Fourth Universe

In Fourth Universe, Mark expands on many of the musical ideas first expressed in West Of The Galaxy. Eighteen musical settings showcase the best music from planetarium soundtracks produced during 1986-1991. It has been featured on "Music From The Hearts Of Space" and "Musical Starstreams", and sold thousands of copies throughout the U.S. at Natural Wonders stores.

Mark uses Emulator and synthesizer sounds to create his unique brand of planetarium space music. From the desolate planet-scapes of Mars to flights of fantasy through deep space, the music portrays magnificent visions of the universe, all with the rich textures that are the signature of the Geodesium sound.

This is our best-selling album, recommended for those just starting out. With its variety of styles, Fourth Universe is sure to please nearly every taste.

The commercially-pressed CD is provided in a spine-labeled, shrink-wrapped jewel case, with full-color cover, tray card and disc labeling.
