Rememberance
Surrender
Originally released in 1999 and now back in print through our download catalog.

Just in time for Spring's cleansing rebirth, another spacious outing from James Johnson that will decorate your atmosphere with sublime, drifting electronics. Surrender fills almost an hour with gorgeous, soft synthwaves. Highly recommended especially if you are in an introspective mood. (Photography by Stephen Collector)

Reviews:

"Surrender is a seductively original work of art. Richly textured with imaginative sounds and samples and dynamics from liquid textures to ethereal images.... Highly recommended"
Ben Kettlewell, Alternate Music Press

"Rich, textured, organic, & pulsating. Light and dark synth tones drift over an emotionally charged yet languid landscape. Subtle piano figures dot the horizon. Listening to this is like watching weather form both inside and out. This is one of the best ambient albums I've heard."
Brian McWilliams,

"Few, very few CDs I receive in the ambient genre, ever reach me as deeply as Surrender. Few, very few releases earn the right, to be called a masterpiece. Johnson's Surrender is a solid masterpiece. Ambient works collectors who desire to only collect the very best must have this release."
John W. Patterson, EER-MUSIC.com
