"Created using three MiniDisk players on shuffle and loop modes, the sounds produced by dreamSTATE for this installation were pure, deep ambience as originally defined by pioneer Brian Eno: Music that merges with the surroundings to create a different listening experience with every listen. And since it was recorded using an open microphone, sounds from the street and gallery space hum through the mix and merge with the sounds in the listener's environment, blurring the line between realities - just as the title suggests."

Greg Clow - Feedback Monitor

"A little over an hour long, dreamState have come up with one of the finest examples of ambient music this year. In effect, this is one long soundscape in the tradition of David Parsons (Yatra, Himalaya), Steve Roach (any of the longer later solo works), and possibly old man Eno (Discreet Music). Having said this, let me say that this is as good as any of these recordings, and taken from a live, long running installation. ... This will appeal to a lot of ambient fans and no doubt, space music listeners. No dramatics, no groove, no discernible melody. Just classic ambience. Me, I love it."

Hans Stoeve - Power Spot

"BETWEEN REALITIES is definitive ambient music. By that I mean it can be used to literally define the term. ... Highly recommended for ambient and, in my view, space music fans everywhere."

Bill Binkleman - Wind & Wire

"Soft electronic washes phase in and out in an ever-changing state of ebb and flow. Totally beatless and smooth, the lush chords swirl mistily, merging and remerging into different billowing configurations. Trickling water sounds run through several passages, as do occasional waves of rippling electro-distortion. It translates into a dreamy hour-long listen for your own environs."
