Riven (Original Score)

This is billed as "The Sequel to Myst, the most succesful CD-Rom game of all time" and "contains recently recovered D'NI archaelogical information available only on this CD." Not being an archaeologist--or a Myst afficianado--I'm just trying to figure out how to play the game and listen to the disc with only one damn CD-ROM drive; my hands just aren't that quick anymore. Those concerns aside, Miller's brooding, ambient soundwashes do just fine by themselves, though one can't help but discern that this is a genre that hasn't come very far from Eno and Tangerine Dream. --Jerry McCulley
