Downbeat Section, an Upbeat Section and a Bonus Section.

I like it because you can actually do yoga to it as it's very laidback and mellow. It's quite relaxing. It's sort of touches new age territory but it's just not new age. It does remind me of Vangelis at times; but again, it's not really "New Age". Even though it has an Upbeat Section it's not like it's full on repetitive beats. The other two sections are definitely mellow and downbeat.
