ECHOES FROM THE EDGE OF THE MILLENNIUM: 1987-1999

Virtually none of the songs on this CD have been available before, as they are either remixes, demoes or just previously unreleased in any format. Magus is for the most part Andrew Robinson, although others do make valuable contributions. He appears now to again have a band around him so the future looks bright. I have always enjoyed his albums, and this collection gives the opportunity to look over the length of his recording career. While most of it is instrumental, it manages to maintain interest throughout, sometimes using samples or tactile ideas. The guitars and keyboards work in perfect harmony, and it is possible to just close the eyes and drift into this surreal world and become part of it.
