Amani Friend (one half of the duo Desert Dwellers) and Bente Friend team up for a deep, reverberated stew of natural ambience and percussive groove titled SHAMAN'S EYE. The music has a very ancient, earthy quality, with environmental sounds providing a backdrop, tribal drumbeats for pace and a mix of drone instrumentation, flutes and vocal tones/chants (including Native chant, Tibetan overtones and shamanic vocal sounds). The album was designed to induce trance states within the listener, and utilizes rhythms measuring 4-7 cycles per second to generate brainwave states in the theta range. With its multi-layered soundscapes and natural holistic qualities, the music is ideal for creating a space for healing, prayer or seeking higher consciousness. Includes contributions from Robert Mirabal, Rara Avis, Domonic Dean Breaux and Jim McGrath, among others. |
