NOTES:
Best of David Arkenstone feels a little
hurried. It only draws from five of the new
age giant's Narada releases, including three
selections from 1987's Valley in the Clouds
and two songs each from Another Star in the
Sky (1994) and Quest of the Dream Warrior
(1995). There's no liner information to speak
of, and its ten tracks all appear on the
two-disc Arkenstone compendium from 2002,
Visionary: The Ultimate Narada Collection.
This means the set's probably meant as an
Arkenstone calling card for listeners drawn in
by his Grammy-nominated (and richly imagined)
2004 release, Atlantis: A Symphonic Journey.
Which is fine, because it works well as such
an abstract. Opener "Valley in the Clouds"
establishes Arkenstone's flair for mixing
gentle rhythms with mysticism, while "Under
the Canopy"'s woodwinds and faraway nature
effects travel on a pleasant South Pacific
breeze. "A Thousand Small Gold Bells" (from
the 1993 Narada compilation Earth Songs) is
tranquil but for its triumphant,
cymbal-smashing chorus break; your point of
view suddenly shifts to a sweeping aerial shot
of the Himalayas. Other Best of David
Arkenstone highlights include the plaintive
ballad "Another Star in the Sky," "Magic
Forest"'s swirling synths and wordless vocal,
and "Southern Cross," which might feature the
set's strongest melody. Arkenstone devotees
will already have everything here. But for
anyone just discovering him, it's a nice
primer.
