This record begins with Jeff Pearce's trademark guitar synthesis and a short guitar solo by Serge Devadder, and only gets better as Vidna Obmana contributes his synthesized ambiences to the flow of the piece. This recording verily represents the coming together of two of the finest artists working in the ambient genre. Obmana and Pearce state that True Stories represents the true collaboration between the two of them. It is a departure from both of their current works, in that all the pieces are almost miniature in nature and combine as parts of a puzzle, or, in this case, like the chapters of a book. Their mutual passion for the intimate, serene, and beautiful lead them to where they both were able to pull inspiration from their personal lives and the experiences they share as human beings. They felt that True Stories is such a statement but it also offers the listener a place to dwell. They definitely have created a special thing in True Stories. While this recording stays with their own ambient direction, it is quite possibly one of the best records artistically from either of their catalogs. This recording is also comparable to Jeff Pearce's 2001 Hypnos Recordings release, The Light Beyond. ~ Matt Borghi, Rovi
