NO DEPRESSION MAGAZINE
"Thanks to so much homogenized music populating the airwaves, country-pop has somewhat of a bad name but it needn't be that way, as this record by Richmond, Virginia singer Janet Martin proves."

Album Description
CLOUD COVER is the debut of the newest ambient music project on Aucourant Records - FOUNTAINHEAD - the creative inspiration of well known ambient music composer Robert Scott Thompson. This recording, just under 70 minutes in duration, features a beautiful collection of nine tracks of classical ambient music. The title track is 18 minutes long and envelopes the listener in a floating, elegant, sonic reverie. Other tracks feature propulsive, yet subtle, percussion. A wonderfully balanced album which flows together perfectly in its uniquely defined sound space.One of the basic tenets of classical ambient music is that it can be listened to on a number of levels, from rapt attention to the casual perception of the music as background sound. At each level of listening awareness different qualities and attributes of the music are revealed. This aspect, combined with the exquisite composition of the music itself, creates a CD that will attract considerable response from radio audiences and private listeners alike. CLOUD COVER is a fine addition to our growing catalog of ambient music and will find a permanent place in the collections of all ambient music connoisseurs.
Customer Reviews:
A superb album by a music visionary!.......2000-06-07
It's a journey again to other times and other places where worlds merge and blend into each other, then diverge again and drift apart in a kind of interdimensional shift! The music has at times an eerie effect to it, an alien feel as if it were being broadcast from a cosmic, archetypal repository of delicately and exquisitely crafted sound structures. Each track has its own distinctive character with mesmerizing electronics emanating from deep within, blending with tibetan bowls in places and altogether sculpting a sonic landscape where mystery and alchemy mix and give rise to states of mind where the natural shapeshifts into the supernatural and travels a path never explored before!
The music has some slow-evolving, tense moments but then picks up speed and metamorphoses into magnificent sounding passages that give one the impression that something horribly significant and ominous is being worked out, a truth of cosmic proportions is being prepared to be revealed and the listener's mind gyrates in awe and in anticipation of this imminent apocalypse!
Music usually can serve as a mood altering medium but the way R.S.T. uses sound results in a complete transfer of mind to a surreal level where all the limits lift and experience becomes unconstrained and free to expand and move into the "imaginal", a realm between fact and fantasy!
R.S.T is a master artist, a whimsical sorcerer of sound, a designer of dreams made of pure vibration. It would be hard to listen to his work and not immediately recognize the genius behind it. Cloud Cover gets better with each listen as different and subtler elements and nuances of the music become apparent and to fully appreciate the depth and value of this album one has to devote some time to it, feel it, touch it and assimilate it until one becomes so familiar with it, you can almost call it home!
