A soundscape for the mind. As one enters the barren wasteland one is surrounded by desolation & winds whipping your face & body, you traverse on & everything becomes more & more intense, harsh winds, gravel & dirt pelts your body, pieces of dead trees rip at your clothes,all you can see is desolate barren wasteland but you push on persistent in your course & plan to reach the other side to satisfy your curiousity as to what actually lies on the other side.

Jim Tyrrell said, "This is outstanding. I expected something a little different, having seen the title before listening. This piece is far more sinister than expected. Very nice job creating (and maintaining) a desolate, ominous atmosphere. I especially like the way the guitar(?) line finds its way in around 4:15. "

buzzsaw said, "After departing the furthest shores of the Caspian Sea, Cyzicus states that one will come to the Scythians and an expanse of desert replete with fearsome beasts until the range of the Tabis which rises as a cliff over dark seas, and not until one has travelled an immense length along the stark, unrelenting coastline does one again attain inhabited country, peopled by a race called the Chinese, who live in a walled city called Thina and are known for combing trees for music and steeping the furry bark in water until notes are heard. The bark is steeped again and again until a complete stunning song is rendered, then bottled. As the Chinese are a retiring race, they wait for traders to come to them in their walled city. Thina has long vanished and the technique is lost, but with this triumph, Chris the Phinney has captured it again, and far better. A bravura mix, indeed."
