GLENN DEARDORFF
Primordial Mariner
CD, Dreamsurge Music, 1998

Glenn Deardorff is a Santa Cruz-based musician working for NASA Ames, who’s debut album "Primordial Mariner" offers almost 72 minutes of grand deep space music.

"Primordial Mariner" contains elements of David Parsons, Jonn Serrie, Michael Stearns and the floating soundworlds of Steve Roach ("The Magnificent Void"), journeying out to the far boundaries of the galaxy were space and time seem to dissolve.
Glenn’s musical approach is adventurous and cinematic, using expansive layers of sounds which generate great impact and trigger the imagination.

The mystic music gains extra body and character due to Steve Roach’s exquisite spacial enhancements, making the gradually evolving music even more transparent and breath.
The fourth track "Turbulent Structures" was composed as soundtrack to a computer animation of modeling turbulence at Nasa Research Center.

I’m not sure if this stunning cd is still available, but if not, it’s absolutely worth a search.
