From The Earth to Mars

Stephen Humphries continues in his excellent tradition of "mid-era" Tangerine Dream (mid 1970s to mid 1980s) style of synth music; his work is a must for the traditional electronic music enthusiast. "From Earth to Mars" enters a very futuristic terrain of Space Music, with turbulent atmospheres, impressive sequencers and melodies between the majestic and the enigmatic. Although there are some slow passages, most of the music has a good rhythm, with a prevalence of the sequencers in the rhythmic structures. The melodies usually are warm, lively, with a certain romantic, symphonic air. There are dark, mysterious passages. Others turn out to be epic, luminous. All the pieces are a clear sample of the excellent talent of the artist.
