CD Review – Dreaming Time, by Forrest Smithson

If ever there was a CD for putting your cares aside and letting your subconscious drift into a blissful, dreamlike state, this is it.

This lush, ethereal synthesizer opus is one major musical suite divided into four title tracks distinguished by sequential number. The result is flexibility for the listener who may only be able to benefit from one musical therapy session at a time or can maximize use of the entire program.

The tunes and tones are entrancing and hypnotic and can be utilized as catharsis, non-intrusive background music, or just simply pleasant listening.

If your nerves need soothing or you just want to chill out, Forrest Smithson is your go-to guy.
