VISIONS OF WILDERNESS

. . . This compact disc of 42 minutes' length contains six pieces of synthesized electronic music composed and mostly played by Robert Rankin. The sounds and mood of the oceans and rainforests, the desert and the mountains are reflected upon in New Age style. The reproduction of waves rolling on top of one another in Ocean Sunrise was very realistic. The thunderstorms breaking in Lamington Rainforests followed by the birds announcing the sun brought a smile to my face as I recollected pleasant walks in similar places. . .

IMAGES OF AUSTRALIA

It is great to see our magnificent wild places inspiring a response in music. . .

. . . Robert Rankin is already well known as a wilderness photographer. His music, using sound recordings and synthesizer, is in quiet, reflective mood and gives a restful ambience. Tracks are inspired by particular wild places - Kata Tjuta, Mt Bogong, Hinchinbrook Island, Lake Pedder and Mt Barney; and Rankin's fine pictures of these places accompany the CD.
