WOW!!! We've run across each twice in one week on the net and we only live two miles from each other!! I think of you every time I'm on my way heading east on RT. 926 across the Brandywine and I really need to turn off and look for your place one of these times. Let me know your house # and I will do that!! Great seeing your site and hearing the music...Peter P.

Greetings Richard,

Thought I would take the time to actually comment on the music you are bringing forth.
Did I ever tell you how much I am enjoying "Elysium". I like the spareness and clarity of the soundscapes.
"Cylces" and "Elysium"
flow very well into each other and I often listen to them back to back.
For anyone wanting to give Christmas presents - Cylces and Elysium would make an excellent gift for the music lover on your list.

Enjoy the Season!



Many Blessings on You and Yours!



Journey Well!
