When properly harvested, creativity and imagination can be unlocked to the nth degree with marvelous results. Since there are only four elements in western culture, the Real Music’s Elements Series came to its logical conclusion after the fourth entry. While the label and the artist pieced out what to do next, the light bulb moments came in the question, what if there was a fifth element? And? Now, in Kater’s ears, the heavens are the fifth element. Why not? The cat that owns a lot of real estate in the piano/new age sector has already proven he can do no wrong in the “what is” corridor. Now he’s ruling the “what if” corridor, as well. A set that spiritually takes new age back to its “space is the place” years, Kater brings it forward with spiritual overtones and smart ideas that makes for great stressed out adult listening. A sterling audio tour of the outer cosmos, set your phasers to ooooommmmmmm and plug into the original sounds. Well done.
