A timeless classic by the legend Simon Berry. So many of his productions are just so good. The Clanger remix is also decent.

One of my favourite AoT tunes. It's hauntingly beautiful. The vocals, baseline and pads come together so well. I wonder where the vocal chant came from?

This is one of those few tracks from 1993 that I don't particularly like but respect. It's a pretty unique sounding record for its time (Transparent Mix), it's just sadly also feels so weightless, there's none of the suspense and tension in the chord progression I associate with trance. Someone before me said it's cheesy, it might be another good way to phrase it.
