"…an exotic, fluid aural landscape that seems to move from African percussives to minimalistic spaciness with seamless ease..." -CD Review Magazine
“In my opinion, the best release from Hearts of Space excellent catalog. Just a masterpiece of moody introspection from beginning to end. Danna & Clement collaborations are stellar and this one is top notch.”
-Jeffrey Caballero

Episode #56 of Ambient Soundbath was a spotlight on Danna & Clément. Thanks to Matt Borghi for this special feature on his most excellent podcast.
Inspired by the solar eclipse, ‘Darkness at Noon’ was the first song written and recorded by the duo of Mychael Danna & Tim Clément back in 1976. The piece won a CBC Radio competition, granting them studio recording time during which they recorded their debut self-titled album youtu.be/iMP_sisRK5I
“Danna & Clément's romantic minimalism is perfectly embodied in this album. The remastered and remixed release of North of Niagara is exquisitely produced and repackaged to enhance the excellence of the recording and compositions. A true masterpiece!”
