Hadn't heard of Ray Lynch until I inquired about the awesome music playing at the Wonders of Life pavillion in Epcot center (Disneyworld). Of course then I HAD to get the album, and I love that it reminds me of such a wonderful place :) Music plays a keen role in memories. ![]() name: Tom V age: 22 profession: Graphic Designer place: Seattle, WA USA time: Saturday, June 17, 2000 at 22:29:28 (EDT) subject: Ray Lynch is Cool Me and my friends found "No Blue Thing," at a library when it first came out, we used it in many home movie soundtracks when we were kids, we were probably the only people who would listen to death metal and Ray Lynch. Electronic music mixed with non-electronic is where it's at. I make music which combines these aspects too, however it is far more darker, less talented, and trip-hop/industrial/death oriented. Rock ON!!!!!!! ![]() name: John Grimes age: 42 profession: Assistant Manger at Wal-Mart place: Ottawa, Ks USA time: Wednesday, June 14, 2000 at 14:41:08 (EDT) subject: Silent Night I love your music. I have several of your cd's and recently d/led Silent Night as an Mp3. I have been looking all over for that cd, because that rendition of Silent Night is the best I've ever heard. Your music is excellent. My wife picked up one of your cd's, I don't remember which now, and I got hooked on Celestial Soda Pop. Can you please tell me what cd Silent Night is on, and where I may obtain it? Thanks for all the wonderful tunes!

I listen to it every morning as i drive to clinical before the sun comes up. Listening to your music while driving in the peaceful dark has the most wonderful effect. it gets me ready to face the day. When will you be coming out with a new CD? Can't wait. ![]() name: sage one age: 53 place: USA time: Wednesday, May 31, 2000 at 12:45:51 (EDT) thank you!

I'm listening to your music, reading all you say on this sight and will call Kathleen soon to discuss how we want to proceed with the show. My show is dedicated to the awakening of the Heart so we'll want to see how we bring Beloved into the conversation. In listening to your music I already felt Beloved penetrating me beyond the mind. Your work is very beautiful. All your ideas are welcome for the show. I'd like to present what ever you feel will most excite our audience and bring them closer to Beloved. ![]() name: Aaron Marshall age: 20 profession: aspiring composer place: Nashville, IN USA website: http://mp3.com/AaronMarshall time: Monday, May 29, 2000 at 02:08:40 (EDT) subject: Ray Lynch's music is a gift to humanity. I first heard Ray Lynch at the age of 9. My brother had the tape and listened to it while painting. I was amazed and inspired. I could feel the emotion in every note. I love Ray Lynch's work. In my opinion he is one of the greatest composers of all time.

So glad you are on the web. ![]() name: Joseph Renard age: 55 profession: Public School Administrator place: Washington, DC USA time: Tuesday, May 23, 2000 at 22:25:49 (EDT) subject: Thank You My wife & I discovered your music while vacationing in Maine with our children about 12 yars ago. We were in a store in Bar Harbour called the Dacning Deer, and we heard the most inspiring and uplifting music ploaying -- it was your Deep Breakfast tape. We bought several -- for ourselves and friends. Since that time, when needing to decompress, uplift or make-up we most often turn to your music. No matter how down or sad, we are always renewed and inspired after listening. Even our now grown children will sit and listen --despite their preferences for the newer music forms! Thank you for sharing -- we look forward to your new works -- they are definitely worth waiting for. ps -- we own all the tapes AND their CD's -- resources well invested on our part. ![]() name: alvin olmedo age: 30 profession: Product Manager, Marketing, Confectioneries place: Quezon City, ph philippines time: Friday, May 19, 2000 at 04:32:53 (EDT) subject: in praise of ray lynch's music hello ray! i'm writing from the islands of the philippines. i just wrote to say that i positively love your music. i am simply dazzled by your artistry in the use of synthesizers and keyboards. your music is an art form, i must say. my personal favorite is "clouds below your knees." "the true spirit of mom & dad" is likewise tops in my list. having read your fan mail, i'm intrigued to buy "deep breakfast." i think i'm going to look for it in the stores the moment i get my chance. in the meantime, please take care and don't lose your ingenuity in making beautiful music. best regards to you and your family, alvin manila, philippines ![]() name: Cherie McWilliams age: 48 profession: Registered Nurse place: Grand Prairie, Tx USA time: Saturday, May 06, 2000 at 00:35:00 (EDT) subject: Thank you Like so many other letters that I read, your music brought peace to me. After my divorce, when the world seemed at odds with me, when I could see no harmony in anything, I would sit and listen to your album Deep Breakfast. I used to play a game. With each song I made up a story, and each one was a peaceful, sweet story. In one, you seemed to use bubbles and the sounds of whales.....in that one I was floating down a river on a raft, looking at the sky through new eyes......and things were right with the world. Thank you for your music....sometimes, it is wonderful just to know that you make a difference.

Now that I am back to Italy I always suggest it to my friends. ![]() name: Charlie age: 14 place: Burnsville, MN USA time: Saturday, April 29, 2000 at 23:47:32 (EDT) I used to listen to your music in the car with Mom & Dad at the age of about 3-5 and I wanted to listen to it all the time. By the age of 12 I was trying to remember what those tunes in my head were from. After looking in old boxes and cars I finaly found it in the back of the glove box. "Beep Breakfast?" I thought to myself. So I poped it in and it all came back. I reamenberd things about the age 3-5 that were long forgotten. Incuding a trip to the apple oacherd that we took with the releteves once a year. Now I found another tape today (age fourteen) called "No Blue thing".Where DO you come up with these names. Anyways, I noteced that you changed the look of the cover from a siple blue cover with a seed/egg shape to two woman looking shapes. I havent listend to it yet but I hope I like it as much as "Deep Breakfast". ![]() name: Albert Keaton Hall age: 11 profession: Don't Got One place: Pewee Valley, KY USA time: Thursday, April 27, 2000 at 21:20:31 (EDT) subject: Hello Dear Mr. Lynch, My name is Keaton and I really love your music. Something about it envokes a certain TWANG . I first found out about you and your music when I was cleaning out the record cabinet and found your Deep Breakfast tape. I instantly loved it and played it continusly. Then my mom "spilled" coffee on it and it was ruined. Then a couple of months ago I purchased your "Best Of" CD and also loved it. I often wonder how many kids like your music I'm sure they woudn't get the Beauty of it. Thank you for your time, A. Keaton Hall ![]() name: Ray Kelly age: 53 profession: Investments place: Murrieta, CA USA website: http://www.brisas.com time: Thursday, April 20, 2000 at 13:59:37 (EDT) subject: Thanks for your music As you are aware, my profession is a small part of who I am. Your music reaches to the deepest parts of me. When people ask me to list my favorite music I start with "Anything by Ray Lynch" and go from there. I needed to find your site to tell you how much I respect your work.

As a once professional musician, I love your music. I've been playing around with it with my present hobby... using it as backgound to video NLE. It seems to work great with my family genealogy, but I have not distributed it. I want to use it only for my family, and only excerpts from two of your renditions.... Tiny Geometries and Oh! Must I pay for something that will not be sold for profit? Certainly, full credit would be given to you. Regardless of your answer...... you're music deserves world-wide recognition. Thanks for your music.

What a gift! I am very pleased to visit your website and finally know a little about the soul who creates such beauty. Your music provokes feeling (for me God Centeredness) and feeds a world controlled by ego where our true purpose is so easily lost and forgotten. I began a journey of self-discovery when my Mom passed. It is a joy to continue on my way with your music playing VERY loud. ![]() name: Andrew O'Dower age: 19 profession: Student/Guitarist place: Kansas City, Missouri USA time: Saturday, April 01, 2000 at 20:13:44 (EST) subject: Awesome Journey Simply put, my spirit has been enlightend by your music. To just sit, close my eyes, and let your music take me to a place in my heart I never knew exsisted is truly a gift I thank you for. Let your spirit flow into more beautiful music for a long time. Thanks ![]() name: Rob Hill age: 29 place: West Lafayette, IN USA time: Thursday, March 30, 2000 at 22:12:53 (EST) I just wanted to let you know I have enjoyed your music for many years.

I realy apreciate your work. I don't really agree with all the "relaxing" music comments in here, I see your music differently. Any way Hope some day you actually get to read all the encouraging words here. Peace, Jared ![]() name: Jeff Johnson age: 34 profession: Computer technician place: Frederick, MD USA time: Monday, March 27, 2000 at 23:53:48 (EST) I don't usually sign guest books, but I simply had to sign this one. I've known your music for many years now and still experience the same wounderful emotions your music evokes as when I first heard it. I had never heard of you before when fifteen years ago I picked up a copy of "Deep Breakfast" and said to myself "I think I'll like this. I think I'll buy it." I didn't know how right I was. I feel so very fortunate that I was guided to that CD on that day because it was on that day that began a love affair that continues even to this day and I anticipate will last for the rest of my life. Once again thank you, thank you, thank you. Please continue composing and publishing. Thank you ![]() name: Kurt Gruninger age: 32 profession: Manager, Dept of Treasury, US Gov't place: Yardville, NJ, NJ USA time: Saturday, March 25, 2000 at 12:29:56 (EST) subject: What are you working on now? I know it is not possible to CONTINUALLY produce music, but your fans are wondering when you're going to put out your next CD. I have enjoyed your work since No Blue Thing, and await your next release with great anticipation. By the way, I have created a fairly good playback system (Lynn speakers and amp & Marantz CD player) one might even call it high-fi; but I agree that your music MUST be heard on a good system to be truely appreciated. THANK YOU FOR THE YEARS OF ENJOYMENT. (More violins and accoustic works in the future please?) -- kurt-- ![]() name: Roberto Spinelli age: 34 profession: Electrical Technician place: Buenos Aires, Argentina time: Friday, March 24, 2000 at 15:30:06 (EST) It’s time to have some mail wrote in other language…Ray’s listeners also exist at the other end of the world.. Antes que nada, el sitio es muy agradable de recorrer; por su atractivo diseño gráfico y porque pocos artistas tienen un contacto con el público de este modo, es decir, explicando la trastienda del proceso creativo y agregando comentarios y anécdotas de su historia. Eso se ve claramente reflejado en el libro de “The Best of...”, cuya lectura es absolutamente deliciosa. Recuerdo que cuando compré el CD, al ver que el libro era “gordo” no pude esperar a llegar a mi casa para leerlo; me detuve en una plaza, me senté en un banco y me puse a leerlo, a pesar de las dificultades con el idioma. La historia que hay allí relacionada con el ratón Ralph es en-cantadora. Probablemente Ray sea conocido en mi país por su música, aunque pocos sepan que esa música es de Ray. Ocurre que en este momento el furor por la música que por comodidad voy a llamar New Age ha pasado. Hacia 1990, una importante emisora de FM de Buenos Aires lanzó al aire un programa diario de una hora de duración, “The clock & the moon” (así, en inglés), seguramente a instancias del entonces Director Artístico de la Radio, que participaba además de un conjunto musical del género. La música de la presentación del programa no era otra que Celestial Soda Pop. El programa -de excelente manufactura- alternaba programación musical del género, tanto acústico como electrónico y a veces bordeando el jazz, con cuentos breves y frases leídas por la locutora con el tono justo para combinar con el clima creado por la música. Esto marcaba un gran contraste con algún otro programa en otra radio que pasaba obras del género pero prescindía del fundamento puramente musical y lo relacionaba con temas de autoayuda, la Era de Acuario, el individualismo y el...consumo. Lamentablemente, “The clock & the moon” estuvo al aire sólo durante unas 160 emisiones. Por aquella época, en Argentina no era fácil acceder a un CD player a un costo razonable; la única manera era grabar desde la radio, pero entonces no pude hacerlo. La oportunidad llegó en 1991. La Radio emitió para la época de Pascuas una programación especial -sin cortes publicitarios- de música del género. La experiencia se repitió en 1992. De aquel tiempo conservo 24 horas de grabación, aunque no sabía concretamente qué obras son y a quién pertenecen. Una de esas horas, y de esto me enteré mucho tiempo después, en 1998, era No Blue Thing. De esa grabación lo que más me interesó es la interesante fusión entre los instrumentos “Clásicos” y el Synclavier. Y sobre todo que los instrumentos eran verdaderos y no sampleados. A partir de eso y de la lectura del libro del CD “The Best of..”, Ray está en mi galería de Favoritos (dentro de 125 títulos de 50 autores) del género. Tanto a mi como a mi esposa (a quien no le gusta tanto el New Age), The Vanished Gardens... nos parece una obra maestra. También invito a todos sus oyentes a que me escriban. Gracias sinceramente por los momentos en que disfruto de su música. Roberto. Before anything, the website is very kind to visit, cause either its graphic design and a few artists have contact with listeners this way, it is, explaining the creative process’ backstage, and adding comments and stories about it. This is clearly visible in the “The Best of...” book, whose reading is absolutely delicious. I remember when I bought the CD, when I saw the book is “fat”, I couldn’t wait to get home to read it; I stopped in a plaza, I took seat in the grass and started to read, instead the difficulties with the language (like now). The story about Ralph in the book is lovely. Probably Ray is known in my country due to his music, even when a few knew that this music is of Ray. It occurs that in this moment, the fever around the music that I’ll call New Age by convenience, has passed away. In 1990, an important FM broadcast in Buenos Aires put into the air a one-hour daily program, ”The Clock & the Moon” (so, in english), surely for instance of the FM’s Artistic Director, who also joined in a New Age band. The program presentation music was just Celestial Soda Pop. That broadcast –Finely wrought- mixed musical programming (both acoustic and electronic, sometimes bordering with jazz) with short stories and maxims read by the speaker, with the exact feeling to combine with the environment created by the music. This thing marked a great contrast with other radio programs, which played New Age music but were no matter about the purely musical leading proposition, and relationed it with the Aquarian Age, self-help, individualism and... merchandising. Lamentably, The clock & the moon was on air 8 months approximately. At that time it were not easy in Argentina to agree to a CD player, and so to a CD at reasonable price; the only possible way was record from the radio, but I could’nt do this that moment. The chance came at Good Friday in1991. The Radio put into air a full-advertisingless New Age broadcasting. The same experience was repeated in 1992. I keep 24 hours of music from this time, although I didn’t know the names nor the authors of that works. One of these works, and I only knew this in 1998, was No Blue Thing. In this record, the thing I encountered most amazing is the interesting fusion between “classical” instruments and Synclavier. And over all, classical instruments were real and not samples. From this and the reading of “Best of..” book, Ray is a part of my favorite’s gallery (within 125 titles of more than 50 authors) of New Age Music. Both me and my wife (Who doesn’t like New Age music), “The Vanished Gardens..” seem a masterpiece. I call anyone interested in New Age to write to me. Sincerely thanks for the moments I enjoy your music. Roberto. ![]() name: Patrick Greer age: 33 place: Greenville, SC USA time: Wednesday, March 22, 2000 at 23:32:07 (EST) subject: Deep Breakfast A friend of mine gave me your Deep Breakfast tape quite a few years ago. Very peaceful and soothing. ![]() name: Christina age: 28 profession: School bus driver/ Homemaker/ Mother place: Wylie, TX USA website: http://www.fortunecity.com/millennium/cedar/index.html time: Saturday, March 18, 2000 at 08:53:42 (EST) subject: Favorite Letters Reading the favorite letters brings absolutely no surprise to me. I, too, have been affected by the beautiful sounds of Deep Breakfast. The music of Ray Lynch was unknown the me until 1995 when my husband introduced me to Deep Breakfast. I was hooked! My first child, a precious baby boy, was born in December of 1998. The early stages of labor were uneventful, but when the time for hard labor arrived...we were in trouble. Both the lives of myself and my son were in jeopary due to complications which have still not been explained to me to this day. I was in danger of having a stroke and Joshua's heartrate continously dropped below critical levels. The words 'emergency cesearean section' were thrown around the room fervently...it was the only way to save both mother and child. Just as the obstetrician was preparing to administer the anesthesia I would need for surgery, my husband pops in our Deep Breakfast CD and the room got quiet. Believe it or not, it was enough to relax me to the point that I was able to deliver my son safely into this world without any further complication. I don't know if Deep Breakfast saved our lives, but it surely saved us from a lot of pain. As for my son, he required little resuscitation before being handed to me. I saw a rosy, glowing, curious little creature...a miracle. He came into life with Deep Breakfast in the background...WHAT AN ENTRANCE!! Thanks be to God for giving Ray Lynch the gift of life through his music. ![]() name: Larry Baker age: 62 profession: Mental Health Educator place: Gig Harbor, Wa USA website: http://www.pebblesinthepond.com time: Sunday, March 12, 2000 at 01:45:45 (EST) subject: The Best of . . . Album I love music . . . all kinds . . .but "The Oh of Pleasure" is very close to the top of my list. We have an excellent sound system in my large classroom and I often play some Ray Lynch or Vivaldi or classical guitar or lute music before class and during our breaks. Some of my students ask that we delay the beginning of class in order to listen to more. I am afraid we have informally retitled "The Oh of Pleasure" and now refer to it as "The Bubble Music." It is so effervescent and life giving. From personal experience, I believe it is virtually impossible to listen to Ray Lynch's music without having one's spirit(s) lifted. Thank you. ![]() name: Julio Manuel Cunha age: 30 profession: Teacher place: Paredes de Coura, Portugal time: Sunday, March 05, 2000 at 21:36:12 (EST) subject: Music Dear Mr Ray Linch, I been listening to your music for some years now, and I'm very happy to be able to tell you (sorry about my english) that your music is one of the most precious gifs that someone may receive.

I once dabbled in "electronic" and "found" music in my college years. It's great to hear the work of someone who kept up the creative work. The unnameable feelings and sensations I get when listening to your work is what it's all about. I look forward to hear more of your work as the years pass. ![]() name: Jeff Gilbert age: 34 profession: Solar Energy Engineer place: Kensington, MD USA time: Friday, February 25, 2000 at 10:39:13 (EST) subject: New Album? Dear Mr. Lynch, I have been enjoying your music for over 15 years. I just put "No Blue Thing" in my CD player, and thought I would find out if I could reach you by internet to say hi, and let you know that your music has added a real richness to my life. To me, your music is an expression of love, and that is what I get present to when I listen to it. Sorry if I am sounding a bit mushy, but it does have that effect on me. I have listened to "Nothing above my shoulders but the evening" countless times. I wonder if anything (shy of Mozart) could top that album (it's that good), but I do look forward the release of a new album from you. Do you have anything in the works? Also, do you ever tour? I live in the Washington, D.C. area, and I would really enjoy experiencing a live performance by you. Sincerely, Jeff Gilbert ![]() name: stephen saco age: 49 place: east syracuse, ny USA time: Thursday, February 24, 2000 at 11:21:18 (EST) subject: new disc? Any upcoming tours and where.

Back in 1988-89, I often listened to "Sky of Mind." I was in a short but extremely intense relationship with someone, and this was one of "our" tapes. The relationship ended bitterly. This is one of the few tapes I still have from such a long time ago. I popped it into my cassette player today for the first time since I can remember. Honestly, I did not expect to enjoy it again, and not only because it reminds me of that relationship. Simply, I thought that your music would seem very new-agey and silly to me now. I was wrong. It still moved me deeply. Music acts as a sort of anchor in a world where there's only an illusion of ground. My thanks to you for creating something which has quieted my mind again. ![]() name: Gary Del Carlo age: 58 profession: Retired place: Cobb Mountain, CA USA time: Thursday, January 20, 2000 at 20:38:55 (EST) subject: Your music While living in San Francisco in the late 80's early 90's I was having trouble sleeping. I turned on the radio one morning (sometime after 3 a.m.) and came upon a radio station that originated from KUSF I believe. This was really the first time I ever heard of New Age Music. I was, and still am, into 50's and 60's rock and roll, country, R&b, but this music was very soothing. It was great to hear music without words. It made my mind relax. I liked the music so much, I started taping it off the radio. Soon, I learned some of the names of the artist(s) and their albums. Artists like, Lucia Hwong, Rubija & Hernandez, Suzanne Ciani, Azuma, Billy Barber, Paul Horn, Himekami, Software, just to mention a few. And of coarse, you....Ray Lynch. The DJ on KUSF was Carlos something or other. I think he came on at 3 a.m. on Sunday morning until 8 a.m. I loved the music so much I would set the alarm for 3 a.m. so I could turn on my tape on to record trhe music. I would set my alarm clock for 45 minutes throughout the morning so I could wake up and turn the tape over and record some more. I think I ended up with about 48 tapes. There were certain people that I wanted to hear more of, your CD's being amongst the first I bought. After moving back up here to Cobb Mountain in 1995, (I lived and went to school here back in the middle to late 50's) I found that I like to take your CD's back up behind me on the mountain, and play them full blast, walk away from where I'm playing them and just listen to the beautiful music echo throughout the forest. Thank you for your music. ~ G@ry ![]() name: Dick Wentland age: 40 profession: Printer/Electronic Prepress place: Cottage Grove , OR USA time: Wednesday, January 19, 2000 at 03:19:10 (EST) subject: NEW ALBUM I love the best of cd.

I always listened to R&B, and Rap with no thoughts of any kind of music. A friend of mine in the barracks let me listen to a copy of Sky of Mind, and I instantly fell in love with the song "Quandra". Kudos to Ray Lynch on making some of the most soothing and thoughtful music I have ever heard. ![]() name: TIM BENNETT profession: RETIRED POLICE OFFICER place: CLEMENTS, MD USA time: Wednesday, January 12, 2000 at 18:36:06 (EST) WE ENJOY DEEP BREAKFEAST AND KATHLEEN'S SONG IS OUR FAVORITE.
