Comments (as published by SSU on the Greytsounds website):

Sound Source presents another wildly bizarre patch library for Wavestation artists with Volume 2 of our critically acclaimed Vector Atmospheres. This is an intense collection of ethereal, disturbing and sometimes nightmarish textures. These unusual sounds are eminently useful for all types of film scoring and aggressive new age music applications. However, this bank is also a grab-bag for artists on the cutting edge who delve into industrial or other effects-oriented genres. And given the alternative nature of the material, nearly all selections are musically useful, with electric pianos, deep basses, stylistic horns and surging strings.
Sounds include "Anarchy Cuisine", "Timeworm", "Quasi Rendezvous", "Mean Tongue", "Belew Me Away", "Cyber Dream", "Predator", and much more!

Comments (as published by SSU in their 1992-93 catalogue):

This amazing bank continues the bizarre tradition of our popular Volume 1 bank of the same name. Includes several science-fiction inspired textures that are perfect for most types of film scoring work. New age artists will also find plenty to work with. It has all the breathy pads, evolving soundscapes, sound effects and unusual instrument variations that you expect from your Wavestation, plus so much more! Sounds include "Anarchy Cuisine", "Mean Tongue", "Paranoid Finale", "Predator", and more.
