Additional Notes
Ambient Compendium is a compilation of remixed material taken from various Subharmonic and Strata releases. Track 1 on each disc is a program for PC called Fractint (this is why the tracklisting on each disc begins at 2). Track 6 on disc two is the same as ?Najm-Al-Din,? which can be found on both Excursions in Ambience, and the Stoned Heights Divination release, Light in Extension. Track 9 on each CD is previously unreleased.

Enjoy.
