Quantity in Basket:

A Sacred Sound Elixir of Electronica and Chant.
If you think you know the music of Jai Uttal, then get ready for a surprising adventure into uncharted
territory. When remix artist Rara Avis of Shaman's Dream began to break down Jai's devotional classics in
his Los Angeles studio, he discovered a hidden side to the kirtan that was "dripping with funk." With
Dial M for Mantra, Jai's soulful chant takes a metamorphic trip through the alchemical labs of a
world music innovator --and emerges as delicious, downtempo "kirtronica."
CD, 62 minutes

I first composed this music for myself as an adjunct to meditation,T'ai Chi,bodywork,and as music to play in the background of life—to replace the everyday cacophony with new and ordered sounds of an unpredictable nature. New sounds freed from preconception… I hope you find as much use for this music as I have in both writing and listening to it and exploring inner spaces.”

Moon on the Water, CD, Stan Richardson
Price: $18.98

It is the music of utter stillness and complete spaciousness—the perfect reflection of self within the universe, and the universe within the self. There is no finer instrument for capturing this music of Zen than the shakuhachi bamboo flute, the instrument which Stan Richardson has dedicated his life to master. With Moon on the Water, Richardson offers two musical experiences. On the first CD, listeners enjoy the pure tones of the solo shakuhachi, as it has been played for centuries. For the second CD, Stan Richardson combines natural sounds recorded during his travels across the Japanese countryside—the rushing of water, the wind over waves, the singing of cranes—with the beauty of the bamboo flute.
Pure and elegant, intricate and subtle—Moon on the Water invokes the Zen mind, and makes for the perfect musical complement to massage and bodywork, yoga, and any moment of peaceful contemplation.
