I thought some of you may like these.

Some good stuff here! Very low-key, electronic, ambient, but enough happening for repeat listens. I like the guitar work in some of the tracks.

Listening again right now. Those Bjorn Lynne tracks really hooked me! I like them so much I went ahead and bought his "Soothe" DVD. Found out it's more etherial and restrained than the free tracks, which have drums, guitars and generally a lot more action. It's very good in its own right though. Very active and immersive mixing throughout, on both the free tracks and the DVD.

If you try to download the tracks from his site, you may find that the links for the 14-minute "Voyager" are dead. It's available here:

And here:

The link above also features the 5.1 mix of the song "Beneath another Sky", which is not available on the Lynne site.

The free tracks alone easily amount to an album's worth of music (over 60 minutes).

Enjoy!

Thanks Matt,

This is quite Proggy. Even though it is derivative in spots it is still very enjoyable. On a quick listen through I hear shades of Pink Floyd, Genesis - The Lamb, Yes, Dream Theater, The Beatles and a few others in there. The album artwork is another take on Roger Dean's Relayer cover. Very nice, worth a deeper look.
