Patrick O'Hearn - So Flows The Current (Full Album, 2001)

[@muddyfiftysix]

This is truly my favorite album ever. I will always come back to this. There is nothing that is more soothing yet haunting as this. This brings me a peace but simultaneously a discordant feeling of needing to be better, or rather, to discard my broken self and uplift that which is holy.

[@AbbySmith1231]

I've loved this album for years. I actually had to replace the CD a few times. It's so calm and relaxing. I play it all the time when I need something on in the background. I associate this album most closely to when I was taking summer session at college one year and living in the dorms. It was a hot summer so I'd go study in the park and bring my discman (hey it was summer of 2001) and play this. I'd sit in the park and listen to it all the way through twice, just about the right amount of time to get my studying done. Now every time I listen I go right back to this summer and plenty of other nice memories too. Love his other work as well.

[@HiddenbyLeaves]

The man is a true master - I truly can't imagine having thoughts/feelings or even a broad direction of making this kind of music and O'Hearn keeps doing it.. It's pure brilliance. My personal favorite is the Crying Freeman soundtrack (it's on Ytube) - best whishes !

[@azrael5310]

Ahhhhhh...sweet summer of ‘01. You took me there with you. Thank you. ....so it flowssss 🌬⚛️💚

[@ismaeloswald.6054]

These tunes are beautiful beautiful beautiful.....tnx for sharing, I listen to them over and over....

​@@HiddenbyLeaves Have it. Great soundtrack (from 976-CREOLEMAN)!

I just found this album this year. It's crazy how this album was released 16 years ago. That's real music

[@fredrickberry7004]

Better late than never!

[@ace296703]

im 56 and have been listening to Patrick since i was 16 yrs old ... Anciten Dreams first album

[@Shane7492]

I don't always like to listen to music while I'm in the woods, but I would recommend hiking to a secluded area, setting up a hammock, and listening to this album while you're relaxing with nature and its beauty. Absolutely euphoric. In this moment you'll realize that all is well with the universe.

[@funkyjones]

It's always nice to escape and find peace but if by doing this you find all is well with the universe, you are just deluding yourself. However, for that brief moment I can understand that all is well in YOUR universe, and THAT is where everything starts.

[@sialatorah]

[@woodstock3009]

I was hearing a bunch of mainstream music for about 2 hours today.My mind was running wild,so many thoughts of confusion.So i decided to switch it up and listen to some good old Patrick O'Hearn.Soon as that ambient sound set in,I felt a rush of goosebumps from the top of my shoulders down my fingertips.My mind stood still and this overwhelming sence of euphoria crept in..There is really something sacred about ambient sounds and its frequency.

[@Cinemagoer_64]

No doubt! It is real.

[@xnslrzn]

This makes me feel like I am living my life incorrectly and everything I do is wrong. Patrick's music is pure brilliance.

[@JTLVideo]

I first heard Beyond this Moment on Pandora and was catapulted into bliss. Love it.

[@Lydia_Swenson]

I had the same experience! I was listening to Pandora on a warm spring afternoon with my windows open. I had a dream that was so peaceful that I didn’t want to wake up. When I did though, Beyond This Moment was playing and my curtains were floating with the breeze. This song is magic.

[@IanSMcBride]

Completely blown away by the "Beyond This Moment" track, which starts at 26:14

[@MomentumModular]

I made a music video for it, submitted it to Patrick. He really liked it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6LWe6xrmtqImbM

[@mister8800]

+Ian S. McBride That's one of my favorites too.

[@manooxi327]

agreed

[@ryanvalentine1562]

Ian S. McBride. Me too that's my favorite. Sounds like nostalgia to me..

[@afkghost9758]

I feel the same way. How interesting....

[@sturoc0]

I bought the CD and enjoy listening to it here on YT when I don't have my player or if its not on the PC I am using at the time. Please support Patrick O'Hearn and all his music by buying his releases instead of trying to download or record it here or elsewhere. This will keep him creating new music for all of us to enjoy for years to come

[@billgoodheart1881]

There is a sentimental beauty and relaxation in these songs it clings to me, in a way that I cannot express. I may be young, and reckless, But this song reminds me of the humbleness in my heart.

[@diversifieddame9682]

I first fell in love with Patrick O'Hearn in 1987 when he released "Between Different Worlds" on Windham Hill Records. Last year I bought that album again, but on CD and it wasn't easy to find either. He's simply a wellspring of musical genius

[@fredrickberry7004]

You mean "Between Two Worlds".

[@yasmataz616]

This whole entire album has stunned me to another level. I could listen to this every day for the rest of my life and not get tired of it.

[@jessmckale2794]

My brother and I played this album on repeat when we were in Yosemite a few weeks ago. It's perfection.

[@georgevlavianos1401]

In my humble opinion, Patrick at his best! Who could argue his work isn't spiritual? Even the titles of his albums and tracks alone speak volumes.

[@jmenk1195]

Listening to Pandora at work I stumbled onto A Lovely Place to Be. What a gift. Thank you Patrick.

[@leftoverleaves]

A Lovely Place To Be and Like So Much Lost Time is just utterly astounding.

[@michaelbarela2733]

Yes a lovely place to be is my favorite I keep coming back to listen to a lovely place to be, I've never heard anything like it, it's very different and takes me away

[@marcas167]

Along the waterfront. Absolutely stunning, without doubt my fave track.

[@zumajr8541]

I love that track and The Cold Sea’s Embrace equally for different reasons. They both sound so cold and ominous. Pure brilliance.

[@staciaseven]

Thank You Patrick O'Hearn for creating this masterpiece. I think this album is your opus.❤

[@meganruth7469]

This album keeps me focused when writing papers. Thank You.

[@amsterdamroad]

River's Gonna Rise was always my favorite, but this is his best work, hands down...

[@manogame]

I love the base line in "So Flows The Current" ...

[@Jamallus55]

I love "Quiet time" music.... Thank you, for posting such a splendid collection of songs, by this master of quiet time music...... I can close my eye's and see the world in a different light.... Thank you for the post!

[@ozlemguler4324]

Such a deep album! Patrick O'Hearn is a genius at creating ambience with emotional tones. This album can't help but cause inner reflection and feeling. Simply excellent.

[@katrinao6941]

I’m so fortunate to discover this album. Along The Waterfront is such a deep beautiful composition. I absolutely love it !

[@florafades]

My favorite is Along the Waterfront. wow I am being blown away

[@ambichillproductions7833]

One of the very best ambient artists out there!!!

[@ronaldmarin63]

Como siempre Patrick Ohearn genial en sus composiciones nos logra llevar a otros universos y galaxias, disco obligado a comprar.

[@unusualchannels3206]

I am a music person. I have always been and always will be. I had not heard or noticed Patrick O'Hearn until recently. It is an oversight, but one that is understandable. His music defies convention. By chance I was in a record store, listening to records and I came across the song At First Light and immediately recognized it as the inspiration for Children by Robert Miles, after briefly feeling loss at the death of Robert Miles I knew I should look into O'Hearn. This album presently fascinates me. I agree with many of the other commenters who have noted its brillance and uniqueness.

[@michaelbarela2733]

A lovely place to be is my favorite, its very deep, it takes me away

[@AndyMuellerez2b]

Thanks for posting. Lovely song. I learned of Patrick O'Hearn through Sirius XM satellite radio.

[@Salvo100]

This whole album is totally fantastic, Panning The Sands is mind-blowing on a killer stereo system, try it. I wish Patrick would produce another album just like this one. Thanks for the upload.

[@fredrickberry7004]

I doubt it . He has grown and matured as an artist as well as a man. It's hard to stop progression !

[@leonardofiermonte4010]

One of the most beautiful album of patrick o'hearn!!! I LOVE IT ❤️

[@estrategacorporativo]

Música integra, sofisticada y emotiva. Está en la cumbre de las llamadas "nuevas músicas", nueva era o como se le quiera denominar. Un estilo que tiene una clara bipolaridad; encontramos genios como el mismo O`Hearn, Kitaro, Goodall, Oldfield, Enya, Aeoliah, Himekami, Deuter...y están los que hacen música vacía de originalidad y calidad, insulsos capaces de aburrir a cualquiera.

[@estrategacorporativo]

Excelente disco. La atmosfera siempre elegante y compleja. Descubrí a este genio hace ya 30 años y no me deja de sorprender. Música culta, de verdad.

[@zenmonk5345]

This music transcends all human boundaries

[@kambiziii]

[@keithcosentino]

[@BobbyBermuda1986]

I fantasize when listening to this album (especially A Lovely Place to Be & Beyond This Moment) that one day I'll be invited to a concert of Patrick performing all of these pieces at the Disney Philharmonic concert hall in Downtown Los Angeles.

[@marcelmischeaux2099]

Like So Much Lost Time song on this album really defines Patrick O'hearn composing genius writing. My favorite on this album (from 976-CREOLEMAN)!

MrSeriouslySerious God is truth, and the only truth is infinite Love. Peace with you as well Mr. Serious.

[@sialatorah]

This is his most contemplative work and one of the best. The collaboration with old friend Peter Maunu is spotless and the convergence between both in how to conceive and articulate the music between both is quite obvious. It even works as a long instrumental in the Mike Oldfield fashion, with very blurred boundaries between the tracks. Patrick has to be one of the most unfairly ignored instrumental music masters by the monstrous and demonic industry which favours forgettable and robotic hits from true art.

[@1bionic1]

[@kennethtrayer5565]

I always try to take time to listen and relax . I have had countless people say "that's elevator music" that's boring, "it puts me to sleep" Well it's called peaceful, and usually they NEED to relax and be "bored". No one knows how to sit still anymore and just BE. Here's a suggestion, watch the Nooma videos "NOISE" and "RHYTHM" (just because Rob Bell has weird theology doesn't make the message false.)

[@Joacoleoni]

sublime...

A man will never know what it truly means to be a man until he allows He who created him to show him. This music allows me to deeply reflect upon what He has shown me. Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam.

[@gouldbj]

+Natatatalatalie Wolff I'm also an atheist. the natural world is all any of these people experience and mistake it for supernatural. supernatural is completely unnecessary. The real world is more fascinating because it doesn't include morality and judgement...those are constructs endemic to life forms not the universe as a whole. It is beyond words and understanding but natural.
