Reviewed 2004-11-06
Tibetan nun Drolma and Minnesota musician Tibbetts team up for their 2nd release. It combines chanting in a nasally (though soothing) voice w/electronica, guitar, drums, and the wonders of programming. The result is new age music for intellectuals. The overall effect is positively sleep-making. It’s lovely, though, with a sense of peace & spiritualism. It’s a relaxed, calming, mug of warm Zen milk. Watch for silence at end of many tracks.

1. Slow & introspective. Short, can lead into #2.
*2. Drones you into a sense of peace.
*3. Guitar, perc, nice vocals. A sweet, warm feeling.
4. Slow, spare, relaxed.
5. Relaxed & peaceful w/moments of silence.
*6. A nice sound w/vocals, claps, perc. It lulls you.
7. Peaceful and slow w/some nice vocal passages.
*8. Passages of slow drama & layers of vocals.
9. Warm vocals, gentle sounds, quiet, calm.
10. Sounds a lot like #9, with the same sense of calm.
*11. A capella chanting. Nice feeling of spirituality.
