Bottom/ The Songs Of Distant Earth (Warner Bros, 1994) by English multi-instrumentalist musician and composer Mike Oldfield has ethnic world chants and Native American influences, evoking earlier works such as Ommadawn and Incantations that featured extensive use of chanting and drumming. Oldfield works a style that blends prog-rock, folk, ethnic or world music, classical music, electronic music, New Age and more recently dance. His music is often elaborate and complex in nature. He is best known for his 1973 magnum opus Tubular Bells. Top/ Oldfield's single "Let There Be Light" from The Songs Of Distant Earth shines down on an album inspired by the late Arthur C. Clarke book of the same name.
