Projekt Records inaugurates an ongoing reissue series of 13 influential works from American electronic ambient composer Michael Stearns, starting with this groundbreaking and long out-of-print 1981 album. Featuring the sound of the Serge Modular Synthesizer in 6 movements, the slowly evolving atmospheric swirls of this early spacemusic classic are a journey within inner and outer space.

His essential masterpiece tells the story of the cosmos not with words but with mighty, emotional sonics, as powerful today as 41 years ago. From our subatomic origins to our intergalactic destiny, the universe is made of sound held together through resonance where atoms, cells, oceans, plants, animals and humans are all part of a complex orchestration.

Stearns is one of the first Americans to tune his synthesizers to the "key of space," adding a Californian earth-sensitivity to the mix.

"Michael Stearns' Planetary Unfolding defines the word breathtaking. He doesn't just take you somewhere, he makes you hear music differently, taking you deep into the vibration of sound. Planetary Unfolding transforms the space of your listening and your mind. It's a monumental work of ambient music." -- John Diliberto, Echoes Radio.

An absolute must-have album loved and long sought-after by fans of the finest electronic music has to offer.
