Review by Adriano Sousa

The Golden Voyage, the collaborative album by Robert Bearns and Ron Dexter, is a rich and immersive sonic journey that blends elements of electronic music, ambient soundscapes, and world music influences. The album features a diverse range of textures and moods, from the shimmering, dreamlike opening track "Aurora Borealis" to the hypnotic rhythms and pulsating synths of "The Golden Voyage."

Throughout the album, Bearns and Dexter showcase their skills as both composers and sound designers, creating intricate sonic landscapes that are both ethereal and grounded in earthly rhythms. The album's standout tracks include "Sands of Time," a haunting and evocative piece that blends Middle Eastern melodies with electronic beats and atmospheric textures, and "The Last Sunset," a soaring and cinematic track that builds to a powerful climax.
